My husband is not a big arugula fan - too spicy. But the combination of tastes won him over. I think the tarragon toned down the spice of the arugula and the dressing was perfect.

Made this salad tonight along with Giada's Angel Hair pasta with goat cheese & sundried tomatoes. Great tasting salad, good dressing to use again. I did not put the tarragon or fennel in though, left those out as per some other reviews.
