A bouquet garnis is simply a combination of herbs and vegetables which
you add to soups or stock for flavor. Here's an example of one from
the Joy of Cooking:
Bunch together:
3 or 4 sprigs parsley
1/3 to 1/2 bay leaf
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 leek (white part only)
2 cloves
To make removal easier, you can place them between several overlapping
celery ribs.
... and bind tightly with a white string.
If you cannot get fresh materials, wrap dried herbs, still on the stem
or coarsely crumbled but not powdered, in 4 inch squares of cheesecloth
tied into small bags. Store them in a tightly covered container.
For 12 bags, allow:
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 tablespoon each of thyme, marjoram
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons dried celery leaves.

You can also try putting them in a teaball if you don't want to bother
with or don't have the cheese cloth.
