Apples, Opalescent
About Opalescent Apples:
Opalescent Apples are described as an American antique gem that was developed around 1880, and which still thrills the taste buds with its tart sweet tasting crispness. When we saw bags of them at a farm store in 2010, we thought they were a new variety, because we didn’t remember ever seeing them before. We’re very happy we bought them, because they’re a great tasting apple. They’re also a good baking apple with a wonderful aroma. Opalescent apples don’t bruise easily, they store well, and they’re one of the few early apples that are hard and juicy when fully ripe. We could not find any specific nutritional information for opalescent apples, so we included the nutritional chart for apples in general.
