Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a saucepan, combine water, half-and-half, salt, and white pepper and bring to a boil. Slowly pour grits into boiling water while whisking continuously to avoid splattering.
  2. Reduce heat to low and continue to whisk often, until the mixture is thick, completely smooth, and free of lumps, about 10 minutes.
  3. Add cheese, stirring gently until melted. Whisk again to combine. Turn off the heat and let the grits rest for 5 minutes. Add cubed butter and stir until the mixture is completely smooth, silky, and shiny.
