Cortland Apples, Organic - 454g / 1lb

454g = ~3 apples

Cortland apples are a dark cherry red apple blushes with yellow. A purple blush patch usually indicates that the apple has been sun-ripened on the tree. They have a mildly sweet taste and a texture ranging from soft to crisp. This apple is excellent for cutting as the flesh is slow to go brown from air exposure. To maintain the crispness of the flesh these apples need to be stored in a cool dry place. 

For eating, this apple is best enjoyed in lunches, as snacks, or on fruit plates soon after harvest. As the flesh becomes softer, these apples are excellent for baking and making sauces, making Cortland known as one of the apples favoured for baking.
