    Followed the recipe exactly. Our whole family thought it was very bland and lacked in flavour.

    Lovely taste.  I was scared to make this for my kids, but as I love tarragon I decided to try it.  They loved it.  Will do this again tmrc_emoticons.D

    I was really looking forward to this but opted for the ver juice and vinegar substitute. It went wrong as I didn't get the balance right and it was too heavy on the vinegar, I had used 50/50. Can you please tell me what proportions you use as I am keen to get this right. tmrc_emoticons.((
