Bay Leaves, Whole

Bay Leaves, Whole

Laurus nobilis

In Ancient Greek Mythology Apollo was madly in love with the nymph Daphne, but she did not feel the same way towards him. To protect Daphne from Apollo’s obsession, the Gods turn her into a bay tree and in fact to this day the Greek word for the herb is “danfi.” Do not worry, our obsession with “danfi” only applies to food. Perfect for situations where the Bay leaves’ slightly bitter flavor can be released slowly such as in soups and stews.
