FAQ
What is the difference between Turkish bay leaves and California bay leaves?
Turkish bay leaves are milder and sweeter, while California bay leaves are stronger and more pungent. Turkish bay is better for dishes where you want subtle background flavor.
How many Turkish bay leaves should I use?
For most soups, stews, or sauces serving four to six people, two to three Turkish bay leaves are enough. Using too many can make the finished dish taste bitter.
