Still Life With Shallots

If you haven't already, you will soon be receiving shallots.
These bulbs will need to cure in order to store well.
Tie a handful of shallots around their necks and hang them somewhere dry, OUT of the sun, and well ventillated.
Once cured, the bulbs will keep until next spring.

We will be hanging some here if you need an example.

The garlic will need similar care once we harvest it in early August.
However, garlic does not keep as well as shallots
More on that later.
