idk but I just planted like 20 shallots.

Because they're more delicate that onions and perfect for sauces. Also, make me a fried onion or leek that turns out as good as crispy fried shallots.

Why do chefs use better onions, is that what you're asking? The superior onion, you're asking why they use the superior onion instead of the standard onion, to be clear.

no, I like onions, have a great respect for them. They're a real workhorse vegetable. But shallots are in a whole new league.

I mean its another variety of onion. Do you only use one kind of onion? No of course not, so you use shallots when theyre best called for or when you feel like it just like any other onion variety.

They taste better than onions and they're are larger than garlic. It's like a compromise between chopping 10 tiny, very tasty alliums or eating 1 large, relatively flavorless allium.

It tastes good? Little sweeter, not as Sharp. Indians use it all the time for their curries, white onions are too acidic I guess.
