Hi All,

Okay, the stalks are dying on my first ruin of
shallots. Time to pick them.

Now the first dead stalk I pulled out produced
four beautiful shallots (they come in fours and
break apart at the root). I washed the dirt off
them, and put the to dry on a rack in the garage
that I dry my garlic on.

DISASTER !!! After two days, the garage stunk real bad.
The shallots had turned alcoholic.

What did I do wrong? And do the same instructions
apply when my potato onions are ready too?

Many thanks,
-T
