By á-170456

Ingredients

• 4 cups milk
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup grits - (not instant)
• 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese - (abt 4 oz)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• Kosher salt to taste
• Freshly-ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

In a saucepan over high heat, bring the milk and water to a boil. Whisking constantly, gradually add the grits. Reduce the heat to medium-low; the grits should be at a slow simmer. Cook, whisking occasionally, until the grits are soft and creamy, about 1 hour.

Add the cheese and butter and whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the grits are too thick, add water until they reach the desired consistency.
