The Holy Trinity of Cooking

One thing you will see repeated over and over in southern cooking is the use of the The Trinity - onion, celery and bell pepper - generally used in equal amounts, but not always.

Far as I know, it originated in Cajun and Creole cooking in Louisiana, but is the base of many, many dishes all over The Deep South. Hardly a southern kitchen is without these three primary ingredients pretty much all the time. They are simply a kitchen staple to us.

  1. "The Trinity" I love it! I'm from Louisiana and yes it is difficult to cook without onions, bell pepper, or celery. I came across your website when I googled Small peas with a roux. I'm in love with your reciepes. I've printed at least 10 so far. Great website. Keep it going. Merry Christmas. I'm going cook my Roux! =)
