Description

Red apples are the face of the fruit in pop culture and the world at large: when you think of an apple, you think of the Red variety. These apples are identified by their shiny, bright red skin, while some may have blush or tanning along the crown. Minor resetting around the stem may be apparent. Your average Full Apple will be available from September-January out of Washington, while a Controlled Atmosphere (CA) product will be shipped to balance out the shipping season.

How to Store

Storage

– Store immediately in the coldest part of the walk-in cooler (lower shelf and farthest away from the entry door).

– This fruit is very susceptible to damage from the heat of the kitchen. Warm temperatures will cause the texture of the flesh to be mealy and soft.

– Store exposed product away from drafts from the cooler fan. Always keep in the original cartons or the original bags. Exposed fruits will shrivel and rapidly dehydrate.

– Do not stack product on top of the cases or cause the apples to be crushed.

– Remove any fruits with decay, damage or those that begin to mold immediately.

Handling

– Follow good rotation practices, first shipments received should be used first.

– Fresh apples have an expected shelf life of 6-7 days. Plan to rotate frequently to maintain maximum quality.

Preparation

– Prepare as needed. Try not to use the product from the previous day.

– Avoid placing apples on non-sanitized kitchen counter tops to help prevent the potential for cross contamination.

– Always limit the time the product is out of refrigeration.

– Give apples a quick cold water rinse in a sanitary colander and drain well immediately prior to usage.
