Nero Shallot Sets are a great choice for gardeners who want tasty green onions early in the growing season and storage shallots later in the summer. Nero shallots are traditional, round-shaped bulbs with bronze-red-colored skin, pink flesh, and excellent storage quality. Shallots are highly desired by chefs for their easy-to-peel elongated bulbs and high sugar profile, perfectly suiting them for caramelizing. In contrast to onions, red shallots have thinner layers and are quicker to lose their pungency in cooking, leaving a delicate yet high depth of flavor while retaining their crunch. When raw, they have a powerful flavor with less bite. Shallots are excellent for roasting whole in tarte tatins and curries, pairing with chicken and fish, caramelizing with steak, pickling, and chopped in soffritos and vinaigrettes. Nero Shallots grow well very in cool climates and are usually 1-1/2-inches-wide by 3 inches long at maturity. About Shallot Sets or Bulbs: Shallot sets and Onion sets are small starter bulbs specifically for gardening. Shallot sets are reliable and easy to grow, they establish quickly, and are easy to plant compared to seeds or transplants. Plant in Fall for an early Summer harvest or in early Spring for a harvest in late Summer. Also Known As: Echalote, Esharotto, Ulle, Torshi, Mooseer, Sibuya, Shallot Starts, Echalion, French Shallot, Red Shallot, Round Shallot, Traditional Shallot, Globe Shallot.
