Grits cremosi al formaggio del Sud

Ingredienti

• 1 cup old-fashioned yellow corn grits (see note*)
• 4 cups water
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
• Freshly cracked black pepper (to taste)

Preparazione

1. 1

   To a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add the water, cream, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Stir the ingredients to combine and bring them to a rolling boil.

2. 2

   Once the liquid comes to a boil, add the grits while stirring constantly so that clumps do not form. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer the grits for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. 3

   Once the grits are thick and creamy, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the parmesan and cheddar cheeses. Stir the grits until the cheese has melted into them. Add the butter and stir until melted.

4. 4

   Transfer the grits to a serving bowl and top with fresh cracked black pepper. Enjoy!
