This new twist on the ever-popular chicken salad is tasty all by itself, or can be used as a sandwich filling. For a fancy party appetizer, stuff some into miniature cream puff shells.

- 2/3 cup lacto-fermented mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp. Dijon-style mustard

- 1 tsp. Celtic sea salt
- 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh tarragon or 2 tsp. dried tarragon
