Native to Asia Minor and the Mediterranean, this aromatic herb comes from the bay laurel tree. Bay leaves have a pungent, bitter flavor and are used in soups, stews, vegetable and meat dishes - especially in French or Pakistani dishes. The whole leaves are tough and inedible so remove them before serving.
Available in resealable bags containing 12-15 leaves (0.2 oz). For larger quantities, please email us at service@summitspiceandtea.com
Spices and herbs should be stored away from light, heat and moisture. However, storing spices in the refrigerator or freezer may actually shorten their shelf life and they risk picking up other food odors. In general, whole spices have a longer shelf life than ground spices. Depending on the spice and how well it is stored, a good rule of thumb is six months to a year for powdered spices and longer for whole spices and seeds. The best way to determine if your spices or herbs are still fresh is to close your eyes and sniff – if you cannot immediately tell what the herb or spice is, toss it!
