Guest guest Posted September 30, 2000 Report Share Posted September 30, 2000 This message has reached me. I guess I dont know how this works. Does everyone on the list get all messages? S GRITS My lord! We all love grits, don't we! I never suspected that even all you yankee ladies would love them too. When I was growing up, grits were the special treat we had every Sunday morning. They are the ultimate in comfort food, aren't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2000 Report Share Posted September 30, 2000 > > OK, how many of us ate grits yesterday or this morning because of this thread!? :-) O.K. Now I have only had grits once or twice in my travels down South, but you ladies have given me a hankerin' for them. The only problem is, I have no idea how to make them or even where to buy them! I remember from " My Cousin Vinny " (one of my favorite movies of all time) that there is such a thing as instant grits, but I don't think I have ever see them in the supermarket. Are they near the cereals or near the rice and pasta? Are the instant O.K. or do I need to go through a whol production to make real grits??? I MUST HAVE THEM TOMORROW!!!!

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2000 Report Share Posted September 30, 2000 Suzanne, If you reply directly to the message, it goes to the whole list. You have to use someone's specific email addy to have it go only to them. You will get all the public notices and the emails that are mailed to the general group. I hope this helps! ~hugs~Rabecca Self-Pay DS Pre-op / Dr Baltasar, Spain- 6/2001BMI 38 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2000 Report Share Posted September 30, 2000 Lori, here in South Carolina,the grits are found at one end of the cereal isle. Don't bother with the instant grits, they are yucky. The regular grits are so quick to cook anyway, just buy the real kind. The package will tell you how much water/salt to boil, then put the grits in, stir while they thicken, only about 5-10 minutes depending on how much you make, slather with butter, enjoy! I like to sometimes cut up some cheese into little chunks and drop it in to melt into the grits...yum! Good luck! Brown, SC > > O.K.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2000 Report Share Posted October 1, 2000 Polenta is cornmeal, right? Grits are hominy, a type of white corn (I think). All I know is they are good, good, good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 1, 2000 Report Share Posted October 1, 2000 Dear Sandy: There are two foods I really care for one is Italian and the other is Jewish and as in anything I don't care for everything in either. Yes, you will be able to eat calamari!! Posto's serves it's polenta sliced into triangle wedges and sautéed a golden brown in olive oil with fresh parmagane (sp?) sprinkled over the top and me being me I always add some of the butter that comes with the bread just to make it even yummier!! My other favorite Italian food is veal chops stuffed with porchinni mushrooms and cheese, (not exactly sure which cheese but it is really creamy and not to salty) and has a rich veal gravy. In Jewish food I lean toward sweet and sour cabbage and beef soup, white fish on bagels with cream cheese and raw onion, pastrami (on the fatty side) on a Kaiser roll with a wee bit of mustard, (it is the only thing I eat mustard on at all). I love corned beef and cabbage with potatoes, whoops that's more Irish I guess and I make my own NY cheesecake as I make the real stuff, one cake 40oz of cream cheese. Had a guy tell me it was better than anything he had eaten in NY. But it is Wolfie's recipe! Okay now I am hungry!!!!!!!LOL Huggles Tiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
