How to choose the right apple



Since there are over 2,000 varieties of apples, here is a small guide how to choose those that hold their shape, those that froth and those that are best eaten as they are or paired with cheese.



The frothing apples ( for mousse and pies)
  • Golden Reinette ( so far my favorite )
  • Golden Noble
  • Charlotte
  • Newton Wonder
  • Lord Derby
Apples that will keep their shape (for an open tart)

  • Charles Ross
  • James Grieve
  • Gravenstein
  • Granny Smith
  • Braeburn
  • Elstar
  • Honey Crisp
  • Jonathan
  • Red Rome
An apple for cheese

  • Cox
  • Jupiter
  • Suntan
  • Pink Lady
An eating apple (best eaten raw, in salads, dessert apple)

  • Fuji
  • Gala
  • Granny Smith
  • Jonagold
  • Jonathan
