Bay

Bay leaves are a type of herb commonly used in cooking to add flavour to dishes. These leaves come from the bay laurel tree, which is native to the Mediterranean region. The leaves are usually dried before being used in cooking, and they have a strong, aromatic taste.

To produce bay leaves, the leaves of the bay laurel tree are harvested and then dried. The drying process helps to intensify the flavour of the leaves, making them more potent when added to dishes. Once dried, the bay leaves are typically packaged and sold for use in cooking.

Bay leaves are often included in recipes to enhance the flavour of soups, stews, sauces, and marinades. They are known for their ability to add a subtle, earthy taste to dishes without overpowering other ingredients. Bay leaves can be found in a variety of foods, such as classic soups like chicken noodle soup and beef stew, as well as pasta sauces and braised meats.
