I considered pulling the French Gray Griselle shallots today, but didn't. Now we're having a horrific storm with flooding rain, house-shaking thunder, and high winds, so they will need to stay a bit longer.

And I had always read/been told that garlic should have at least five or six green leaves left in order to have enough layers on the heads for long time storage. Is that not true?
