VisioBrand - Official Site - Grits

1) What are grits?
Grits are made from the milling of corn kernels. The first step in the process is to clean the kernels; then, the grains are steamed for a short time to loosen the tough outer hull. The grain kernel is split, which removes the hull and germ, leaving the broken endosperm. Heavy steel rollers break up the endosperm into granules, which are separated by a screening process. The large-size granules are the grits; the smaller ones become cornmeal and corn flour.

2) What kind of grits does Quaker make?
Quaker makes 3 types of grits. Regular grits leave the large granules intact. Quick grits are passed over smooth rollers, which fracture the large granules into smaller ones. This allows quick grits to cook faster. Instant grits are precooked, and then dried again for packaging. You "re-cook" them by adding boiling water.

3) Are grits only a breakfast food?
Not at all! People eat grits at all times of the day, as an appetizer, as a side dish, or as a main meal. Check out our Delicious Recipes and see how you'd like to eat your grits!
