DIY bouquet garni
Making your own bouquet garni (herb bag) at home is easy and only needs a few small tools.
- A small square of cloth- cheese cloth or muslin (you can find this at The Essential Ingredient)
- A piece of string
- A selection of your favourite herbs (we’ve gone with sage, peppercorns, parsley, thyme, bay leaves and rosemary)
Instructions:
- Place your cloth on a plate
- Layer your selected herbs in the middle
- Gather the corners together
- Tie with string
- Drop into your favourite casserole, stew or soup for a delicious flavour, minus the herby bits!
Hint: you can also do this without the cloth- simply gather all your herbs into a bundle and tie together securely with the string.
