Break up the bay leaf into small pieces and add it to your mortar. Use the pestle and grind it up a bit.
Next add in the oregano and thyme and ground until finely ground.
Measure and combine all spices, along with the bay, oregano and thyme in a container and stir to combine.
Store in a jar or container with a tight-fitting lid and store in dry, dark place for up to 6 months or longer.
