Latin American cooks have long recognized the value of bay leaves; they often incorporate them into stews like Mexico’s famous Pozole, Yucatan’s Cochinita Pibil, and mole sauce, as well as Brazil’s beloved Feijoada, which features pork & black beans. The unique flavor profile of bay leaves gradually infuses into the dish, so it’s best to add them early in the cooking process. Remember to remove the leaves before serving, as they are not meant to be consumed directly.
