Spice House owners Patty and Tom Erd had been married for many years before Patty tried something new by throwing a few bay leaves in with her roast pork chops. She received the supreme compliment from her husband: "What did you do? These are as good as my Mom's!" Remember: When ordering bulk bay leaves, as well as herbs, these are very lightweight. One-half ounce of these bay leaves is approximately 1 cup in volume. Ingredients: Bay leaves.

I needed more Bay Leaves because I was storing a variety of grains and wanted to add a bay leaf to many glass containers. I judged the leaves on the basis of their aroma, on the assumptions that the stronger the smell the more the critters would not want to live with my dried food. The smell was strong enough. What surprised me was that the leaves were small. I suppose it really makes no difference in the end, as the taste/smell is what counts.
This was an essential herb I had run out of, so I was looking to replenish my stock. This was the most economical option I could find on the web, since these flat packs ship for free. Although I haven't yet had occasion to use them, they are large whole leaves and I am very pleased with this purchase. Would highly recommend!
I am in love with these bay leaves. Actually have a scent and a feeling of life to them. And wow, did they make my beans even better than usual.
Upon opening the flatpack of Turkish Bay Leaves, I was immediately met with a beautiful, aromatic scent. These leaves are significantly more fragrant than any brands I have purchased at grocery stores. They were a lovely addition to several batches of oven-roasted tomato sauce I made to freeze produce from the garden. I have also added the leaves to homemade chicken stock and slow-cooked black beans.
Receiving beautiful bay leaves, carefully packed and shipped was a revelation! I use bay leaves all
the time in my cooking and am delighted with the flavor and quality . The Spice House made ordering fast and easy. I won't ever go back to store bought or other sources.
