Much of our business grows out of the soil, which keeps us mindful of our role in protecting Earth’s resources. Our goals include continuously reducing our global water usage, greenhouse gas emissions, electricity usage and solid waste.

Product Description

McCormick Culinary Whole Bay Leaves add an unmistakably rich, savory flavor to various dishes. Whole bay leaves, also known as dried laurel leaves, are a staple in Mediterranean, Indian, Greek and French cuisine. Whether you add these dried bay leaves into a soup or marinade, you can count on this spice to add a warm undertone that's impossible to resist. This product only contains leaves from Turkish-grown bay trees to ensure your recipes boast the best flavor profile and minty aroma. Hand-selected bay leaves guarantee that the finished result is perfectly balanced and pure. What's more, your dried bay leaves arrive packaged for freshness in a 2-ounce plastic container, making them the perfect addition for chefs and back-of-house use. With their flavor and versatility, McCormick Culinary Whole Bay Leaves will become a staple in your kitchen. While this spice works best when you allow it to release its flavor slowly, you can incorporate it into all kinds of recipes and use it as a supporting herb. You'll find that it helps to round out the other spice and herb flavors, creating a warm, comforting floral flavor. This dried spice complements entrees ranging from soups and chowders to meat and vegetable dishes. Whether you stew, simmer or boil it, adding just one to two dried bay leaves will add a robust taste. Sides such as beans and risotto will take on a new flavor profile with the addition of a few bay leaves. Want to elevate the taste of your favorite appetizer, sauce or marinade? Adding bay leaves will help you achieve just that. Once your recipe is complete, remove the leaves and savor the aroma and taste. Along with transforming all kinds of recipes, these bulk bay leaves are kosher and MSG-free. You'll provide guests with a delicious experience while feeling confident that you're serving them a menu item with the highest-quality ingredients.
