Eschalots

Bulb Vegetable

Eschalots, also known as shallots, are generally available year-round in Queensland, but they are at their peak during the cooler months, from March to August.

Eschalots are cultivated across various regions in Australia, including Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. They prefer well-drained soil and cooler climates, making them suitable for cultivation in many parts of the country.

Eschalots are prized for their mild and delicate flavour, which is more subtle than that of onions. In Australia, their popularity has been growing, particularly among gourmet cooks and those who appreciate their refined taste. Eschalots are increasingly used in a variety of culinary applications, from traditional recipes to modern cuisine.

In Australian cuisine, eschalots are used for their mild and sweet flavour. They are a key ingredient in many dishes, including sauces, dressings, and marinades. Eschalots are often sautéed and used as a base for many recipes, adding depth and flavour without overpowering other ingredients. They are also popular in pickles, relishes, and are used as garnishes. Due to their subtle flavour, they are ideal for use in salads and dishes where a gentle onion flavour is desired.
