Product Description

Blue Jay Oriental Foods is a wholesale supplier and exporter of premium-quality Fresh Shallots from Thailand. Thai shallots are valued for their distinctive aroma, mildly sweet flavour, and characteristic pungency, making them an essential ingredient in Thai and Southeast Asian cuisine.

Fresh Shallots are widely used in curry pastes, soups, salads, stir-fries, sauces, marinades, dipping sauces, and traditional seasoning blends. They can be used fresh, sliced, chopped, fried, roasted, or processed for food manufacturing.

Our export-quality shallots are carefully selected and sorted to help ensure consistent quality, suitable maturity, and good condition during storage and international transportation.

Blue Jay Oriental Foods supplies Thai Shallots wholesale to importers, Asian food wholesalers, distributors, supermarkets, food manufacturers, restaurants, and catering suppliers worldwide.
