Continue to whisk until the mixture starts to tighten up, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the fresh chopped herbs, 2 tablespoons of the butter and the Parmesan. Continue to stir until well combined and very thick, taste for seasoning adjustment.
• Liberally butter a 10-inch springform pan on the bottom and about 2-inches up the side. Pour in the hot polenta and with a rubber spatula, rubbed with butter, smooth out the top. Set aside to cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours to set. (This can also be done up to 1 day ahead.)
• Preheat a grill to medium.
• When ready to grill, or pan fry, remove the polenta from the pan and cut it into equal pie shapes or cut circles with a biscuit cutter. Lightly oil a grill, brush each side of the polenta with olive oil and grill or pan sear until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Arrange the polenta on a serving platter and serve hot.

HADDOCK ON POLENTA WITH TARRAGON SAUCE

Steps:

• Rub the bottom of a large saucepan with the butter. Add the scallions and the fish (folding the fillets in half if they are thin and long to approximate the thickness indicated here so they will cook in about the same length of time). Add 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper and wine. Bring to a boil over high heat, cover, reduce the heat to low, and boil gently for 3 minutes.
• With the lid held slightly ajar on the pan so the fish don't fall out, pour the cooking juices into another saucepan. Add the cream to the juices, stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and bring the mixture to a boil. Boil 1 minute, add the dissolved potato starch and return to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the tarragon and chives.
• To serve, spoon polenta (see recipe) onto six individual plates. Arrange fish fillets on top of polenta and spoon some tarragon sauce on top.
