Home > Bouquet garni

There does not seem to be a general consensus about the ingredients of the bouquet garni, but it includes bay leaves, parsley and thyme at the very least. Other recipes for bouquet garni include basil, burnet , celery leaves, chervil, rosemary, savory and tarragon. Sometimes, vegetables such as carrot, celery, celery root, leek, onion and parsley root, are also included in the bouquet.

Sometimes, the bouquet is not bound with string, and its ingredients are filled into a small satchel or net instead.
