Herb Tarragon
Tarragon has thin, blade-like, highly aromatic leaves. Tarragon leaves are spicy sweet and used in cold meat sauces or with eggs, cheese, and fish.
These seeds should take 10 to 14 days to germinate and only a few more
days to show their first leaves! Tarragon makes good flavoring for
vinegar when leaves are steeped for 2 weeks, then strained.
Q: What's the difference between Russian and French Tarragon? A: French Tarragon comes from the herbs cuttings while Russian Tarragon is taken from seed.
Preparation Ideas: Use for cold meat sauces, eggs, and fish dishes!
