This is a compound tense, so two verbs are required: the main verb and the past participle of whatever verb you're using. The past participle does not have to agree in gender or number with the subject. The formula is:

HABER + PAST PARTICIPLE OF VERB

Some examples:

1. I had eaten the food. = Yo había comido la comida.
2. She had bought the book. = Ella había comprado el libro.
3. We had taken the taxi. = Nosotros habíamos tomado el taxi.
