About Shallot Density

Shallots are denser and more aromatic than onions. When chopped, they pack more tightly due to their fine structure. A typical density of 0.70 g/ml means one cup weighs around 165 g. Finely minced shallots weigh slightly more per cup; coarse cuts weigh slightly less.

Cooking & Prep Tips

• Shallots have a sweeter, milder flavor compared to onions—excellent for raw dressings.
• Slice thinly for sautés; finely mince for sauces and vinaigrettes.
• To reduce sharpness, soak chopped shallots in cold water for 10 minutes.
• One medium shallot can replace 1/4 cup chopped onion in recipes.
