Today was my mom's birthday, and it was sad for me looking at some of those recipes with her own hand-writing. sigh ...... I missed her a lot today. She was the best cook ever. One time she had a party for her friends, house warming, and she made so many appetizers, everyone was full and couldn't eat the dinner. lol

I like shallots, do you mean the green ones? I'm not sure if that you call shallots and what we call shallots is the same thing - they look like these:

They taste a bit less intense than onion. If you've had chives or leeks, they are kind of like that. Oniony but planty as well (those are technical terms, by the way) - lol

Happy birthday to your Mom. I'm like that with my Grandma's recipes. They are so special because they are in her handwriting. Hugs to you - I miss my Grandma too.
