Laurel Leaves

Laurel leaves, also known as bay leaves, are dried aromatic leaves from the Laurus nobilis plant, widely used to add depth and flavor to a variety of dishes. With a subtle, herbal, and slightly floral fragrance, these whole leaves are a staple in Mediterranean, Asian, and Latin American cuisines. Typically used in slow-cooked recipes, they infuse broths, stews, and sauces with a warm, savory essence and are removed before serving.

Common Uses: Soups, stews, sauces, rice dishes, marinades, pickling, and herbal teas.
