Bay Leaves Powder

Bay Leaves, also called Laurel Leaves, are the leaf of the sweet bay tree, Laurus nobilis, an evergreen of the family Lauraceae, indigenous to countries bordering the Mediterranean. A popular spice used in pickling and marinating and to flavor stews, stuffing, and fish, bay leaves are delicately fragrant but have a bitter taste. They contain approximately 2 percent essential oil, the principal component of which is cine ole. The smooth and lustrous dried bay leaves are usually used whole and then removed from the dish after cooking; they are also used in powdered form. Bay has been cultivated from ancient times; its leaves constituted the wreaths of laurel that crowned victorious athletes in ancient Greece. During the European Middle Ages bay leaves were used medicinally.

Bay leaves powder is used in pickling, marinating, and flavoring many dishes.
