A staple in Vietnamese cuisine, Vân Vân's Coastal Purple Shallot is grown in Phan Rang. The shallot has a delightful sweetness perfectly balanced by a sharp yet subtle spiciness. This results in its unique and harmonious flavor profile. The savory aroma brings a great depth of flavor and complexity to the complete dish. 

You can use Vietnamese coastal purple shallots in a variety of ways. Here are three of our favorite ways to use or rehydrate this classic Vietnamese herb.

• Use in place of fresh shallot. Sprinkle on salad or noodles.
• Heat oil in a cooking pan over medium heat. Take any amount of shallot that you need, add it to the pan, and lower the heat to medium-low. If using for marinades, quickly stir then remove from heat. If using for regular stir-fry, quickly stir then add your ingredients.
• To rehydrate purple shallots, add equal part water or oil for 1 to 2 minutes. The shallots will bloom and taste similar to fresh shallots.
