Answer 4

Grits can be a little tricky. If you're looking for smooth, add a little more liquid while you're cooking them and keep the flame low. For creamier grits, you might want to mix milk with the water. I do this and I usually have pretty good results.

Answer 6

Cook the grits in milk instead of water. Or you can use half milk-half buttermilk. And stir, stir, stir! Bring milk to boil then slowly add grits!

Answer 7

After boiling the water and salt. Turn down the heat to low and stir in grits. Then stir in buttermilk and continue to stir slowly (periodically) until done . Stirring keeps the lumps from forming and buttermilk makes everything creamier. Goodluck .

Answer 8

I add the boiling water really slowly to the grits, whisking contstantly. Whisk whisk whisk. It's like making gravy, don't believe any recipe that says "Add the liquid all at once." No no no, that's where lumps come from.

Answer 9

As you add water, constantly stir - a whisk is helpful as well. Add your butter or cheese or whatever at the end of cooking and whisk in.
