I made the polenta in the P-in-P method last night for dinner. OMGosh–was it delicious and so stupid easy. I used mushroom broth so no salt needed and then cooked up a mushroom ragu to put over top. It was amazing–will be making polenta this way from now on.

I can’t believe how easy and foolproof this recipe is. I do the pot-in-pot method in my Instant Pot 6 quart model, using a stainless steel bowl, so even cleanup is simple.

I typically make my polenta in the oven. No stir, delicious. Basically same recipe as yours. Decided to try yours out of convenience (and because ALL of your recipes are amazing!). This did not disappoint, in fact it is easier and even better than my oven baked recipe! It’ll be IP polenta in this house from now on! Thank you, as always!

In reply to Barbara. I’ve used to Corningware, oven, proof casserole dish and it worked perfectly.

My first time making polenta and it was excellent. I used the pot in pot method after first making A & J’s oxtail stew. I didn’t have low- or no- salt broth so instead used Better Than Bouillon Garlic + water and omitted the salt. I placed the pot right on top of raw carrots so no rack was needed. It turned out beautifully smooth and creamy. I should mention I only made half the amount. Next time I’ll make the full recipe!

I tried this without paying attention to all the instructions, mainly the bold and underlined disclaimer – my fault. But figured it will give me an excuse to make it again. Love how easy this was, I did the pot in pot and I’ll never risk popping polenta scalding my hand again. Thank you!

Excellent recipe! I used the first method with 4.5 cups of chicken broth and had no burn issues. The taste and texture was just what I would expect from a restaurant. Bonus: This is the first time I’ve ever cooked polenta and not ended up with a single burn from bubbly grits landing on my hand while stirring! Well done!
