I don't actually find this to be the case. To my palate they have amore pungent, garlicky aroma than a typical onion. However, we typically use them in small quantities. Think: an accent to a vinaigrette, tossed with roasted vegetables, sautéed with garlic for a pan sauce, or as the base for a risotto. Like onions and garlic, controlling their pungency is a key part of their preparations. This aroma arises from a unique chemical process. Within intact shallot cells, precursor molecules exist separately. Upon cell rupture during cutting, these precursors combine to form lachrymatory compounds, the volatile sulfur compounds responsible for the characteristic eye-watering effect and sharp flavor. To minimize premature formation of these compounds and thereby accentuate the shallots' more subtle flavors, it's important to shop for, store, and chop them with care.   / 118677258   BOOKS The Food Lab: https://booklarder.com/products/the-f...
