Crispy fried shallots

Fried shallots make a fabulous condiment: sweet-yet-savory… and crunchy! That crunch, of course, is fried shallots’ most enticing attribute. But in order for the shallots to stay crisp, you’ll need to toss them with a bit of flour before pan-frying. If you omit this step, they’ll turn soggy in no time.

Try these delicious morsels as a garnish on soups and salads, or tuck them into a sandwich. You’ll be surprised how much flavor and texture fried shallots can add to any dish.

Sounds like a great snack or addition to any dish that needs a hint more of flavor and/or texture!

Although I’ve never made them myself, I’ve had fried shallots in restaurants and they are heavenly!
