Steps:
- Place the milk, water, and salt into a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once the milk mixture comes to a boil, gradually add the cornmeal while continually whisking. Once all of the cornmeal has been incorporated, decrease the heat to low and cover. Remove lid and whisk frequently, every 3 to 4 minutes, to prevent grits from sticking or forming lumps; make sure to get into corners of pot when whisking. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes or until mixture is creamy.
- Remove from the heat, add the pepper and butter, and whisk to combine. Once the butter is melted, gradually whisk in the cheese a little at a time. Serve immediately.

FRIED CHEESE GRITS
"Fried" and "Grits" are two words that every true Southern cook uses regularly. Combine them, and you get a Southern version of New England's "Fried Cornmeal Mush" that brunch guests will love. Or, start them in the morning from leftover breakfast grits and serve them for supper. Either way, cooking them in bacon grease is...

Steps:
- 1. If you are starting from scratch, stir uncooked grits slowly into the boiling salted water over medium heat. Simmer grits 4-5 minutes until thickened.
- 2. Stir in the grated cheese until well blended and grits are uniform in color.
- 3. Spoon the grits into a greased square cake pan and smooth the top so it's all even. (If you are using leftover cheese grits, just press them flat into the cake pan.) Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
- 4. When grits are solid and cold, press a paper towel over the top to soak up any condensation. Cut into 9 to 12 squares.
- 5. Fry the squares in two to three batches. Heat about a third of the bacon grease or butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat (cast iron works best). Do not get the pan too hot. Also, use a spatter screen, because bacon grease really pops! Add more bacon grease for each batch.
- 6. Fry the squares of grits for about 5 to 6 minutes per side, until lightly browned. Flip over carefully to fry the other side. Remove to a napkin-lined serving plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- In a saucepot over medium-high heat, add 3 cups water and a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil, and then stir in the grits and milk. Raise the heat to bring to a boil again, and then lower to a simmer and cook for about 4 minutes. When the grits begin to thicken but there is still plenty of moisture left, add the mozzarella and Cheddar along with a few grinds of pepper. Stir to melt the cheese, taste and season with salt, if needed. Serve warm.

Steps:
- Combine 3 1/2 cups water, the milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Slowly add the grits, whisking constantly. Reduce the heat to low; cook, stirring often, until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted; season with salt and pepper. Keep warm over very low heat.
- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots and cook until slightly softened, 2 minutes. Add the sugar snap peas and large scallion pieces; season with salt and toss. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover and simmer until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the mustard. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
- Wipe out the skillet and melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Crack in the eggs; season with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites start setting, about 3 minutes, then cover and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 1 to 2 more minutes. Top each serving of grits with a fried egg, the vegetables, parsley, dill and sliced scallion.

- When cooking grit it's important to remember the ratio you need to remember is 4:1. It's 4 cups of liquid to 1 cup of stone-ground grits.
- In a large heavy saucepan or stock pot bring water, salt, and butter to a boil, then carefully whisk in the grits gradually, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to simmer and cook covered, stirring often, until water is absorbed and grits are thickened, about 30-40 minutes.
- Stir in bacon and cheese, season to taste and pour into a greased 9x9" square pan or a 11x7" rectangle pan. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
- Remove the pan from the from the refrigerator and pat the top of the grits down with a paper towel to get rid of any moisture. Dust the top of the grits with flour. Place parchment paper on top and a baking sheet on top of the parchment paper. Invert the entire thing and remove the original pan. Using a paper towel again dot the top of the grits to get rid of any moisture. Dust the bottom side of the grits, now visible, with flour. Cut into squares or rectangles.
