FAQ
How do I use whole bay leaves?
Add 1–2 leaves to soups, sauces, or braises while cooking, then remove before serving. Bay leaves release their flavor slowly as the dish simmers.
How many bay leaves should I use?
Bay leaf is potent. Start with 1 leaf for smaller pots and 2 leaves for larger batches, then adjust based on taste.
How should I store it?
Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight to preserve aroma and flavor.
