+```go-html-template
+{{ $s := "An *emphasized* word" }}
+{{ $s | .RenderString }} → An <em>emphasized</em> word
+```
+
+This method takes an optional map of options:
+
+display
+: (`string`) Specify either `inline` or `block`. If `inline`, removes surrounding `p` tags from short snippets. Default is `inline`.
+
+markup
+: (`string`) Specify a [markup identifier] for the provided markup. Default is the `markup` front matter value, falling back to the value derived from the page's file extension.
+
+Render with the default markup renderer:
+
+```go-html-template
+{{ $s := "An *emphasized* word" }}
+{{ $s | .RenderString }} → An <em>emphasized</em> word
+
+{{ $opts := dict "display" "block" }}
+{{ $s | .RenderString $opts }} → <p>An <em>emphasized</em> word</p>
+```
+
+Render with [Pandoc]:
+
+```go-html-template
+{{ $s := "H~2~O" }}
+
+{{ $opts := dict "markup" "pandoc" }}
+{{ $s | .RenderString $opts }} → H<sub>2</sub>O
+
+{{ $opts := dict "display" "block" "markup" "pandoc" }}
+{{ .RenderString $opts $s }} → <p>H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
+```
