aniseed and decrease heat to medium. If using dried tarragon, add it now.
Cover and cook 3 minutes. Add the broccoli and milk and cook, uncovered,
another 2 minutes. Taste the soup for salt and pepper and add as desired.
To serve, use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon, chicken, shrimp and

off heat and add the chopped fresh tarragon leaves. Serve the soup in a
tureen and ladle it into the garnished bowls at the table.
