Notes

1. Eschalots in Australia are known as shallots in the US and much of the rest of the world. It is also referred to as a French shallot. They are small onions. They taste more mild than onions, slightly sweeter, and the flesh is more tender so it sort of "dissolves" in sauces and dressings better (if finely chopped).

2. This keeps for up to 2 weeks in the fridge in an airtight jar. Beyond this, the flavour of the eschalot starts to noticeably fade.
