About grits

Grits is a type of porridge made from coarsely ground dried corn (maize) or hominy, the latter being maize that has been treated with an alkali in a process called nixtamalization, with the pericarp removed. It is eaten primarily in the United States. Grits are cooked in warm salted water or milk. They are often served with flavorings as a breakfast dish, though it is also served as a lunch or supper dish, particularly with meat. Grits can be savory or sweet, with savory seasonings being more common. Grits are similar to other thick maize-based porridges from around the world, such as polenta, mieliepap, and mămăligă. Italian-Americans living in the delta of Arkansas and Mississippi recognized this and have substituted grits for traditional polenta dishes. The dish originated in the Southern United States but is now available nationwide. Grits are part of the dinner main dish shrimp and grits, served primarily in the Southern United States.
