-
Keep the root end intact while trimming the stem end.
-
Peel the shallot.
-
To mince: lay the shallot flat on the cutting board. Make a series of vertical slices, angling the knife slightly toward the center as you go around to create even pieces. Then, cut across the slices.
-
To slice/ring: cut the shallot crosswise (orbitally) for ring-like pieces, or slice pole-to-pole for slivers.
