Laurus nobilis Bay Leaf Whole from Turkiye, Certified Organically Grown.
The #bay leaf is an #aromatic #leaf commonly used as a #herb in #cooking. Bay leaves contain essential oils, such as #eucalyptol, #terpenes, and #methyleugenol, that contribute to their taste and #aroma. Bay leaves can also be used scattered in a #pantry to repel meal #moths, #flies, and #cockroaches and the essential oil has been found to be an effective #insect #repellent. Bay leaves are used in Eastern #Orthodox #Christian #liturgy to mark #Jesus' destruction of #Hades and freeing of the #dead. Parishioners throw bay leaves and #flowers into the air, letting them flutter to the ground. In #magic and #witchcraft, #wishes and #intentions are written on whole bay leaves before being #burned.
