APPLES
in appealing ways

Choose your favorite apple—a fragrant Winesap, a juicy Stayman, a tart Northern Spy ... each variety has its own appeal. And the versatile apple can lend flavor to your main course, salad, bread, or dessert.

An apple, eaten raw, makes a pleasant, low-calorie snack or dessert. A medium-size apple contains only 70 calories.

Like other fruits, apples contain some vitamins and minerals. Bottled or canned apple juice may be fortified with vitamin C.

In this publication, you’ll find useful facts about apples, recipes for many of your favorite apple dishes, and some new or unusual ways of preparing and serving apples.
