This Mirepoix Hack Will Change Your Life
Frozen mirepoix is the ULTIMATE time (and money!) saving kitchen tip. I learned this genius method in @tamar.e.adler’s new cookbook, The Everlasting Meal, which is all about repurposing leftovers and getting more mileage out of the ingredients you already have at home.✨ Here’s how to make it:
🥕 Dice celery and carrots along with an onion and place them in a @cookanyday dish.
🧂 Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, then cover with the vented lid.
⚡️ Cook the mirepoix in the microwave for 4-6 minutes until softened and fragrant.
🧊 Let the cooked mirepoix cool slightly, then spoon the mixture into @cookanyday freezer trays. (They come in 1/2 cup and 2 tablespoon sizes and have this awesome lid so you can stack them and avoid freezer burn.)
⏰ Get a head start on dinner whenever you want — without ANY chopping. And none of your veggies will go to waste!
