Known also as "laurel". Bay leaves come from all the countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, Mexico, Guatemala, and Russia. Although required in Spanish, Italian, and Cuban cooking, these leaves are very strong in flavor and should be used carefully while preparing lamb, liver stews, soups, and stocks. Bay leaves are essential in "pickling".
