It has aromatic properties such as to improve and revive the flavor and aroma of other herbs and spices and even of the food with which it is combined. Perfect when used with meat and fish in almost all preparations, the important thing is to insert it at the end of cooking so as to maintain the aroma unchanged.
Its strongly odorous leaves contain essential oils that have antibacterial, digestive, diuretic, balsamic and carminative properties.

In the kitchen it is perfect for delicious first courses or second courses of fish or pork.
Because of its remarkable taste, tarragon is an excellent substitute for salt and spicy spices.
