Years ago I was doing a long distance walk and camped out on New Year's eve. There was a -7 degree frost and so the next night, being fed up of playing hard, I decided to do a guest house. It did evening meal and the wife there cooked steak with tarragon, and I washed it down with a bottle of good red wine.

The tarragon is a sweet woody herb that brings out the flavour of steak in a way that nothing else I have ever come across does. It works on roast beef too. It just makes it taste lush; tarragon and steak are just heavenly twins, meant for each other.

Your OH will love it.

If you are cautious about it, try cooking a steak in the normal way and getting some mustard with tarragon from the supermarket. Not quite as good but it will give the idea.

My Favourite Steak is a RibEye Steak. Tesco have some really Tasty ones and this is in either Thurso or Wick.

I dont have them often as they are so expensive but I am content to have them about once every 3 months or so. Next time I will try with some Tarragon as you suggest John Little as it sounds real good. Yum Yum wish I had one right now. :D

I agree cullpacket - buy local! Heilan' coo is indeed rather fab - have you tried buffalo? Had buffalo sirloin recently and it was marvelous! Must give the tarragon a shot tho - I love a good steak!
