My notes

Method

  1. 1

    1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the milk and water and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    2. Slowly whisk in the stone-ground grits in a steady stream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

  3. 3

    3. Reduce the heat to low, cover partially, and cook low 35–40 min, stirring every few minutes and scraping the bottom of the pan, until the grits are tender and creamy and no longer gritty on the tongue.

  4. 4

    4. In the last few minutes of cooking, stir in the minced garlic so it softens without burning.

  5. 5

    5. Remove from the heat and finish with butter + goat cheese, stirring until fully melted and incorporated.

  6. 6

    6. Season with salt and white pepper to taste. If the grits are too thick, whisk in a splash of warm milk or water to loosen.

  7. 7

    7. Serve immediately while hot, as grits thicken quickly as they cool.
