Shallots

Vegetables Year-round ♂ Mars

Shallots are a year-round gourmet essential, prized for their delicate, sweet, and less pungent flavor compared to onions. While the British harvest peaks in late summer, cured bulbs provide consistent quality through the winter. They are a concentrated source of antioxidants, fiber, and vitamin B6.
