Sweet crisp Fuji Apples are fantastic this week. Originally from Japan they are the sweetest apple making them a popular pick. Fuji’s are a good source of dietary fibre, vitamin C and are high in anti-oxidants.
HOW TO PICK
Choose firm, even-coloured apples. The flesh of the apple should not give way to finger pressure.
HOW TO STORE
Store apples away from direct sunlight, preferably in the fridge. Place them in a plastic bag to help keep them juicy and firm. If you prefer eating apples at room temperature, simply remove a few from the fridge each day. Don't store apples with pears or avocados as they produce a natural gas that speeds the ripening of those fruits.
