I was checking the tip and trick section and found that I am yet to share this tip to peel shallots easily. My Mother-in-law taught me an easy tip to peel them without much difficulty. So today's post is on "How to peel shallots [small onion / sambar onion] easily!!"
Small Onions are tasty but they are difficult to peel as sometimes, the thin peel just stick to it and difficult to remove.
Soaking the shallots.
If you need them in the morning, soak them overnight in water. Else if you have forgotten to do so, just leave them for 30 minutes and you can peel them without difficulty and also save you from burning eyes. The more you soak, more easy to peel. I prefer overnight soaking.
Shallots can be added to Sambar, subzis, Chutney, Chammandhi (a form of thick chutney to accompany the rice as well) etc.
Enjoy cooking with shallots!
