Read MoreCheddar Grits avec Ramps and Bacon
Although I was born in California, I grew up in the south- Georgia and South Carolina to be exact. While I was a kid, grits weren't really a part of our everyday life. My mother's "southern-ness" has evolved with time so when I was young she was still a California girl making Tamale Pie and the like (a suburban girl getting her "mexican" on). Anyway, grits grew on me as an adult. A college student working in a bajillion restaurants, eating her way to a southern background. Every time I'm back in the south I order grits wherever I go because its such a comfort food and nobody does it like the south. These were made with instant grits (yes, lazy lady style) and then we modernized them with eclectic toppers. Don't even try to keep your heart attack in check here, grits need lots of salt or they're disappointing, so sodium intake be damed for a day.

Pickled Ramps.
Deviled Eggs topped with Pickled Ramps.
We cheated and used the left over brine from a favorite jar of dilly beans. Trim, rinse and chop one bunch of ramps. Transfer to a small bowl or jam jar and cover with brine. Let stand refrigerated for at least 8 hours before using- over night is better. Serve with Deviled Eggs- simply made with just mayo, touch of dijon and lots of salt and pepper.
If you don't have pickle juice in your fridge simply make a brine that's 1 part white vinegar (or cider vinegar, whatever you have), 3 parts water. Then throw in salt, sugar, some peppercorns, dill seed or fresh dill if you have on hand and some mustard seeds.
