White Grits And Cheddar Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sausage and cook for 5 minutes. Add the water, cream, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil. Gradually stir in the grits. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the grits are tender, smooth, and creamy, about 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in the chives and cheese and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In 3 quart saucepan, combine butter, salt, 1 1/2 cups milk and water and heat to boiling over a medium high heat. Gradually stir in grits, beating constantly with wire whisk to prevent lumps. Reduce heat; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes (grits will be very stiff). Remove saucepan from heat and blend in cheese.
• In a large bowl, mix hot pepper sauce, pepper eggs, and remaining 2 cups milk until blended. Gradually stir grits mixture into the egg mixture.
• Grease shallow 2 1/2 quart casserole. Pour grits mixture into casserole. Bake, uncovered, 45 minutes, or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean

Steps:

• Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a heavy 4-quart saucepan. Add the salt, then slowly add the grits in a thin, steady stream, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the grits thicken, about 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the half-and-half and butter to the grits and stir. The mixture will seem thin but it will thicken as it cooks. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally for 45 minutes, until very smooth and creamy. Off the heat, stir in the Cheddar, scallions, and pepper. Season to taste and serve hot with a sprinkle of grated cheese and scallions.

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.

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a medium pot. Whisking constantly, slowly add grits to water and cook until mixture starts to thicken, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until grits are smooth, thick, and fall easily from the spoon, about 25 minutes.
• Add cheese, salt, and cayenne, and stir just until cheese melts. Serve immediately, or cover and keep grits warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, for up to 1 hour (you may need to adjust the consistency with additional water just before serving).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large, heavy-duty, oven-proof pot or Dutch oven, scald the milk over high heat.Slowly sprinkle the grits into the simmering milk, stirring constantly so they don't clump. Season with salt. Cover the pot and place in the oven for 40 minutes, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pot every 10 minutes.
• In a small saute pan set over medium heat, cook the bacon until brown and crispy. Drizzle in the olive oil, if necessary. Remove the bacon to a plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
• Place the chunks of day-old bread in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until coarse crumbs are formed. Add the bread crumbs to the saute pan with the bacon fat, and toast over medium high heat, until light brown and toasty. Add the bacon to the bread crumbs and stir to combine. Remove from the heat, set aside.
• Continue to check and stir the grits every 10 minutes.
• After 40 minutes, remove the grits from the oven and check the doneness. Turn the oven to broil. Fold the butter into the grits. Add the cheese and stir to melt. Pour the grits into a wide, shallow, ovenproof dish and scatter the bread crumbs across the top. Run the grits under the broiler until bubbly and lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
• Remove the grits from the oven and serve immediately.
