Topic: Matt: how many times can I re-use the same bay leaf?

cccuuunnttt !yDoooooooo started this discussion 9 years ago #62,321

I read somewhere that bay leaves (which are pretty expensive) can be reused, so I've been using the same one for the last 5 recipes. When do you think I need a new one? I obviously rinse it off in between.

I think you just can use them until they break too bad

As many times as your heart desires.

Is it fresh or dried?

Sounds like it's neither

@OP
That would depend, in fact, upon the purpose for which you intend to use it. Thanks.

Becky, I need to know whether it is fresh or dried.
