Cook the Grits
Bring the 1 cup of water and 1 teaspoon of salt to a rolling boil in a small saucepan. Stir in the 1/4 cup of grits, then immediately reduce the heat to low and cover the pan. Let it simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until the grits are thick and creamy, with no gritty texture remaining. They should be soft and easy to stir. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly before serving.
