White grits are a type of ground corn product made from white corn. They are a staple in Southern cuisine and are often served as a side dish or breakfast item. The corn is processed to remove the hull and germ, resulting in a fine or coarse texture, depending on the grind. To prepare white grits, they are typically boiled in water or milk until they reach a creamy consistency. They can be enjoyed plain or enhanced with butter, cheese, or seasonings. White grits are versatile and can also be used in recipes like shrimp and grits or baked dishes.
