About

Let’s talk about the shallot. It’s part of the allium family, so it’s in the same family as leeks, garlic, and other onions. Shallots are typically sweeter and more subtly flavored than other onions. Shallots are my favorite onions, and this is my favorite thing to make with them.

Method

Heat a medium-size skillet over medium-high heat, then spray the skillet with a light coating of avocado oil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the shallots to the skillet. Sauté for about 2 minutes until translucent. Add the vinegar and dark brown sugar. Cook, stirring often, until your mixture is a dark golden brown with a smooth consistency, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove
