Put bay leafs open in your pantry. The Turkish leafs looks like a random little leaf from any garden bush, which it could be if you plant it there. You can put bay leafs in such as your tea, soups, stews, lasagnas and rice to flavour it. Love it! The reason to put it open in your pantry though is to keep the moths away, and it really does according to Frankie, that's a magazin. So this is what I learned, and will remember from today. If you got moths flying uninvited around and you don’t want to touch these not so fortunate as butterflies creatures, because if you do, they die and you’re ending up with dust on your hands, you reach for the bay leaves.
What I love, is that the house I've just moved into already got some dry bay leafs in a jar. Even more exciting is the fact that I can use them whenever I want. The house is a little commune, we travel far to get real good and cheap fruits and veggies. Cooking for each other, making pots of tea every day, going all Turkish just now with Turkish apple tea, and did I mention the veggie patch outside? We'r growing all sorts of tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, basil, eggplants and three different sorts of chilli! Taking me back to Tuscany, taking me back to nature.
