About Shallot
Shallots are a type of small, mild-flavored onion often used in a variety of cuisines, particularly French, Southeast Asian, and Mediterranean cooking. They boast a delicate sweetness combined with subtle sharpness, making them versatile for salads, dressings, sautés, and sauces. Originating from Central or Southwest Asia, shallots are rich in essential nutrients like vitamins A, B6, and C, and contain minerals such as potassium, manganese, and folate. They also provide antioxidants and compounds like quercetin and allicin, which are known to support heart health, boost immunity, and reduce inflammation. Featuring low calories and negligible fat, shallots are a healthy addition to meals. They are high in dietary fiber for digestive health but should be consumed in moderation by individuals sensitive to sulfur compounds or prone to acid reflux. Overall, shallots offer a flavorful and nutrient-rich option for enhancing dishes while promoting overall well-being.
