yes use a piece of cheese cloth and tie the end shut.

Little bit of muslin tied at the top with all your spices inside works. Bit like a spicy teabag.

Maybe you could try putting them in cheesecloth and tying the cheesecloth off with cooking twine. That way you would only have to remove the cheesecloth bag at the end.

Sure. Just put them on a piece of cheesecloth, then pull up the edges all around and tie at the top with a piece of string. Voila!

Cheese Cloth is what is use with string tied at the top to pull it out when need be.

Yes!
Use a cheesecloth. It allows for the flavors to come through but keeps the individual spices, such as cloves and bay leaves, together.
Get cheesecloth from any store.

Yes, that is actually the preferred method, is by putting your herbs in a little potato sack, tie off the ends, it works perfecrtly.

they probably have little bags just for that. I think you can use cheese cloth sewn into a bag. Or empty out a tea bag. Go to one of those cooking stores and I am sure they will have something you can use.

Use a tea infuser. The tea infuser works very well, only thing is that you have to break up the cinnamon sticks.

clean foot of pair of tights, you can then tie the end

make a pouch with several layers of cheese cloth and tie the top with string or knot the top of the bag together

Sure you can. Either tie them up in cheesecloth, or some kitchen shops sell little cloth bags just for that purpose. Works well for bouquet garni too.

Tie them in a muslin bag and leave the string hanging over the side of the pot. You can make a little pouch out of gauze and tie it at the top

couldn’t you use some kind of strainer to keep them seperated whilst cooking?

Place your spices in a piece of cheesecloth and tie the end closed. Make a square big enough to hold your spices and allow for some space as some spices expand while cooking. Bring the ends up and tie off. Just remove the bag when ready.

use a square of muslin and just tie the top

Warp everything in muslin and create your own bouquet garni. I love a good curry if there’s any going spare.

Yes of course there is. Go down to your local habidashery shop and ask for some muslin cloth. Put your herbs in and tie it up tight with strong cotton or string. Its in the bag.

What you’re describing is called a Bouquet Garni, and it’s used all the time. Cheesecloth is the traditional material for the “pouch”, but the suggestions of a tea ball (tea infuser) or a small muslin sack are fine, too.
I’ll use a bouquet garni for sauces, stews, and soups. The dry spices (like cardamom or cinnamon, or even whole peppercorns) can flavor the food, but since they’re not ground up, they don’t overpower the food. I always have paper “basket” type coffee filters in the house, and I’ll use those (instead of cuttin’ up my cheesecloth). Just tie it shut with a piece of string, and leave the string long enough to reach over the edge of your cooking pot (you can even tie the other end of the string to the pot handle, do keep it from falling back in). When the cooking is done, it’s easy to pull the bouquet garni out of the pot. And if you’re worried about the coffee filter tearing, just layer two of them together.

cut the foot of an old pair of tights.tie with string and attach to the handle of the pan.

yes, use a teabag…they sell empty teabags at every grocery store next to the tea. if yours doesn’t have them, but coffee filters and tie the herbs in with a rubber band.

you can buy spice bags from spices etc. or use a piece of cheese cloth.

Cheesecloth. cut a good sized piece and fold it up, lay the spices on it and tie with kitchen twine.
