Description

Our organic Bay Leaf (also known as Laurel Leaf) is quite versatile when used for either tea or food seasonings. It is commonly used in cooking to enhance the flavor of food and to stimulate digestion.The warm scent becomes quite noticeable when the leaf is broken, releasing its fragrant oils. The Bay Leaf's flavor is slightly bitter and highly aromatic. Commonly used in soup, stew or sauce seasonings, the Bay Leaf can make foods with long cooking times quite flavorful. It's distinctive taste also makes it a good choice for pickling spice. It may be used singularly or with other organic herbs and spices as part of a bouquets garnish. When whole leaves are used, be sure to remove from the food before serving.

Traditionally used for balancing blood sugar, to slow weight gain; sedative; may help reduce high blood pressure; colic and indigestion.
