BOTANICAL NAME : Laurus nobilis

A bay leaf is a fragrant leaf from a laurel tree that is used as an herb. Bay leaves can be used fresh or dry, but dried ones tend to have a stronger flavor. Fresh bay leaves are a shiny dark green on their tops with a duller, lighter green underside. When they're dried, they look pretty much the same on both sides.
