Shallot Golden Gourmet Set - Pack of 12
00178103
A wonderfully tasty shallot, the Golden Gourmets have a mild taste and are excellent for pickling. Shallots, resembling small onions with a tapered shape and multiple cloves, boast a mild, sweet flavour. Popular in dressings and gourmet recipes, they offer a nuanced taste compared to regular onions. Grown from bulbs in well-drained soil and full sunlight planted in early spring, shallots require regular watering and benefit from mulching. Harvest when tops yellow and cure in a shaded area. Stored in a cool, dry place, shallots last months. In culinary substitution, onions and garlic can mimic their flavour. Highly valued for their versatility, shallots are a straightforward crop for home gardeners, sharing cultivation practices with onions. Shallots should be planted up to 5cm deep and 10-15cm apart.
