Bay Leaves, Whole .2 oz

Bay leaves, whether whole or ground, are often added to soups and stews for their strong herbal scent and sharp, bitter taste. These aromatic leaves are commonly used as cooking herbs, with a peppery flavor profile reminiscent of oregano and marjoram. While they can be consumed whole, it is more common to remove them before eating. Interestingly, the fragrant aroma of bay leaves tends to be more prominent than their taste. Additionally, essential oils found within the leaves, such as myrcene and eugenol, can be extracted and used in the production of perfumes.
