Herbs, Bunch of Sweet

A bunch of sweet herbs, which is often mentioned in recipes for soups, stews, etc., consists of two springs of parsley, one of orange or lemon thyme, and one bay-leaf, or two sprigs of parsley, one of sweet marjoram, one of winter savoury, and one of lemon-thyme. These herbs should be fastened securely together with thread; they can then be easily removed before the dish is served. (See also BOUQUET GARNI.)
