Cheesy Grits With Scallions Recipes

CHEESY GRITS WITH SCALLIONS AND JAMMY EGGS

Steps:

• Bring milk and 1 cup water to a boil over medium-high heat. Whisking constantly, gradually add grits and cook, turning down heat to maintain a low simmer if needed, until tender, 25-35 minutes. Whisk in cheese and butter to melt; season grits with salt and pepper.
• While grits are going, combine scallions, jalapeño, and oil in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, swirling pan occasionally, until scallions are lightly browned and crisp, 8-10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer scallions and jalapeño to a plate. Strain oil through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl.
• Divide grits among bowls. Top each with an egg and some scallions and jalapeño; drizzle with strained oil.

Steps:

• Bring water and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Whisk in grits, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until thickened, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat.

CREAMY CHEDDAR GRITS

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.

CHEESE GRITS

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.
