When you’re out picking apples, choose firm and unbruised fruit, and remember to twist the apple off and up from the branch. Whether you get your apples from the tree or your local grocer, store them in a cool, dark spot– you can put them in your fridge, but your basement is probably a perfect spot, too. Now get to work on one (or all) of these recipes, and enjoy apple season!
