INSTRUCTIONS
Pack the cooked grits in a shallow baking dish to a thickness of about
1/2 inch. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator,
preferably overnight. When the grits are firm, cut into squares. Beat
the eggs well. Heat the bacon drippings in a large, heavy skillet.
Sprinkle the grits with salt and pepper and dip into the eggs. Fry in
the bacon drippings over medium-high heat until golden brown, turning
once. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately. The grits can also
be shaped into small balls before being dipped into the eggs. Typed
by Carolyn Cloe NOTES : Bea says that cooking grits slowly in a double
boiler greatly improves the flavor and texture. Leftover grits are
delicious when dipped into egg and fried. Recipe by: Beatrice Mize
