INGREDIENTS:
3 pounds small shallots or pearl onions 2 cups white vinegar 2 cups water
6 tablespoons sugar 2 teaspoons crumbled dried rosemary 2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon Tabasco pepper sauce



1 Drop the shallots into a large pot of boiling water and cook for 1 minute. Drain and rinse with cold water. Cut off the roots, slip off the skins, and set aside.
2 In a large saucepan, combine the remaining ingredients and simmer for 3 minutes. Add the shallots and simmer for 15 minutes, until tender-crisp. Cool them slightly, then cover and refrigerate. Allow the shallots to stand for 2 to 3 days to blend flavors. They may be kept refrigerated in sealed containers for several weeks. Serve the shallots at room temperature.
