In the spirit of the original post I will ad to the subject line and then
 
do a short rave about Prisma Shallots, from Fedco.   
 
My experience in both kitchen and garden had been shallots more like garlic
 
bulbs in shape and structure. Not Prisma, grown along with the other seed
 
onions these things are the size of apples, some single,  others with 2 and 3
 
sections
 
There is (as of Aug 17, 2010 ) a box of about 5 lbs left down cellar, brought
 
in there last November, after drying some in the greenhouse. They have
 
been in the section with the clothes lines, kept about 60F most of the winter,
 
a bit warmer this summer, and dry as dust.
