CHOOSING FRESH APPLES: Whenever you're shopping for apples, look for hard, fresh- smelling fruit with a full aroma and a smooth, tight skin. Good-tasting apples aren't necessarily pretty--some of the best varieties aren't--but they should be free of bruises and blemishes. Remember that when an apple ripens, flesh softens, sweetness intensifies, acidity drops, and color and aroma increase. Once you get them home, refrigerate apples and keep them away from strong-smelling foods, as apples easily absorb odors. Discard any rotting apples; they emit gases that are damaging to other apples, fruits, and vegetables.
Be who you are and say what you feel,because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. ~Angelique~ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
