CURATOR'S NOTE:
Why do we love smoke? Perhaps it's the fact that it’s elemental and universal. Korean-American-Southern chef Edward Lee states: "The appeal spans the continents. Some say umami is the fifth [taste], in addition to salty, sweet, sour & bitter. I say smoke is the sixth.”
Biological anthropologists like Richard Wrangham theorize cooked food helped us evolve because it took less time to digest, leaving more time for us to do other things, like invent the wheel.
The elemental scent of meats being cooked over fire, dating back roughly 1.8 million years, remains part of our culinary DNA. “I don’t know if we come into the world loving these smells or if we come into the world prepared to love it because of evolution,” says Paul Breslin, a professor of nutritional science at Rutgers University. “But the connection is profound.”
Whatever the reason we favor smoked flavors, one thing is for certain: These smoked grits bring out the flavor of all the foods they accompany -- Give it a try!
A few Pro-Tips: For creamier results, use milk instead of water. For thinner grits, use a bit more water. For thicker, creamier grits, cook longer.
