Conversation about a shallot
Sunday, April 19th, 2009 | Best Of, Food & Drink, Home Life |
WIFE: Have you seen my shallot?
ME: Nope.
WIFE: It was next to the sink.
ME: Yeah?
WIFE: It was brown. It looked like an onion.
ME: That was a shallot?
WIFE: Yes.
ME: I thought shallots looked like green onions.
WIFE: This was brown.
ME: Oh. I didn’t know that was a shallot.
WIFE: What did you do with it?
ME: Uh, I threw it away.
WIFE: Les!
ME: I thought it was an old rotten onion.
Turns out there are two kids of shallots, though what I was thinking of is usually called scallions. Oops.
