Instructions
  1. Using the display panel select the SAUTE function.
  2. Add polenta, warmed water, salt and pepper in the Instant Pot and whisk to combine.
  3. Bring to a simmer, then whisk again.
  4. Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
  5. Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- buttons and program the Instant Pot for 0 minutes.
  6. When the time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
  7. Whisk the polenta until well-combined and creamy.
  8. Add butter and stir to combine. Add pecorino a little at a time, whisking until melted. Adjust seasonings as needed.
  9. Serve--a wide, shallow bowl is traditional--topped with additional pecorino, salt and a generous grind of pepper.
