RE: Forager’s Hike: Walking Through Bay Laurel and Miner’s Lettuce
The best kind for cooking is the Mediterranean bay leaf (also known as culinary bay), so that's probably what you are getting there. The California one is more intensely flavored and more difficult to use in cooking.
Lettuce is common in the place where I live. It's very tasty mostly in winter and it has great health benefits.We don't need a melting pot in this country, folks. We need a salad bowl. In a salad bowl, you put in the different things. You want the vegetables - the lettuce, the cucumbers, the onions, the green peppers - to maintain their identity. You appreciate differences.
