Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water and boil. Add salt, baking soda, and potatoes, and stir.

ROASTED GARLIC POLENTA

Steps:

• In a heavy bottom pot, bring 5 cups of water and sea salt to a boil. Mix together the remaining 3 1/2 cups of water and corn grits in a bowl. When the pot of water comes to a boil, add the cornmeal mixture and stir quickly and continuously until the entire mixture is well blended. Add the roasted garlic paste. Reduce the heat so that the polenta is at a low simmer, stirring frequently. Continue to do so until the polenta pulls away from the pot (about 35 minutes). Pour the polenta into a baking sheet to cool. Cut into desired shape (squares for the Napoleon) and pan fry in olive oil until golden in color.
• To build the Polenta Napoleon:
• Place a bed of smoky greens on the plate and top with a polenta square. Top the square with a ladle of rosemary-scented white beans. Top the beans with another polenta square. Decorate the plate with roasted carrot sauce.

Meanwhile, scrub potatoes clean, leave skin on and cut, lengthwise into quarters so you have long potato wedges. Remove bird from oven again (making sure to close oven door) and scatter however many potatoes will fit on bottom of pan; set those which don't fit in an iron skillet with 1/8th inch of water on the bottom of skillet.
• Return bird and potatoes to oven and roast for an hour more. Remove bird from oven and transfer to carving board; let rest for 20 minutes. Strain out juices and discard fat. Return juices to roasting pan. Scoop herbs and garlic out of bird cavity and add to roasting pan. Reduce juices by half. Season with salt and pepper. With slotted spoon, remove herbs and garlic. Right before serving whisk in butter and parsley.
