We bought some for a salad…
It’s not a “usual” in my herb usage, so I’m curious what your favorite applications of tarragon are.
Thanks!

For me, it’s a herb for chicken.
It goes, chopped, along with other soft herbs under the skin of a whole chicken for roasting. Or, as a flavouring in a wine & cream sauce - also for chicken.
Although I’ve never made it, I will almost always have a bearnaise sauce on the rare occasions when I order a steak in a restaurant.

My favourite local bistro currently has it on their autumn menu as a mushroom & tarragon sauce. Hake is the main event, along with a potato rosti & spinach. I’ve not eaten it but have never had a bad dish there so presume it will work.

That whole dish sounds so delicious
Do you infuse your own oil? I also saw something about tarragon vinegar.

Yes, I warm grape seed oil, add the tarragon, turn off heat, steep 20 mins, strain and bottle.

Do you use a recipe? I’ve never added tarragon in any of my salsas and sauces.
I’m willing to try 
Interesting.

Chicken also. I don’t use it much, but it’s pretty common in a cold chicken salad.

I grow it so I can have it on corn on the cob. So good.

Thanks - how long can it stay out? Or is it that one uses it up faster than the question becomes relevant?
Oh how interesting - so it’s good with corn… that’s good to know, I love corn in all it’s forms!
Always meant to try green goddess but never have - thanks!
