Shrimp Grits

As the weather turns cooler I begin to look for foods which warm the body.  Aki has converted me to a grits lover and with that in mind I began to look at grits a bit differently.  Today we made shrimp grits.  The shrimp were ground in a meat grinder and then cooked and finely pulverized.  We added the shrimp crumbs to a smooth corn base made with freeze dried corn, milk and cream.  Together the two bases unite in a grit like fashion to form shrimp grits.  We season the grits with a bit of hot sauce and some sliced scallions.
