Ferbar Louro Folhas 90g - Whole Bay Leaves

Enhance your culinary creations with the authentic aroma of Ferbar Louro Folhas. This generous 90g package contains high-quality whole bay leaves, an essential aromatic herb in Portuguese, Spanish, and Brazilian cooking, as well as classic European cuisine. Ferbar's bay leaves are carefully selected to provide that distinct, slightly minty, and peppery flavor that deepens the complexity of stews, soups, and marinades.

The Essential Herb for Depth of Flavor

Bay leaves are an indispensable pantry staple for adding savory depth and a subtle aromatic complexity to slow-cooked dishes. They are key to many traditional Iberian Peninsula recipes, providing the background flavor foundation for feijoadas, caldo verde, and rich meat stews. Using whole leaves ensures the flavor is released gradually, preventing any bitterness.

Serving Suggestions

Add one or two bay leaves to soups, stews, pot roasts, and braises at the beginning of the cooking process for a beautiful, savory aroma. Use in marinades for meat or fish to add an authentic Portuguese touch. Infuse into the cooking liquid for rice or lentils for subtle background flavor. Remember to remove the whole bay leaves before serving the dish.
