A Way to Live
There's nothing in this bottle but pure, organic, Premium Hand Select Grade true bay laurel leaves (Laurus nobilis). No GMOs. No ETO (considered carcinogenic by the EPA). Not irradiated. Certified Organic by QAI. Kosher Certified by KSA. Sweet, earthy aroma. Savory, balsamic, good-bitter flavor. This is the true bay experience. You may not know it when you taste it, but you know when it's missing. That stew or seafood dish just seem to need something? This is it.
-
Our bay leaves are Premium Hand Select Grade. This means that after mechanical sorting, two rounds of hand selection are done to ensure that these leaves are the best of the best. Only about 1% of all bay leaves meet the criteria for this grade. The leaves are then dried and shipped in time to be packaged for the current holiday season providing the fresh, robust flavor of recently harvested bay.
-
Relationships matter. People matter. In Turkey, laurel leaf collection is traditionally a side-source of income for families. But younger people are leaving the area for more lucrative city jobs. We and our sustainable sourcing partner Kutas are working with a collector cooperative that is adding value for its members by drying and processing bay leaves themselves.
-
Simply Organic believes in pure and potent flavor grown at the source. Our rigorous standards mean that we know precisely what you're getting, and from where. All of our products are grown and processed without the use of toxic pesticides, irradiation, or GMOs.

Vegan Irish Stew
- 2 cups carrots (cubed)
- 16 oz. mini portobello mushrooms (quartered)
- 2 cups leeks (diced)
- 6 cups potatoes (cubed)
- 2-4 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 6 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 2-3 bay leaves
- 2 Tbsp. molasses
- 1 tsp. garlic salt
- 1 tsp. dried thyme
- 3 Tbsp. tapioca flour
- In Dutch oven or big soup pot, heat olive oil. Sauté leeks a few minutes or until softened.
- Add carrots and mushrooms and sauté an additional 3-5 mins.
- Add vegetable broth, potatoes, tomato sauce, molasses, bay leaves, garlic salt and thyme.
- Bring to a boil, turn heat to low and simmer 30-40 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are cooked.
- Remove some broth and mix with the tapioca starch in a separate container to make a slurry, mixing a little flour at a time, so clumps do not form. Once all flour is mixed in, add the liquid back to the pot and cook for 5 more minutes, until the stew thickens.
- Serve warm.
