About Tarragon

Tarragon, a fragrant herb native to Eurasia, is a staple in French cuisine and widely used in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes. Known for its slightly sweet, licorice-like flavor, tarragon adds depth to sauces, dressings, and marinades. Rich in vitamins A and C, as well as essential minerals like magnesium and iron, tarragon is packed with health benefits. It contains antioxidants that may help reduce inflammation and support overall wellness. Tarragon also has digestive properties, traditionally used to stimulate appetite and alleviate indigestion. However, it’s best consumed in moderation, as excessive intake may overshadow its benefits. Available fresh or dried, this versatile herb elevates culinary experiences while contributing to a well-rounded diet.
