Serve up a traditional favorite with Bob's Red Mill corn grits /
polenta! Made from the highest quality yellow corn that's ground using
traditional methods, these grits give you a natural, delicious, and easy
way to cook up a hearty porridge that's perfect for any meal of the
day. First eaten by Native Americans, grits became a popular food for
early American settlers, particularly in the South, who ate this simple
yet nourishing dish to cope with the difficulty of their first years in
the American colonies. Grits eventually became a Southern staple, where
they are often eaten for breakfast or prepared as part of a traditional
meal of shrimp and grits. If your establishment serves traditional
Southern fare, these grits are a great choice! Their high-quality
preparation gives them the nostalgic flavor that you love.
In Italy, grits are known as polenta and play a major role in
traditional cuisine. Polenta was originally eaten as a staple food by
subsistence farmers, but eventually evolved into a flavorful dish
prepared with aromatics that is arguably as quintessentially Italian as
pasta! Try preparing polenta and serving it with marinara sauce and
grated Parmesan cheese for a simple, flavorful, and satisfying meal.
Prepare it with beans for a hearty dish of polenta con fagioli, or toss
it with sauteed mushrooms to create an indulgent polenta con funghi!
Whether you're cooking traditional Southern fare, an Italian staple, or
preparing a simple breakfast, Bob's Red Mill corn grits / polenta is a
delicious product that's easy to prepare. To make it, bring 3 cups of
water and 1/4 teaspoon of water to a boil, then add 1 cup of Bob's Red
Mill grits and reduce the heat. Cook it slowly for 5 minutes, stirring
occasionally, then cover, remove from heat, and let stand for a few
minutes before serving! This easy-to-prepare product is sure to become a
favorite in your restaurant, diner, or cafe.
