Grelot Onions, Bunch

Grelot Onions Bunch are a bunch of Grelot onions – the small, silverskin-sized French pearl onions with a mild, sweet flavour. Grelot onions are a classic of French bistro cooking. As a result, they appear as a garnish in boeuf bourguignon, coq au vin and many classic braises. Furthermore, they are sweet enough to be glazed whole in butter and sugar for an elegant side dish in their own right. In particular, their uniform small size means they cook evenly and present beautifully on the plate.

About Grelot Onions Bunch

We source our vegetables and seasonal produce from specialist growers across Britain and Europe. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour, condition and provenance. As a result, the produce we deliver meets a standard well above what most supermarkets carry. Furthermore, we prioritise seasonal and heritage varieties over commodity produce. These varieties exist because growers selected them for taste, not yield or shelf life. However, they require more care and attention to grow. In particular, heritage and specialty vegetables often have shorter seasons and more demanding growing conditions. Additionally, we work with growers who share our commitment to quality. A short supply chain from grower to your door makes all the difference to freshness. That is why Grelot Onions Bunch from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Grelot Onions Bunch From Us

Cooking with genuinely seasonal and specialty produce transforms everyday dishes. In contrast to commodity vegetables, these varieties carry a depth of flavour that rewards simple treatment. As a result, the best preparation is often the simplest. Furthermore, freshness is everything with vegetables. We deliver direct from our suppliers so you cook with produce at its peak. However, even the finest vegetables need a little attention in the kitchen. In particular, most benefit from minimal cooking rather than long boiling. Moreover, good olive oil, sea salt and a little acidity — lemon juice or a splash of vinegar — bring out the best in almost everything. Additionally, the variety and provenance of what you cook matters. That is why we choose these ingredients so carefully.

How to Cook Grelot Onions Bunch

To get the very best from Grelot Onions Bunch:

• Blanch briefly to loosen the skins, then peel – the papery outer skin slips off easily after blanching.
• Glaze in butter, a little sugar and stock in a covered pan for 12 to 15 minutes until tender and glossy.
• Furthermore, grelot onions are the classic garnish for a boeuf bourguignon – braise alongside the beef for the final hour.
• Additionally, pickle in sweet red wine vinegar for a classic French condiment alongside cold meats and charcuterie.

Perfect Pairings

Grelot Onions Bunch pairs beautifully with:

• Good butter, sugar and thyme for the classic French glazing preparation
• Beef bourguignon, coq au vin or a classic French braise as the traditional partner
• A glass of Burgundy, Beaujolais or a robust Cotes du Rhone alongside
• Roasted chicken, duck or lamb as the main course

Storage: Keep refrigerated and use within a few days of delivery. Most vegetables are best stored unwashed in the fridge. However, root vegetables and onions keep well in a cool, dark, dry place. Furthermore, use as soon as possible after delivery for the finest flavour. Delivered fresh and ready to prepare.

However you prepare it, Grelot Onions Bunch brings a depth of flavour and quality to the table that commodity produce simply cannot match. Moreover, cooking with the finest seasonal produce is one of the great pleasures of the kitchen.
