I inherited some Russian tarragon at my new house - and it does grow like gangbusters. But I just don't like it as well as the French tarragon in my little pot...<br /><br />And Gary, thanks for the science behind why dried tarragon is no bueno - you're like Alton Brown! <br /><br />Let me know how your tarragon dishes turn out! I like that everyone is excited to try some tarragon in their desserts - next time I'm thinking tarragon, sweet cherries, and really dark chocolate...Anna@Tallgrass Kitchenhttp://www.tallgrasskitchen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436582727672829057.post-16967255891863908672010-08-02T15:29:27.680-05:002010-08-02T15:29:27.680-05:00I don't know if I've ever had tarragon.I don't know if I've ever had tarragon.The Blonde Duckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00085499120024055465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436582727672829057.post-50539672712300231112010-08-02T14:02:21.469-05:002010-08-02T14:02:21.469-05:00Both of these recipes look fantastic!Both of these recipes look fantastic!Thistlemoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17898600488153652504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436582727672829057.post-77656407246168999542010-08-02T10:47:21.944-05:002010-08-02T10:47:21.944-05:00I just recently learned to love tarragon - probabl...I just recently learned to love tarragon - probably in the past two or three years.

...The tarragon-blueberry combination is brilliant!<br /><br />BTW, when tarragon dries, the flavor changes completely for two reasons: <br /><br />Some of the flavor components (especially the ones that provides the licorice note) evaporate away, so dried tarragon doesn't have THAT flavor.<br /><br />As the leaves dry, fermentation develops coumarin, which has a fresh hay scent that is barely noticable in the fresh herbGary Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06790001865894489599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436582727672829057.post-43548281200271004902010-07-31T22:16:04.332-05:002010-07-31T22:16:04.332-05:00So THAT's why my tarragon is growing like gang...So THAT's why my tarragon is growing like gangbusters since the first hint of spring sun. I had planted the Russian variety last year (in a pot) for the first time and left it in the garage over winter. I transplanted some to the herb garden in early summer, and it is growing all over the place... but doesn't seem to go to seed. It is a bit on the bitter side, but it's fun to experiment with. Totally trying out the tarragon sugar trick tomorrow... that is just too easy and intriguing to let wait!rcakewalkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13646758033700076277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436582727672829057.post-69557509996363831952010-07-30T12:53:27.681-05:002010-07-30T12:53:27.681-05:00I don't think I've ever knowingly had tarr...I don't think I've ever knowingly had tarragon - crazy!

It's one of the first to come back each year, and my well-established plant has turned into a bonafide bush -- the flavor is so almost-licorice like. I say almost because somehow it doesn't seem to offend folks who claim to hate anise flavor. I can't tell you how utterly excited I am by the idea of those popsicles -- that's just genius.

Besides chives, it is the first herb up in a garden each year and it grows into a HUGE bush. Impossible to use it all. When I do my chef demos at the farmer's market, I bring lots along to give it away and no one takes it.
