That’s why we are so excited to announce a new addition to our product line: Mirepoix. Mirepoix is an aromatic mix of onions, carrots, and celery. Any great chef knows that Mirepoix is the base for hundreds of delicious recipes, and now home chefs like you can reap the benefits, too, without all the prep work. How Do I Use Mirepoix? Mirepoix is one of the most versatile and essential vegetable blends. It’s a third onion, a third celery, and a third carrot. It can be added to or serve as a base for sauces, soups, and marinades. It makes a killer roux. It can accompany braised meats. You can toss it in a slow cooker or pressure cooker for added flavor to just about anything you’re whipping up. Oh, and it’s really tasty in casseroles. So, why don’t more people use Mirepoix in their everyday cooking? Because it is a pain to prepare. That barrier goes away with our pre-diced, pre-mixed Mirepoix blend. Here are a few fun recipes that call for Mirepoix to get your creative juices flowing: Beef and Herbed Biscuit Pot Pie Sweet Potato Split Pea Corn Chowder Moroccan Harissa Burger Bolognese Sauce Ultimate Chicken Noodle Soup Striped Bass with Mirepoix Quinoa Pilaf with Mirepoix Port-Braised Short Ribs Less Chopping, More Enjoying During the pandemic, so many people found their passion for cooking delicious meals at home. The only thing that makes fresh, home cooked food even better is when your vegetables are prepped and ready to go. Spend less time chopping, dicing, and slicing and more time enjoying food with the ones you love. Oh, and don’t forget that eliminating the need to chop up all those vegetables also eliminates the chance of knife injuries in your kitchen. Definitely an added bonus.
