on't ever let anyone tell
you that an apple is an ap-
ple is an apple and that
they all taste pretty much
the same. Of the 7,000 varieties
of apples grown in the United
States today only 18 or so vari-
eties make it to the grocery for
public consumption. From
the tart Granny Smith to
the super sweet Red Deli-
cious each variety has de-
voted fans.
My personal favorite
is the relatively new va-
riety, the Mutzu Ap-
ple. It's a cross
between the Gold-
en Delicious and
the Granny Smith.
Unlike most vari-
eties which are
specifically cooking
apples or eating ap-
ples, the Mutzu is
both a great cooking
and eating apple.
Grown primarily in
Michigan it's devel-
oping quite a loyal
following among ap-
ple fans.
Fall is the best
time to get ap-
ples right off
the trees and
into your
pies, cakes or
in the most dire
of apple emer-
gencies, right into your mouth.
While it is possible to get apples
all year round due to the scien-
tific advances in storing and
ripening procedures, by May or
June the only resemblance be-
tween a "real" apple and what's
for sale in your produce section
is that they're both red and have
seeds.
NOTE: 3 medium apples
equal 1 pound or 3 cups when
sliced or chopped
