You can also add herbs, spices, or vegetables to the cooking liquid for extra flavor. - Stir the grits frequently while they are cooking. This will help prevent them from sticking to the pot and ensure that they cook evenly. - Once the grits are cooked, remove them from the heat and let them stand for a few minutes before serving. This will allow them to thicken and develop their full flavor. - Serve the grits hot with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include butter, salt, pepper, cheese, bacon, and eggs.
