Mirepoix is a classic aromatic base in French cuisine, made by slowly cooking a combination of onions, carrots, and celery to enhance the sweetness and depth of various dishes.

Traditional Mirepoix Ratio:

1 part celery : 2 parts onions : 1 part carrots

This balanced blend adds richness to:
Soups & stews
Sauces & stocks
Braised meats

💡 Pro Tip: Cook mirepoix low and slow to bring out its natural sweetness without browning the vegetables.
