Shallots (Air Dried)

Shallots have the flavor of onion, but are mellower, sweeter, and have hints of nuts and sweet vinegar to them. If you’re ever looking for a way to make your sauces, stuffings, and stocks a bit more elegant then shallots are what you want.

Shallots have a short shelf life and, admittedly, can be a pain to dice. Air dried shallots are ready to go when you are. Just add a few to a liquid – cold or hot – and allow them to soften up. When ready, just cook the recipe as you normally would. Fragrant and easy.

Protip: Dried shallots are light as a feather. Throw some in your backpack if you plan to do some cooking on a camping trip.
