You're apparently one of the special ones. And I appreciate a variety of grains. Rice (different kinds), quinoa, couscous, sorghum, barley...etc.
One of my grandmothers made a ham soup loaded with barley. I was never able to replicate it but that's okay as the rest of my family wouldn't eat it anyway. <sigh>
Learning to like grits was a struggle for me. So was making them. Southern husband could eyeball the right amounts of water and grits but it took me a while to learn to make something similar. Funny thing is that I thought he liked his better than mine till just a few months ago when he said mine were better...'course that could be his way out of ever making grits again...he's sneaky like that.
