Περιγραφή
Bay leaves have been used in our kitchens for thousands of years. References to bay leaves can be found as far back as the time of Homer, and in ancient times the bay tree was considered sacred. It was credited with many healing properties, mainly antiseptic and relaxing ones. And rightly so, since according to traditional medicine, bay leaves:
- Have fever-reducing properties.
- Reduce anxiety and stress.
- Inhaling steam from bay leaves “opens up” the respiratory system.
- Help relieve insomnia.
