Swad Bay Leaves 1 Oz

• Indian Bay Leaves

Indian bay leaf or malabathrum (Cinnamomum tamala, Lauraceae) is somewhat


similar in appearance to the leaves of bay laurel, but is culinarily quite


different, having a fragrance and taste similar to cinnamon (cassia) bark, but


milder. In Indian and Pakistani cuisine, bay laurel leaves are sometimes used


in place of Indian bay leaf, although they have a different flavor. They are


most often used in rice dishes like biryani and as an ingredient in garam


masala.
