Allium cepa var aggregatum

This is one of the longest storing shallots (up to 1 year!) making it the most common commercially available variety, French Red is a classic "Jersey" style  half long shallot with a bright and spicy flavor and beautiful rosy pink skin with pale purple flesh. Shallots can be planted in fall for overwintering or in early spring. French Red grows 1-2" bulbs at a ratio of about 6 new bulbs per seed shallot that is planted. One pound of shallot seed will plant about 15' at 6" spacing. This variety is hardy zones 2-14 , drought and frost tolerant.

We have learned that the trick to easily peeling these beauties is to slice lengthwise and simply slip them out of their wrappers!
