Shallots are a type of onion that have a milder, sweeter flavor and a more subtle texture than their larger cousins.

Recognisable by their brownish-yellow outer skin and a pinkish-purple inner layer. They are small in size, with each bulb consisting of several small cloves that are similar in appearance to garlic.

Shallots can be used in a variety of dishes, including sauces, dressings, soups, stews, and sautés. They are often used as a flavouring ingredient, providing a subtle sweetness and depth to the dish.

In addition to their culinary uses, shallots also offer several health benefits. They are a good source of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, and may help reduce inflammation and promote heart health.
