Does anybody have a tips on how to peel shallots?
I've never tried this myself, but I've heard that if you blanch them for 30 seconds, the skins will peel right off.
Tips for peeling, mincing or chopping:
• Use a paring knife to remove the skin.
• Slice off a thin disk from one of the sides, then set the shallot down on the cutting board, using the now-flat side as a base.
• Cut the shallot horizontally, leaving the root intact. Then cut the slices crosswise.

Grow your nails long, and pick at them. Just like an ordinary onion but fiddlier.
