Culinary Uses
Bay leaves are used toenhance the flavor of biryani, pulao, curries, soups, and stews. They infuse the dish with a subtle aroma and depth that balances strong spices. Often combined with cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves, bay leaves form an integral part of Indian garam masala and other spice blends.
