Its key ingredient is tarragon vinegar.
Don't be tempted to substitute another vinegar.
Use the tarragon-infused version.
Tarragon is a staple herb found in many traditional French dishes, for example, in Béarnaise sauce which is a classic French steak sauce.
Its use here in a cole slaw recipe imparts a unique and gentle counterpoint to the tangy punch of the onion and vinegar.
