Its Latin name, dracunculus, means \"little dragon\" and is derived from the medieval belief that the shape of a plant reflected its uses (the Doctrine of Signatures). Because its roots appear serpentine, medieval herbalists regarded tarragon as a treatment for snakebite. Today tarragon is not widely used medicinally, but the fresh leaves and stems are used in cooking, and at least one master chef has declared that scrambled eggs with the right amount of tarragon are a bit of heaven. Tarragon imparts its flavor readily, and is one of the herbs often used in making flavored vinegars and oils. While dried tarragon is sometimes used as a seasoning, the drying loses much of the flavor of the herb. Instead, many herbalists recommend starting a plant from a cutting to keep inside throughout the winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePARTS USED\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeaves and stems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTYPICAL PREPARATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFresh or dried leaves and stems usually included into culinary dishes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSUMMARY\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile there are some ancient traditional medicinal uses for tarragon, its most common use is as a culinary herb. Used fresh, it imparts a spicy, minty licorice flavor to salads and egg dishes, as well as to cooked meats and poultry. It should not be used in soups, as the flavor is too strong. Because many insects dislike the smell and taste of tarragon, it can be useful as a companion plant to keep the garden pest-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"subhead-precautions\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePRECAUTIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecific:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNo known precautions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWe recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"subhead-disclaimer\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor educational purposes only.
