Makes 6 servings
- Combine the broth, water, milk, and wine or vermouth in a medium saucepan and bring it to a simmer over medium-high heat.
- Slowly whisk in the grits, reduce the heat to very low, cover, and cook at the lowest simmer until thickened, until most of the liquid has been absorbed, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat; stir in the cheese just until it melts. Stir in the nutmeg, cover, and set aside for 5 minutes before serving.
- Note: To make the cheese easier to cut, place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
