The big main bed has had all the garlic harvested, there remains #onions, #leeks, #shallots & other heirloom #tomatoes. Some “Day of the Dead” #marigolds have returned! My #zinnias, #pumpkins and #squash have all burst through the woodchip layer. Soon this whole #garden bed will be criss-crossed by vines.

I put butter in a skillet, then sugar, then balsamic vinegar, rosemary & thyme, and then I added the shallots and some salt, stirred till each shallot was coated with sweet smelling goo and put the skillet in the oven for forty minutes at 200°C/400°F.
The shallots are still in the freezer, on a big tray, so they can freeze in a proper Greta Garbo fashion.
I tasted one small shallot: utterly & preposterously divine. H

How to Grow Shallots
https://www.thespruce.com/growing-shallots-in-the-vegetable-garden-1403464
Crop failure last year in Europe has led to a severe shortage of shallot sets here. I have some sets saved from last year and will add to these by planting supermarket shallots which are still available (imported from Asia). Books often say that supermarket shallots are heat treated to stop them sprouting, but I have found this to be untrue.

Raclette-Gruyère Mac and Cheese with Pickled Shallots 🍷
Inspired by älplermagronen, #Alpine farmers' #macaroni, this Swiss twist on a Thanksgiving classic gets rich flavor from #Gruyère and a lush creaminess from #Raclette. Traditional versions of this dish are served with applesauce; as a nod to that flavor play, we've added some #shallots that are quickly pickled in apple cider vinegar to balance the cheesy richness.

It was my turn again to cook for 20 people at the co-op! Tonight, a whole menu of new experiments, including caramelized whole shallots and tofu that boil for a long time in a sugar vegetable broth, avocado soup that also contains onions, celery, rice, garlic and a bunch of other stuff; and vegan sweet dinner rolls (i.e. they literally have sugar in them), w/soy milk & plant margarine.

@MFG ours too. Some eschalote grise to go in as soon as we’ve built the next #RaisedBed down at the #Allotment. Really like eschalote grise: they are grown & cooked just like #shallots (but they are a different plant botanically). They have a much richer flavour.
James Wong suggests planting at the December solstice & harvesting at the July one. That’s what we did last year, & it worked well. But I don’t suppose it will do any harm if we get them planted earlier this time!

So that’s our first #nodig #allotment bed planted with four kinds of #garlic (from the right: elephant, maddock, carcosonne and provence). Broad beans around the edges not to waste growing space and to fix nitrogen. Then some #mulch on top & leave to grow.
Going to have to make a second bed for the eschalote grise (fancy #shallots, really recommend). But those can go in as late as at the solstice here in #Oxfordshire — that’s what we did last year.

Belated prepping of a #RaisedBed to plant out #alliums. Also pictured are raspberry canes, still fruiting!

Here is this #year's #crop so far of #garlic (and a few #onions or #shallots). It should keep us going for many months. We only used #organic #fertilizer (well rotted #HorseManure) and it seems to have paid off dividends.
