    So here I am, up in New England, screaming "MY COUSIN VINNY" at a 3 year old video.
    Now I know the difference between grits and polenta, never heard of anybody ever putting milk in polenta. Garlic, cheese, sausage, ...sure,
    we even use the coarser grind yellow corn.

      Bradley Davis As a Texan..... I say that you can add whatever the hell you want to grits. It's a breakfast/lunch/dinner food. butter and honey/sugar and fruit for a sweet meal, cheese and bacon/other meat for a savory protein rich meal.... grits are more versatile than oats or rice. You can even make fried grits "pancakes". Anyone who limits foods and doesn't explore their full potential is not a true southern cook.

    If your pot of grits doesn’t have a yellow shine around the outside, you haven’t added enough butter.
    Fresh salt right before serving ontop is a must, salt activates our tastebuds 👍

I also love how when the convenience store/gas station owner testifies saying, "NO self respecting Southerner uses instant grits.", the next shot is the jury box and you see the black and white jurists nodding in agreement, so there's no division or race issue on this subject: they're culturally united on this one fact. They're ALL Southerners and they all KNOW this is an absolute fact about grits!

I'm on the prowl for an excellent recipe for Grits and Shrimp that does not use any part of the peeg, the Schwine, the 4-legged garbage disposal (otherwise known as the pig, the hog, the grunt-grunt). I grew up Southern and have made 70 trips around the Sun, but never knew that grits would be more creamy using half milk and half water. All I ever used was water, and my grits turned out...well, not so creamy. So you CAN teach an old dog new tricks. I'll try this recipe tomorrow. Thanks!

    That was a great video. My wife, daughter, son and myself are from New Mexico. We've been living in Middle TN for 20 years. Which seems to be enough time to have surprise baby daughter who is now 11 years old. My wife was sharing an experience about a discussion with co-workers. Somewhere along the line, my wife expressed to them that grits come from corn. They were shocked to hear her say that. In fact, they did not believe her. Her co-workers are from the nearby area or in the south !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They didn't know grits are course ground corn.
    I then proceeded to teach my 11-year old that grits are ground corn. She having been born in Middle TN she better know this. My wife suggested to show our 11-year old the segment of MY COUSIN VINNY. But, before we did that I wanted to show her videos from TH-cam about grits. That's when we came across your video. AND YOU WERE REFERRING TO THE MOVIE ALSO !!!!!!! That part was weird. My wife and I prepared to show the movie segment. Then, saw your video making reference to the movie also.
    Take care. Thanks for the 23 minute grits.

    I buy Old School brand stone ground grits. I cook them for an hour on top of the stove at night then transfer to a crockpot on low all night and the are fantastic the next morning.

    I like my grits gritty. Only 10-15 minutes of cooking and there's a crunch to it. :) ... and I do love "that" movie with Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei. I think Tomei won an Oscar for that movie.

    I don’t put sugar in my grits. Just salt, pepper and butter, sometimes cheese and sour cream. It depends on how savory I want my grits. I put sugar in cream of wheat.

    • @JanCharles
      @JanCharles  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oooo - now I want to try cheese and sour cream! I'm surprised how polarized folks get over what to put on grits! I'm happy to try it all!

    Try draining off the starch first and let your grits soak for 10 minutes and see if you like the difference. Milk is a must, just one half cup and butter a lil salt.

    Polenta and grits are different... Polenta is usually made of yellow corn and a much more coarse grinds and chewier texture, Grits are a less coarse grind and a smoother creamier texture.
