The fact that so many of yall are putting sugar in grits is giving me anxiety. Like it's day 2 and I can't stop thinking about it 😭😭 Maybe I need more hobbies.

I like adding softened cream cheese to my grits once they begin to thicken. Stir until the cream cheese is completely dissolved and simmer for a few more minutes. The grits are really creamy. This is always fool-proof for me every time!

@AmandaD33 5 жыл бұрын

Thank you! to everybody saying they don't like grits... You must have had that watery plain crunchy bit having clumpy thick Grits lol. My grandma always hooked up my grits with cheese and butter, and sometimes if we're doing fish and grits or with shrimp, different spices will be in there great with sausage too you can mix it right in! Who needs bread all the time. Grits is a great way to make breakfast more filling for larger families especially. it's amazingly versatile cheap, and youll stay full. And when cooked right they are filled with flavor

Your’s is THE FIRST video I’ve seen where the grits were “rinsed/soaked” before cooking. I was starting to think something was wrong with me, LOL! I’ve always been taught to rinse grains before cooking because of dirt, dust and possibly rocks! Thank you and STAY blessed 🤗🙏🏽😘

@AmandaD33 5 жыл бұрын

I say tread carefully. A lot of people ruin their first impression by having the watery, clumpy, zero flavored grits. They don't have a taste so you really have to add your own if you're making it yourself. And if someone else made it for you, I say add some cheese and butter as well as salt and pepper. Imagine if someone boiled some oats in some water and then served it to you plain. You just got to hook it up and it's a really cheap way to make breakfast more filling especially for large families

Thanks for making this video. I am challenged when it comes to making grits. I'm going to give it another try. Is there a certain measurement you use?

@AmandaD33 5 жыл бұрын

You can follow the instructions on the package at first. What I usually do is I add less than what I think at first, then when you taste you can tell they're crunchy and not done, that's when you add a little bit more water, Stir It and give it time to absorb. And then just repeat the process until the texture is right and it's fully cooked. It's always tricky at first but once you get the hang of it it's awesome. I say for beginner start off with instant grits. And of course season to taste whether sweet or savory. I prefer cheese and butter it goes well with the eggs and bacon
