These premium Bay Leaves from Meghalaya, locally known as Sla-Tyrpad, are collected from trees native to the Khasi, Jaintia, and Garo Hills. Deeply rooted in the region’s natural and cultural landscape, these aromatic leaves are valued for the warm, layered flavour they bring to cooking. In Khasi, Sla refers to leaves, while Tyrpad refers to a broad-leaved tree species, giving this ingredient a strong local identity. Ideal for pulao, biryani, curries, dals, soups, stews, and sauces, these bay leaves slowly release their aroma during cooking and add depth to the dish. If you are looking for authentic, regionally distinctive bay leaf from Meghalaya, this is a premium spice that brings traditional flavour, local heritage, and natural aroma to your everyday kitchen.
