Gloomy

I’d even go so far as to say it’s as close to art as AI can possibly get.

Maybe i’m missing something here, but i’ve never in my life encountered a recipe where you’d let the bay leaves in the meal. The way i learned to use them you’d add a whole leaf or three at some point and remove them once the meal is finished. Maybe it’s a cultural thing? But it’s really wired to me to leave them in. I checked your recipe and it dosn’t say anything about removing them.

So you actually eat them?
