Description
Tarragon is a popular green leafy herb that dominates French cuisine. Its exclusive yet gentle taste works exceptionally well with chicken, fish, and various sauces. This herb is famous for its bittersweet flavor and notes resembling the spice anise. Even a small amount of it adds the perfect taste and scent while elevating the meal's flavor. Tarragon is an essential ingredient in the Bernaise sauce and is a sought after herb for flavoring vinegar.
How To Select Tarragon?
Tarragon leaves are slender and have pointed tips. When choosing tarragon, make sure the stems have bright green leaves. We suggest you run away from leaves that are black, yellow, or wilting.
If you are looking for French tarragon, crush one of its leaves in your fingers. If it smells similar to anise, it is French tarragon.
How To Properly Store Tarragon?
So how do you properly store tarragon while maintaining its freshness? You can place the stems in a vase or jug of water on your kitchen counter. This will ensure they last a week or maybe even longer.
Another way is to roll the fresh tarragon stems in a damp paper towel and pack it in a plastic bag and refrigerate it. By following this method, they will stay fresh for about four days.
