Funny to admit, but I've cooked every day for 20 years and I have no idea what contribution
a Bay Leaf makes...
I bought a beautiful bag of Turkish Bay Leaves from the online spice house I get stuff from
and everything...
I tried chewing on them, wet and dry--- nuthin'...
The stuff I've made with them has been good, but it a been good anyway maybe...
I guess I'll have to do a recipe I vaguely remember from a Cook's Illustrated magazine
a buncha years back...
They took a baking potato and made 5 deep slices into it and placed a bay leaf into each slice...
Olive oil, salt and pepper-- and 'wrapped em' up in foll' (Paula Deen)...
They said the bay leaves did something good...
I guess I'll have to try that... We'll see...
