It's apple time again
Apple Time Today, as in colonial times, the apple is one of America’s favorite fruits. The versatile apple can lend appeal to a variety of main dishes, side dishes, salads, breads, desserts and beverages. It also makes a delightful lowcalorie snack or dessert when eaten out-of-hand. Apples are of value in the diet for several reasons. Not only do they contain small amounts of some important vitamins and minerals, they also provide dietary fiber which is necessary for normal functioning of the intestinal tract. Eaten raw after a meal, apples may also aid in removing food particles from the teeth. The large assortment of apples available at the retail market provides a variety for every need. You may want to become familiar with some of the most commonly available varieties and to try others that are specific to your locality. Some apple varieties are especially suited for a particular method of preparation. In general, apples that disintegrate when cooked are usually best for applesauce; those that keep their shape are best for baking whole. Tart apples are good for cooking; sweeter apples are good for eating raw, either out-of-hand or in salads. Know Your Apples Red Delicious have a market

Easily accessible at the intersection of 1-69 and the Indiana Toll Road near Angola, Pokagon State Park offers a legendary setting for an “Indian summer” experience. All activities will take place rain or shine, so those attending should pack appropriate outdoor clothing and accessories. Good hiking shoes are a must!

They are very juicy, slightly tart, firm, crisp and fragrant and can be used for eating raw, general cooking and baking whole. Apple Storage Storing of apples is a concern of many consumers. Only firm, good quality apples should be stored for later use. Any apples with bruises or injured areas should be used immediately. As mature apples ripen they will show varying degrees of firmness from hard, when freshly harvested, to soft, when they have become overripe. Loss of quality will occur in overripe apples. \ If apples are hard or firm, store them in a cool place, 60 degrees to 70 degrees Fahrenheit, to ripen. Apples which ‘ yield slightly to pressure and which have lost their starchy flavor are ripe. Refrigerate ripe apples in the humidifier compartment or in a moisture-resistant container, such as a polyethylene bag. Cut a few scattered small holes in the bag to permit ventilation. For optimum quality it is recommended that apples stored in the refrigerator be used within a few weeks. Don’t store whole apples in the freezer as the freezing will lower their quality.
