Bay leaf comes from the Laurus nobilis tree, native to the Mediterranean region, but has also become an essential part of Indian cooking traditions through the Indian variety known as Cinnamomum tamala.
In ancient Greece and Rome, bay leaves were symbols of victory, wisdom, and honor, worn as laurel wreaths by emperors, scholars, and athletes.
In Ayurveda and Indian tradition, bay leaves (tej patta) are valued for their digestive and healing properties, often used in curries, rice dishes, and home remedies.
Across the world, bay leaves have remained a symbol of flavor, culture, and holistic wellness for over two millennia.
