What is Gritz?!
Answers: I think it's some form of American food. Am i right? What the hell is it??
I assume you mean "grits." Grits is a southern US substitute for cream of wheat, but made from corn.
To make grits, one starts with corn. When the corn kernels are soaked in lye, they swell and become white in color. These treated kernels are then neutralized. At this point, they are called hominy. Hominy can be cooked and eaten as is, or dried and ground up into a powder with particles comparable in size to those of cream wheat. When these particles are mixed with water and cooked, they turn into a mix that looks very much like cream wheat. This mix is hominy grits, or grits.
Grits can be eaten in many ways: as is, with milk and sugar, mixed with bacon and eggs, or fried into patties. If you've never tried hominy grits, I hope you will. When you do, and your friends ask you what you are eating, you can reply, "Them's grits!"
gritz is like mush..
2 cups water
1 1/4 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick cooking grits (not instant)
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
In a small pot, bring the water, milk, and salt to a boil. Slowly stir the grits into the boiling mixture. Stir continuously and thoroughly until grits are well mixed. Let the pot return to a boil, cover with a lid, lower the temperature, and cook for approximately 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more water if necessary. Grits are done when they have the consistency of smooth cream of wheat. Stir in the butter and serve.
its made from corn, im not sure of the exact process, but i believe it is dried then crushed...
The stuff from sandpaper! Well thats about the same consistency
Grits is a type of corn porridge, which is common in the Southern United States consisting of coarsely ground corn. This is similar to many other thick maize-based porridges from around the world such as polenta. It also has a lesser resemblance to farina, a thinner porridge.
its a southern food...its sort of like...cornbread but its a pudding like dish. watery cornbread? i dont like it, i know people who love the stuff

Hominy grits is another term for grits, but explicitly refers to grits made from nixtamalized corn, or hominy.
Yellow speckled grits is also very popular[citation needed] in the southern states, named for its the black specks in its yellow body.
grits are ground up hominy... hominy grits... they are little particles of the hominy, and when you boil them up with water or milk, it makes a hot cereal, that is like a hot corn meal cereal... it is traditionally eaten with butter and maple syrup, or you can put ham and cheese in it instead... you are making me hungry...
I'm not sure what it is, but...I can tell you this; I dont like it.
It's too dang plain for me.
OK, unlike the popular American doll, Bratz-Grits is not spelled with a "z" at the end. And it's usually a breakfast food although some people prefer it for lunch or brunch with steak. It's made from hominy, a kind of corn. It can be prepared with cheese, seasoned with salt and pepper, sugar and butter, or served plain. It's actually quite tasty when coupled with the right foods. I prefer mine for breakfast with eggs and sausage...any other questions?
It is american, from the south. It's called grits. As with everything else in life, you like it, or you don't. For those of us that do, we all like it a different way. It is made from corn, ground into a 'gritty' form. I like mine with lots of butter, cheese, bacon, and boiled eggs. Some folks add sugar, some just butter. It is very plain by itself, but a southerner knows better than to eat it alone. Would you eat spaghetti with no sauce, or cheese?
Its nots spelled with a "z". But its ground corn hominy....i think....yeah ... and its a popular food in the south. Yes- america. Quaker makes a good selection of gritS. And the description by RKeech is great! I didnt feel like explaining all that stuff.Grits are very good for you. Good source of iron. I prefer mine with butter or margerine and a little sugar. But there a re different flavor varieties available. This makes me want some grits right now! Too bad Im stuck with instant noodles.
basically it's cooked corn meal. also known as polenta.
like cornmeal porrige
