Grits

Recipe By : Sylvia Woods
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:30
Categories : Breakfast Soul Food

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 cups water
1 1/2 cups grits -- white (not instant)
1 tablespoon salt

Heat the water to boiling in a large saucepan over medium heat. Pour in the
grits very gradually, stirring the whole time to prevent lumps. Add the
salt, reduce the heat to low (one or two bubbles should rise to the top at a
time), and cook, stirring constantly, until tender, about 10 minutes. Grits
should be as thick as oatmeal, not runny or stiff. If the grits get too
thick toward the end of the cooking time, stir in a little hot water. Serve
hot.
