Add a gourmet touch to your kitchen with our Zebrune Shallot seeds. This unique heirloom, also known as a "banana" shallot, is prized by chefs for its elongated shape that makes for easy peeling and slicing. The flavor is a wonderfully complex and sweet, with a milder, more delicate taste than a typical onion.
