Instructions

  1. Dice: Thoroughly wash the vegetables and peel the carrots. Dice the onions, carrots, and celery in a 2:1:1 ratio.
  2. Cook: In a pan over low-medium heat, add a splash of oil or a knob of butter. Once that’s heated, add all of the mirepoix vegetables. Cook them low and slow for 10-12 minutes, or until the onions turn translucent and the other vegetables are softened.
  3. Remember to stir them occasionally and adjust the heat to prevent browning. Use your mirepoix immediately in your recipe or cool it and store it for later use!

Notes

  • Storage: Freshly chopped (uncooked) mirepoix can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
  • Or you can pre-chop the vegetables and store them in airtight containers or zip-lock bags for up to 6 months in the freezer. Frozen mirepoix is great for blended soups and stews since onions and celery don’t hold up too well once thawed.
