Starting the shallots in cold oil guarantees that every ring will be perfectly crisp and golden brown, with nothing burnt or oil-drowned.

Steps:
- Set a fine-mesh strainer over a medium heatproof bowl. Thinly slice shallots crosswise into rings on a mandoline (they should be about the thickness of a dime).
- Place shallots in a medium saucepan and pour in oil to submerge. Set over medium-low heat and cook, stirring often with a fork to encourage rings to separate, until shallots are golden brown, 20-25 minutes. (Keep an eye on them; once they start to brown they'll darken fast).
- Pour shallots into strainer to drain, then transfer to paper towels. Season with salt and let cool. Reserve shallot oil for another use.
- Do Ahead: Shallots can be fried 5 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
