Which method has the least waste and is easiest for peeling shallots? Is there a better way than these?
1) Tip the shallot, crush like a garlic clove (caution: the center rings of the shallot can shoot 5 feet across your kitchen, even with a gentle pressure!), remove root end, and peel?
2) Drop shallots in boiling water for 30 seconds, then shock in ice water and peel?
