For an even richer flavor, consider browning the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot. If you don't have fresh tarragon, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon, but fresh is highly recommended for its superior aroma and flavor. Adjust the amount of sugar and honey to your personal preference. Some may prefer a slightly sweeter stew. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or crème fraîche for added richness and tang.
