3 or moreAn experiment to make Southern Cheese Grits raw... I think it would be better with some onion, garlic and cayenne pepper as I love hot and spicy...
Ingredients:
1 Cup fresh corn cut off the cob with the "milk"(corn juice)
3/4 Cup Nutritional Yeast
1/2 teaspoon Himalaya
Salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1 tablespoon Flax Oil
Cream in high speed blender then add
1/4 Cup freshly ground Flax Seed in a coffee grinder and then put into
blender and blend until just combined .
This is thick and creamy with a little "grit", the taste is close but no ringer. However a very pleasant cheezy corn side dish!!! I give it 3 stars...
Since the corn was wet and raw, no
water was needed.

1. I have been thinking about a
I have been thinking about a recipe for polenta. Instead of flax, a person may be able to use white chia seeds.
2. I"m going to have to remember
I"m going to have to remember this for the summer when I get good fresh local corn!
3. I really believe the dried
I really believe the dried corn would work better but I unfortunately went to the freezer and pulled out a bag I froze this summer... Remember when I fell off the porch and killed my ankles??? OMG what a memory!!! Anyway back to your questions...
Emtpdmom~ There won't be any corn juice if you use store bought frozen corn and it wont be raw, but if you have to use the store stuff get the creamy too and combine them after thawing... Again not raw... : (
joannabanana~This was the only batch I made so it took ONE try... : )
Just remember this is only close not an exact rendition, but it does taste great and fills that comfort need.. smile
4. I just knew you could do it.
I just knew you could do it. Would fresh frozen whole kernel corn work as well? Thaw it out first?
5. i can't wait to try my first
i can't wait to try my first batch of grits!!! i have so much nooch in the house and i hardly ever use it. all i need is the corn!
