Griselle shallot sets

Griselle is an authentic hibernate variety of French origin, to be planted in the fall between October and December. Griselle is early and produces pear-shaped shallots with strong, grey-coloured skin. The variety can be grown on any soil type and is suitable for short-term storage into winter.

Griselle (Allium oschaninii) is called 'the one and only shallot'. The long bulb species originally grew wild in Central Asia. This shallot is a chefs dream and is known for an extremely delicate taste. It is a bit milder than a regular onion. The shallots are healthy and contain more vitamin C than regular onions. Griselle is also rich in calcium, axioxidants and vitamins A, B & E.

But not only that, Griselle is also a farmers dream. Griselle is an undemanding crop and it provides good yields. But keep in mind: French Greys are a seasonal treat. If you want a storage staple, then choose Dutch shallots.

You can order a minimum of 500 kg Griselle shallot sets.
