Grits being some parts of a chicken I gather that I wouldn't eat? Not that I'm being rude about American cuisine- I live in East London, home of pie n'mash (As long as the liquor is good) and we eat faggots (Before anyone gets any strange ideas (as Adrian A once said "popping out for a fag" might sound strange in some parts of the World) they're a sort of dumpling made from some sort of meat and spices- (best served piping hot on a bed of pease pudding wiht is a nectar of the Gods!)

Golden hominy is a variety of corn they prepare in a certain way. Grits is basically soaked corn kernels in a salt based solution that have been grounded up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grits You are thinking of gizzards( ??) which are great if deep fried Not that I'm being rude about American cuisine- I live in East London, home of pie n'mash (As long as the liquor is good) and we eat faggots I know how overseas way of life is. I introduced some friends to real sweet breads after they devored it and said they loved I told them what it was. You could see them turn green I thought a fag was a cigarette in the UK till someone introduced me to faggots and peas. It was very good but it was a little different from normally it had liver and onions in it. I had in a form of casserole they guys called it ducks I think (Before anyone gets any strange ideas (as Adrian A once said "popping out for a fag" might sound strange in some parts of the World) they're a sort of dumpling made from some sort of meat and spices- (best served piping hot on a bed of pease pudding wiht is a nectar of the Gods!)

A couple of years back my cousin graduated and we had a party and as a special treat for him, someone brought a huge bucket of the things, which took pride of place on the buffet....I should buy some as a diet aid, I could barely bring myself to go within ten feet of the buffet and hardly ate a thing all night Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

Than get the look on their face and ask what is grits. Every one always stress the word so it sounds like gggriiittttssss I still like pozole better specially with Florida rock shrimp |

It is used more in Mexico and Central America than in the United States and is also called pozole. It can be served a a side dish, or used in stews. Once the hulls have been removed, the hominy can then be dried again and ground coarsely to make hominy grits. (Think polenta) Or they can be ground more finely to make mesa flour. That is used to make tamales and corn tortilla's. Since the hulls nave been removed, hominy and hominy grits and mesa flour are more digestible than corn or polenta or corn meal mush. Jo |

Hominy grits is...grits made from hominy, or corn that's been processed the way you described. "Grits" can also be made from unprocessed dried corn, which is different from hominy grits, but still "grits". I've never tasted hominy, except for commercially canned hominy, and never had grits except in restaurants. Matthew needs to teach me how to make it, just so I can say I've done it. I like both, but grits only with sugar as a breakfast thing. The name is just so off-putting. I never would try it as a kid because it sounded, and even looked a little, like the stuff we used to throw on the bottom of the parakeet's cage to aid digestion. Sherry |
