How do ya like them apples?

[HopefullyYes]

I eat apples every day. Mainly in the bath. (but that's a whole other thread).

I love pink lady, gala and braeburn. Now the problem I'm having is that it's a lottery in whether its going to juicy, crisp and lovely or powdery, disappointing and tasteless.

A poster recommended (on another thread) braeburn for this time of year. So I bought two (not risking a 6 pack) and man oh man! Big, crisp and juicy. Gorgeous!

Can anyone else recommend a good apple for this time of year? I found some raspberry rippled flesh apples in morrisons last month but they were on a limited offer.

I love a Jazz. I had some called Envy a couple of weeks ago and they were fabulous, very crunchy and juicy.

Braeburn or Jazz apples.

The braeburn I got from morrisons were perfect 👌

I love a cox myself

"Snigger" me too "smirk"

I had some called Envy a couple of weeks ago and they were fabulous, very crunchy and juicy.

Where from please? 🍏

Cox's orange pippins, obv.

Sainsbury's have some gorgeous Cox's apples in, crisp, juicy and tart. I bought some other types but haven't tried them yet.

If anyone sees these anywhere please come back and tell me!

Jazz apples rule. All the best bits of a Braeburn with none of the down sides. Russets are like potatoes pretending to be apples, sorry russets.

Right now English Discovery apples are delicious. You can only get them for a few weeks. Waitrose had them the other day so I bought three bags and gave myself stomach ache.

HATE, lothe and detest powdery, wolly apples. Crisp and juicy only please.

Florries

Which is why I stopped buying bags. Take a bite throw it away x 6

English Discovery apples are delicious.

Jeber heard of these either, another to add.

never

That picture looks like a Discovery

Following the news about the needles in Australian fruit and the copy cat attacks, I currently like my apples thinly sliced!!

Discovery? Worcesters?

I find most apples are now too sweet with no real texture. I love Cox's orang pippens and russet but I had some from Tesco which were a variety I'd never heard of , sounded a bit Spanish, but they actually had some apple flavour rather than just sweetness

Spartan apple straight off the tree!

Kanzi apples are the business. Always crisp and crunchy and deliciously well balanced between sweet and sharp. Like a cross between Braeburn and a Pink Lady, if you catch them both on a really good day. Have only ever seen them in some Waitroses, though.

Russets here. Currently eating my way through a crateful from my tree. Try farmers markets to find them.

My favourite apple tree however is American Mother, but it is very old and rickety and hasn’t fruited this year. If this is the end for it, I shall have to replace it with another one. The apples are red, crisp and juicy - perfection. I’ve never seen them in shops though, sorry.

Envy from M and S but have a short season - think they are in stock now.

Morissons have Cripps Red at the moment. Lovely.

HopefullyYes my Envy came from Dunnes, which isn't much help to you unless you're in Dublin. Sorry.

Just wanted to second that those apples in the photo look like discoveries. They are the most amazing apples in the world, but only available for a short while at the middle/end of August through to late September. They're pretty much coming to the end of the season now so get in quick!

@treaclesoda Sainsburys has always been one of the better supermarkets for a variety of apples. Tesco is crap, even when they're in season here.
