Hominy Grits |
During and after the Civil
War, hominy grits were eaten by the poor, just to stay alive. Hominy
grits have become a breakfast dish of the South and Midwest. Grits
can be found on the breakfast menus of the best restaurants. Hominy,
is dried corn kernel, usually white or yellow corn; which has been
soaked in lime, to remove the outer hull or skin. Hominy grits are
made from dried white hominy that has been coarse ground. It is
cooked in the made the same manner as polenta. In our south and
Midwest grits are commonly served for breakfast much the same way
oatmeal or cream of wheat is served. However they can also be served
the same as polenta. |
