I don't often use fresh tomatoes other than in salads or for making salsa. But this baked dish is very good, and the aniseedy fresh tarragon pairs fantastically with the tomatoes. Try serving this with roast chicken or steamed fish!
How to Make Baked Tomatoes with Tarragon
Slice the tomatoes and place them into a small baking dish in layers. In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped fresh tarragon and salt and pepper. Spread the mixture over the tomatoes.
Place in a preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the topping starts to darken. Grind some extra black pepper over the tomatoes and serve. 
It's best to use a slotted spoon for serving as the tomatoes will have released a lot of water!

Tarragon is one of those herbs I always forget exists. Yet it is delicious. Thanks for this recipe and the reminder!

I love easy sides to make with dinner. I love tarragon but often forget that it tastes as great with vegetables as it does with meats. Thanks for the recipe.

I’m not a big tomato fan by my step dad would love this! He loves to slice up tomatoes and add stuff to them. Even just mayo!
