In a large bowl, flake salmon with a fork, crushing skin and bones. Add breadcrumbs, onion, parsley and tarragon. Mix well. Place mixture in a buttered non-stick 9 x 5 inch (23 x 13 cm) loaf pan.
Beat together eggs, salt and pepper until eggs are just blended. Stir in hot liquid. Pour over salmon mixture in loaf pan. Bake in a 350 °F (180 °C) oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until firm. Loosen loaf with a spatula and turn out of pan.
