- In Round Steamer, combine mix, water, and 1 cup milk. Cover and microwave on high 5 min.
- Remove from microwave (use caution when handling steamer—it will be hot!) and whisk well to break up lumps. Whisk in remaining 1 cup milk and butter.
- Microwave, uncovered, on high 10 min, whisking halfway through. Let stand in microwave 5 min. Whisk before serving.
No Steamer? Make polenta on the stovetop! In a large pot over medium heat, combine mix, 2 cups each water and milk, and 1 tbsp butter. Stir constantly until thickened, about 35–40 min. Whisk before serving.
Have some fun with stir-ins! Try shaved Parmesan cheese, cracked black pepper, herbs like parsley and thyme, sundried tomatoes, black olives, or pesto sauce.
