What is a Filipino Mirepoix?In Western cooking, a mirepoix typically consists of onion, celery, and carrot, forming the base of stews, soups, and sauces. In Filipino cuisine, our flavour foundation is sautéed garlic, onions, and tomatoes, often seasoned with a touch of fish sauce or soy sauce. This trio creates the distinct savoury-sweet base that defines many of our beloved dishes, from adobo to ginisang gulay. | MotherBee
