Middlins are the broken pieces of Carolina Gold Rice produced during hulling and polishing — too imperfect for export, which is exactly why they ended up in the best Southern cooking. Creamy like polenta, thicker than porridge, and with the same nutty depth as the whole grain. Chefs rediscovered them years ago. Home cooks are still catching up.
Tidewater Grain Co. grows and mills their Carolina Gold on their family farm in Oriental, North Carolina — the first rice farm in the state in over 120 years. These middlins, also called rice grits, are a byproduct of that milling process and a genuine piece of Southern food history. Cook them slow with butter and cheese, serve under shrimp, or use them anywhere you'd reach for grits or polenta.
