Mexican Tarragon

Mexican tarragon, or Tarragon Four season, is a herb native to Mexico and Guatemala and has been recognised for its great culinary use since the Aztec times. It has a delicious anise flavour that resembles French tarragon, and so can be used in exactly the same way. The main advantage is that it grows very easily, is drought tollerant and if kept protected from frost in winter, can be harvested all year.
Great used with chicken, mushroom, cream sauces, eggs and anywhere you would use French tarragon.
