DETAILS

A staple in Vietnamese cuisine, our Coastal Purple Shallot is grown in Phan Rang. The shallot has a delightful sweetness perfectly balanced by a sharp yet subtle spiciness. This results in its unique and harmonious flavor profile. The savory aroma brings a great depth of flavor and complexity to the complete dish. This product comes in a resealable bag.

Net weight: 1.06 oz (30g)

HOW TO USE COASTAL PURPLE SHALLOTS

You can use Vietnamese coastal purple shallots in a variety of ways. Here are three of our favorite ways to use or rehydrate this classic Vietnamese herb.

    • Use in place of fresh shallot. Sprinkle on salad or noodles.
    • Heat oil in a cooking pan over medium heat. Take any amount of shallot that you need, add it to the pan, and lower the heat to medium-low. If using for marinades, quickly stir then remove from heat. If using for regular stir-fry, quickly stir then add your ingredients.
    • To rehydrate purple shallots, add equal part water or oil for 1 to 2 minutes. The shallots will bloom and taste similar to fresh shallots.

    Please note this product cooks quickly with the heat on. If using multiple herbs, prepare them separately as they have different cooking times.

    SIZE GUIDE

    1.06 oz of dehydrated purple shallot equals 5.29 oz of fresh purple shallot.

    TASTING NOTES

    Horseradish - Pistachio - Shiitake mushroom
