Origini Mediterranee
Bay laurel (Laurus nobilis) has been a sacred plant since antiquity: the Greeks used laurel wreaths to honour poets and athletes (hence "laureates"), and the Romans used them for military triumphs. It grows wild throughout Mediterranean Italy (Liguria, Tuscany, Apulia, Calabria, Sicily). The leaves, harvested when mature and dried in the sun or in a dehydrator at 35-40 °C, retain their grey-green colour and concentrate the main essential oils: cineole (eucalyptol), linalool, eugenol. Pavoncelli is a historic Italian supplier of spices for the food service industry.
Usi Professionali in Cucina
Beef stew (1-2 leaves per 1 kg meat, cooked for 3-4 hours). Brasato al Barolo (3-4 leaves). Slow-cooked tomato sauce (1 leaf per 1 L tomato).
