Uses:

Braeburn Apples are a cross between a Granny Smith and Lady Hamilton. The fruit has a red vertical streaky exterior, with a yellow-green to creamy yellow flesh. They have a very crisp texture but deliver a juicy sweet and tangy flavor. Apples have many health benefits, providing a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C with no saturated fat, cholesterol, or sodium. Now they are even better because "Melissa's Certified Organic Produce is free of artificial or synthetic fertilizers and full of unforgettable, great tasting flavor. Our farmers use traditional earth-friendly farming methods inspected by a nationally recognized agency to verify organic authenticity. Melissa's Organic Produce, a choice made closer to nature." The Braeburn is great for snacks, sauces, salads, and baking with your favorite apple recipes.

Selection, Storage & Handling:

Melissa’s Organic Braeburn Apples are hand-selected for excellent quality. Choose firm, smooth apples and avoid bruising. Refrigerate unwashed apples in a perforated plastic bag for up to four months. Apples kept out of refrigeration tend to become mealy. Organic produce should not be stacked with non-organic produce.
