GRAY
Allium oschaninii The culinary star! Grays are considered the crème de la crème among shallots for their delicious, umami flavor. Sought out above all other varieties, these fetch the highest prices at market—and for good reason! Although the bulbs tend to run smaller than others, their magnificent flavor and quality in recipes more than makes up for their relatively diminutive size.
Shallot bulbs are shipped only in the fall—starting in mid-September, depending on the season and the variety. Approximate bulbs per pound is 15–30, but this can vary based on seasonal conditions and the variety. Shallots need to be planted shortly after arrival. Quantities are limited; order early for best availability. Sorry, not available to Idaho, US Territories, or Canada.
