Tarragon is unique in its own way: it is the only plant of the wormwood species that does not have strong bitterness in taste. The grass has a strong pungent and tart aroma, a refreshing taste, and French chefs took full advantage of these properties, creating many culinary recipes with it. Tarragon, both fresh and dried, is seasoned with a wide variety of dishes: it well complements omelets, many types of sauces.
