Culinary Uses: Bay leaves have a complex, aromatic flavor that’s a blend of herbal, slightly floral, and woody notes. They add a subtle depth to dishes, often described as a bit spicy and somewhat reminiscent of eucalyptus or menthol. The taste is quite subtle when used in cooking; bay leaves are typically added to soups, stews, and braises and then removed before serving. The flavor they impart is more about enhancing the overall profile of a dish rather than standing out on its own.
Cautions: Generally regarded as safe.
