Bay leaves are a fixture in the cooking of many European cuisines (particularly those of the Mediterranean), as well as in North America. They are used in soups, stews, meat, [[:Category:Fish recipes|seafood]], and [[:Category:Vegetable recipes|vegetable dishes]]. The leaves also flavour classic French dishes such as [[bouillabaise]] and [[bouillon]]. The leaves are most often used whole (sometimes in a [[bouquet garni]]), and removed before serving. In [[Indian cuisine]], bay leaves are often used in [[biryani]] and many salads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bay leaves can also be crushed (or ground) before cooking. Crushed bay leaves impart more of their desired fragrance than whole leaves, and there is less chance of biting into a leaf directly.&lt;br /&gt;
