A cornerstone of culinary traditions worldwide, our Whole Dried Bay Leaves are carefully selected for their robust aroma and complex, earthy flavour.
These fragrant leaves are the secret to building deep, savoury foundations in stocks, stews, and sauces. Bay leaves are a foundational element used to build layers of flavour in long-simmering dishes.
They are famously used in:
Stocks & Broths: The essential starting point for a clear, aromatic chicken, beef, or vegetable stock.
Hearty Stews & Casseroles: Adds depth to your favourite winter warmer, like a classic beef stew or lamb casserole.
Sauces & Braises: Infuses tomato-based pasta sauces, ragus, and braised meats with a complex background note.
Pickling & Poaching: A key component in pickling brines and court-bouillons for poaching fish and seafood. Rice & Grains: Tuck a single leaf into the pot when cooking rice, quinoa, or lentils for a subtle, fragrant upgrade.
Important Note: Bay leaves are used to impart flavour during cooking but are not meant to be eaten. Always remember to remove them before serving your dish.
Storage: For maximum potency, store in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place. Your bay leaves will retain their flavour for up to a year.
Note: Checkout will occur on the merchants website, and will open in a new browser tab.
