About Small shallot
Small shallots are a versatile ingredient prized for their subtle sweetness and mild onion-like flavor. Native to Central and Southeast Asia, they are staples in French, Mediterranean, and Southeast Asian cuisines, adding depth to sauces, dressings, and stir-fries. Rich in antioxidants like quercetin, shallots may support immune function and heart health. They also contain vitamins A, B6, and C, as well as potassium and manganese, which promote skin health, cell repair, and proper nerve function. Lower in sulfur than regular onions, shallots are gentler on digestion, making them a preferred choice for sensitive stomachs. However, like regular onions, they contain fructans, which can cause bloating for individuals with certain sensitivities. Low in calories and naturally fat-free, small shallots are an excellent option for enhancing flavor without adding unwanted fats or sugars. Their compact size makes them easy to peel and use in small or intricate dishes.
