Steps

1

Place the 8 bay leaves on a piece of clean cloth (towel) and beat them furiously, grind them, twist them and beat them again and once more grind them, do whatever it takes to turn them into a powder as fine as you possibly can.
2

Place the ground bay leaves together with the rest of the spices in the clean jar and mix very well.
3

Close the jar tightly and place it in a dry and dark place together with the rest of your spices (in the kitchen cabinet) until you use it.
