Note

If using dried tarragon, add it during the simmering phase with the liquid. If using fresh tarragon, add it at the end with the parsley to preserve its delicate flavor.

Ensure the pan is large enough so the potatoes are mostly submerged in the liquid, or add a splash of water if needed to prevent scorching before they are tender.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water to refresh the sauce.

For a vegan version, substitute the unsalted butter with an equal amount of olive oil or vegan butter.
