What is Soffritto?
Soffritto is the cornerstone of many Italian and Mediterranean recipes. It’s a flavorful base typically made by sautéing finely chopped onions, carrots, and celery in olive oil or butter. Sometimes, garlic or herbs are added to the mix, enhancing the depth of flavor even further. The result is a savory, aromatic foundation that provides a rich, savory flavor to everything it’s added to, from pasta sauces to soups and stews.
