Mexican Marigold/Mexican Tarragon - (Tagetes lucida) |
|
|
Sweet, licorice-flavored leaves and flowers are a gentle, golden-yellow; bloom all summer and can be dried for a delicious tea. Leaves are a substitute for French Tarragon and thrive in warm areas where tarragon does not grow. Can be added to sangria, punches, mulled cider and used as a tea to calm nerves, stomachs and cure hangovers. Also good in vinaigrettes.
Recent articles suggest that orange marigold petals are fed to laying hens to make the color of their egg yolks a deeper color. A more important benefit is that the pigment of the petals contains beneficial compounds that aid eye health.
