Basic Info:

Bay leaves are the aromatic, dried leaves from the Mediterranean Bay laurel tree (Laurus nobilis), prized for adding a subtle, herbal, slightly floral, and pungent flavour to slow-cooked dishes like soups, stews, and sauces, though they’re removed before serving due to their tough texture.Used for millennia, they symbolised victory in ancient Greece and Rome and remain essential in many global cuisines.
