Freeze Dried Shallots, 7.65 oz, Flavorful, Food Storage, Bulk Container

Great product, adds so much flavor to sauces/soups without having to get a knife dirty.In most cases it's just as good as fresh, in some cases it's better. I grind these up fine with other spices for smooth sauces

I often use shallots when I cook. They are a more subtle taste than onions. Whole bulbs ones aren't always available and sometimes they're a bit pricey only to have them go bad by the time you use up a package of them. I found these and took a chance. $30 seemed like a lot, but being freeze dried, you're getting what seems like a lot of product. When I add them to soups and stews, I measure out whatever tsp or Tbsp amount is needed and just throw them in. But when making a sauce or topping, I put the amount into a small bowl with a bit of water and let them plump up. I strain off any excess liquid, add them to my pan and then they cook up just as if they were the shallots I dice up myself from a bulb.

Surprisingly high quality. If you take the time to reconstitute (re-hydrate) before you use them you can hardly tell the difference from "fresh" shallots.

excellent for every dish...highly recommended

I ordered this because it sounded good and it would of been nice to have in the kitchen. My item arrived with a broken seal the foil is very thin. The Item also has a black lid on it instead of the silver/gray color in the photo. The lid has brown residue under it and for the life of me I can't figure out where it came from. Maybe it was a replacement lid for another product.

Good but not sure i like it any better than mining garlic

Excellent product

Tastes great
