Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups whole milk
2 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 cup coarse ground cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded

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.

Microwave <strong>Corn Cheese Grits in a Mug image

This is a deliciously cheesy way to start your morning.

Provided by Alyse Whitney

Categories     Grits

Time 9m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons quick-cooking grits
¾ cup water
½ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
¼ cup corn kernels
2 tablespoons shredded whole-milk mozzarella cheese
½ teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon Japanese mayonnaise (such as Kewpie®)
freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon whole milk, or more as needed
1 scallion (dark part only), thinly sliced

Steps:

  • To a 12-ounce microwave-safe mug (or larger), add the grits, water, and ¼ teaspoon of kosher salt. Stir together with a fork or whisk and place on a microwave-safe plate to catch any overflow. Microwave on high power for 1 ½ minutes, then remove, add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, and stir. Microwave for another 1 ½ to 2 minutes, or until the grits are tender. Add additional seasoning if needed.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the corn, mozzarella cheese, sugar, Kewpie mayonnaise, and remaining ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, and as much freshly cracked black pepper as makes you happy.
  • Remove the grits from the microwave and add 1 tablespoon of whole milk. If it is still too thick for your liking, add more a splash at a time until it reaches your desired consistency. Add the corn cheese mixture on top and microwave on high power-without stirring together!-for 45 seconds, or until the cheese is completely melted.
  • Mix the corn cheese into the grits thoroughly, then top with sliced scallions. Get a good cheese pull for your photo and enjoy!
