Do you like to cut apples at home and want to have the most beautiful? Right now, you can choose them and keep them so that they look perfect.
The harvest of autumn apple varieties is in full swing. Whoever has the apple trees makes sure the fruit gets out of the tree in time. Some of them are ready to eat right away, but a lot of them need somewhere to mature in peace. Properly juicy and sweet will be apples for up to a few weeks or months. Of course, a brick cellar that is disinfected, exuberated and has a temperature of 2 to 6 °C is best suited for storage. Apples are usually carefully put in hazelnuts in one to two layers, so that it can be well checked that they do not spoil. If you don't have a cellar, for example, you can use a garage, an un heated corridor, and even a deep well to run apples into. But such treatment is only suitable for ordinary food.
Christmas beauties
If you like beautifully polished perfect apples on the Christmas table and don't want to buy them expensively in stores in December, you have the chance to get them from the family crop. Carefully choose in the variety that will be the most enjoyable around December, a few of the most beautiful fruits. Then, following the pattern of our grandmothers, carefully wrap them in silk paper. They are delicate to taps and the paper protects them from bruising, better retains moisture and a protective layer on the skin. If you want to be precise, then put them in hard paper and store in a box so that they do not touch. This will give them the care you see in more expensive vegetables for foreign apples of selective quality. Every once in a while, check the apples for spoils.
Our tip -Before use in the Christmas arrangement, nicely clean each apple with a soft cloth.
