This recipe serves: 8
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients
2 cups water
2 cups milk
1 cup hominy
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon butter
1 tablespoon freshly chopped herbs (chives, parsley, dill or a
combination)

Cooking Instructions
1. Bring the water and milk to a boil in the top of a double boiler,
then stir in the hominy and add a dash of salt. Cook on top of the
double boiler, stirring constantly, until the grits thicken, about 5
minutes. (If not using a double boiler, cook in a saucepan over very
low heat for about the same amount of time.)
2. Cover, and cook until the grits are tender, about 1 hour. (If the
grits get too thick, just add water to thin them.) Stir in the butter
and herbs and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
