Season calendar
The seasonal calendar for red apples in Spain generally follows this pattern:
- Winter (January to March): During these months, red apples are usually available, but they mainly come from storage since the harvest takes place in the fall months.
- Spring (April to June): In the spring, apples are still available thanks to storage. It is the final period in which the previous year's apples are still in good condition.
- Summer (July to September): At the end of summer, the new harvest season begins. At the end of August and September, the first varieties of red apples begin to be ready for harvest.
- Autumn (October to December): This is the peak of the apple season in Spain. Red apple varieties are harvested in abundance and are at their peak of freshness and flavor.
Selection tips
When selecting red apples, there are several things you can consider to ensure you choose the best ones. Here are some tips:
- Visual appearance: Look for apples that have smooth, shiny skin. Avoid those that have bumps, cuts or bruises. A bright, uniform color is generally a good sign of freshness and quality.
- Firmness: Press the apple lightly with your fingers. It should feel firm and not give way under gentle pressure. Apples that are too soft or have soft spots may be overcooked.
- Weight: A good quality apple usually has a satisfactory weight for its size. If it feels unusually light, it could have lost its moisture and not be in the best condition.
- Aroma: Fresh, ripe apples often give off a pleasant, fruity aroma. If there is no aroma or it smells like something other than fruit, it is best to avoid it.
- Stem and base: The stem should be intact and the base of the apple should not be sunken or wrinkled, as this may indicate over-ripening or improper storage.
Conservation
Here are some tips to keep your apples fresher for longer:
- Refrigeration: Store red apples in the fruit drawer of your refrigerator; This slows down their ripening and keeps them fresh for longer.
- Avoid Excessive Moisture: Keep apples in a perforated bag or wrapped in paper to prevent moisture buildup, which can cause rot.
- Separation from Other Fruits: Store them away from other fruits and vegetables, since apples emit ethylene, a gas that accelerates the ripening of nearby produce.
