Explore the enchanting world of Artemisia dracunculus, popularly known as Tarragon or Dragon Herb. A member of the Asteraceae family, this perennial herb shares its lineage with wormwood. Often referred to as "dragon herb," Tarragon boasts a rich historical and botanical tapestry. Native to the vast expanses of the Northern Hemisphere, stretching from Eastern Europe through Asia to parts of North America, its presence in North America may be attributed to early human introduction. Touting glossy green leaves and a distinctive liquorice-like aroma, Tarragon is a staple in global culinary traditions. Its young shoots serve as flavorful additions when cooked or added to salads, while its vibrant leaves enhance soups and vinegars alike. Essential oils derived from these leaves further magnify its culinary versatility. Although less fragrant, Russian Tarragon is cherished among gardeners for its adaptability to cooler climates. Whether fresh or dried, its captivating flavor continues to inspire chefs and home cooks worldwide, infusing dishes with a touch of savory elegance.
