Ok, all, I’m looking for more info.
I opened the fridge vegetable drawer to pull out some shallots from the grocery store. One has clearly sprouted, at least an inch of more of beautiful green sprouts. Can I plant this in the fall and hope to get some shallots next spring? Just plant for the sprouts? Ideas and suggestions welcomed!
Throw it in the dirt, see what happens. Or mince and use the greens as a garnish (or as you would Chives) and chop up and use the Shallot now, if it’s not gone to mush.
Shallots don’t need refrigeration. They like 65 degrees and dry - usually a basket on the kitchen countertop is just fine. The humidity in the fridge is not their friend! Same goes for onions and garlic.
I store sweet and Vadalia and red onions and shallots/garlic in an open basket on a shelf in my pantry. Taters (sweet and baking) are stored that way too, in their own basket.
