Ordering Information

Tarragon
Tarragon is an herb cultivated in two species: Russian and French. The leaves of the French are most commonly used in commercial Tarragon. Tarragon is native to southern Russia and western Asia, but is primary produced in France today. Tarragon, unlike many other herbs, was not used in ancient times. It first made its appearance in the United States in the early 1800s. Tarragon has a slightly bittersweet flavor and an aroma similar to anise. It is commonly known as a flavoring for vinegar and is used in pickles, relishes, prepared mustards and sauces. Tarragon also goes well with fish, meat, soups and stews, and is often used in tomato and egg dishes. Tarragon adds distinctive flavor to sauces.
