I served this sauce over cold shrimp and it was really very delicious. I plan to use the leftover as a dressing for pasta salad. Dried tarragon worked fine in place of fresh! A great simple recipe.

This is a great cold sauce, but I wonder how it would work on toast or poached eggs?

Refreshing. Easy. Wondering about the tomatoes?? But can see how it would be good on a number of things. A Green Goddess type dressing. The tarragon is important. We had it on salmon.
