How can I render the string `{{string}}` within a jsrender template?

Question

Is it possible to render a string wrapped in double curly braces in JSRender?

<div>
   <p>Can I render {{string}} instead of something looking like a {{customtag}}?</p>
   {{if myCustomTag && myTag}}
      (<em>{{:myTag}}</em>)
   {{/if}}
</div>

So far my attempts at http://www.jsviews.com/ have come back void.

You can use HTML character entities - { for { and } for } (or equivalently { and })

So in a template,

... {{string}} ...

will render as

... {{string}} ...

In fact the parser is looking for {{ and {^{ as tag delimiters, so you can get away with using:

... {{string}} ...
