Turkish Bay Leaves

Bay leaves

Laurus nobilis has been woven into Mediterranean culture since antiquity ‚ the laurel wreath of ancient Greece, the herb of Apollo, the mark of achievement.

A cornerstone of French bouquet garni for centuries, Turkish bay infuses long, low cooking with a classical herbal character that holds its presence through hours of simmering without sharpening.

Add 2-3 leaves to stocks, soups, roasts, and stews at the beginning of cooking for maximum infusion.Include in pickling and brining mixes as a foundational aromatic element.Simmer in cream-based sauces and béchamels for gentle, classical herbal depth.
