It may be of the Russian varietyMar 29, 2012
By M. McFall
"Yay interwebs"
Aside from saffron, tarragon is one of the more prohibitively expensive spices one can deploy in cooking, but is an essential if you plan on doing any French cuisine. I enjoy using this to infuse with bechamel sauces, and am particularly fond of making tarragon mustards, which can turn boring boneless skinless chicken breasts into something fancy, or when used as marinade on skinned chicken that is seared+baked, into something people will talk about.
The Frontier brand tarragon is of good quality, but the flavors aren't as pronounced as I would have liked. Fresh tarragon is the best, but it is way too expensive to be used on a regular basis at home. Because of the lower price and somewhat more mild flavor, I suspect this might be of the Russian variety.
If ordering this, be prepared for the storage requirements, as storage requires a lot of volume. I was able to store the contents of this in two 0.5gal Ball canning jars, vacuum sealed. If you do not store this spice in an airtight container, it will go stale long before you use all of it. Proper long term storage of bulk spices requires little to no light, low to no oxygen, airtight, and away from moisture and heat to maintain flavor.
Out of all of the Frontier brand spices that I've ordered, this is the only one that hasn't totally blown me away. It is as good, if not slightly better, than the dried tarragon you can at a grocery store, but at a significantly reduced cost.
