Almost. A frikandel is sort of like a deep fried caseless hot dog.

Ye who haven't had grits/didn't like them:

Get a bag of Bob's Red Mill grits, these are widely available.

Boil with a 4:1 ratio of liquid:grits. Use flavorful liquid. Half chicken stock, half milk works. Salt/pepper it here.

Stir a lot while this is happening. Pro move is to trick a friend into agreeing to stir for you. Cook until it's thick and creamy.

Shred a ton of cheese and add, melt it in. Adjust salt and pepper. Eat.

This will convert you to grits and then you can start playing with different styles.

full offense but why not just make something good like mac and cheese with all the dairy

Just because you lack the taste to appreciate the simple, unadorned flavor doesn't mean others are the same. :colbert:

I see why people like grits but I don't have a strong feeling about them one way or the other.

I think goopy cereals are things you pretty much had to grow up eating.

They're pretty thick when I make them, not goopy at all. After chilling you can slice it and reheat by frying in a little butter for a whole different thing the next day.

I've never had hominy grits and I don't think I can even buy them around here, but I've made porridge out of regular corn meal and it's great. I can conclude that I would probably really like proper grits.

Hmm, try introducing the self-loathing at a lower temperature, that should stop the curdling.

I've eaten a packet of instant mashed potatoes right out of the pan with nothing but salt. It wasn't very good. Same with plain white rice. The best you can say about stuff like that is that it is edible. Don't do it if you like yourself unless you will starve otherwise.

When I was in college one of my go to meals was white rice with worcestershire sauce, so I've got this whole seasoning thing down.

Cream of wheat is pretty tasty when made with milk and a bunch of cinnamon and sugar.Super hard to get it right, and the bowl is covered in a cement like substance unless you wash it immediately.

You do not have to be good. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
I eat a bowl of malt-o-meal most mornings for breakfast. It’s hot, fast, filling, can be shared with my kid, contains iron for my perpetual anemia, and virtually dissolves off the dish even once it dries if I just soak it in hot water for a few minutes. A spoonful of sugar, a lump of butter, and a slosh of milk is all it needs.

It looks like sludge though.

I had some instant mashed potatoes that had dollop of asiago dip added and it was the best loving thing I'd ever eaten.

Granted I had fasted for 24 hours and spent the whole night awake watching stars disappear behind trees then eagerly anticipating when they'd show up again.

If you ever want to make grits taste delicious, just tale a wilderness survival course.
