Tarragon is one of those tender herbs that somehow manages to lift the dishes it is used in above where they might otherwise be. One dish I love to use it in is chicken salad. Add red grapes, toasted almonds and fresh tarragon and suddenly the lowly chicken salad is fit for a king. We hope you find other good uses for your tarragon. It does well in vinegar so that is always a viable option.
