TBH I have no idea why bay leaves aren’t ground like other herbs — despite having spent my childhood watching my mom regularly put bay leaves in her cooking.

That might also be why I detect barely any taste in bay leaves.

Nah, you don’t want that. I don’t think the leaf would grind very well and it’s just supposed to be a hint of spice in the final dish.

  I live in a country where ground bay leaf is a very common spice to use. It’s just another powdered spice in a jar or a bag like cinnamon or curry.
