Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat oven to 450 degrees. Butter a 2-quart soufflé dish. Attach a buttered collar of folded wax paper or foil by tying with a string around the dish.
  2. Bring milk, water and salt to a boil in a saucepan. Gradually add grits, stirring constantly. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring, until mixture thickens. Remove from heat. Add 4 tablespoons of the butter, the pepper and slightly beaten egg yolks and stir. Stir in 4 ounce of the cheese. Place remaining tablespoon of butter on the surface; allow the butter to melt and spread over the surface to prevent skin from forming. (Soufflé may be done to this point up to 2 hours ahead.)
  3. Beat egg whites until foamy in a clean, dry bowl. Add cream of tartar and continue beating until stiff. Stir about a quarter of the egg whites into grits mixture to lighten. Carefully fold in the remaining egg whites.
  4. Pour mixture into prepared dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1 ounce cheese. Bake in middle of oven about 35 minutes, until puffed and lightly browned. Serve immediately.
