I made a soup, and added a bay leaf. The recipe says to remove it before pureeing, but I cant find it!!! Is it terrible to blend the missing leaf together with everything else?

BTW, I used a dried leaf.

Well, see, I wasnt sure, so I asked! It's the Root Vegetable Soup, from Kosher By Design Entertains. Smells delish. I'll letcha know how it tastes.

Try using the large holed serving spoon to "sift" thru the soup, it might show up.

I would not pure it with the bay leaf in it. Bay leaves do not get soft and edible when they are cooked. I would think that it would make fibrous chewy bits in your soup if you pureed it.

I wouldnt puree it either. Sifting through the soup should help you find it.

happens to me a lot. pureeing it makes the bay leaf sort of like eating a sharp bone. get yourself a tea ball for the next batch of soup.

Wrapping it in a piece of cheesecloth will also work.

I had the same problem today in my spaghetti sauce. It had 2 bay leaves in it and I could only find one.

Okay, so here's what I did. I couldnt find that darn leaf for the life of me. So I just pureed the soup as is and BNM - it was absolutely scrumptious!!! I adjusted the herbs, though, since my husband doesnt like strong herb-y flavors, but it was really, really good. Bnm, it's not the winter white soup, it's called root vegetable soup. Yum.
