Steps:

  • Combine the water, milk and salt in a sauce pan and heat over med-high heat until boiling.
  • Gradually add the cornmeal while continually whisking, this will limit lumping.
  • Once all the cornmeal is added, cover and turn the heat to low.
  • Cook for 20-25 minutes, whisking mixture every 4-5 minutes to prevent lumping.
  • 5 minutes before the end of cooking add the butter and let melt. When the timer expires, whisk in the butter to combine and taste for salt and pepper preference.
  • Serve hot with topping(s) if desired.
