T ,is popular fruit is handled with care from tree to store to pro- vide the consumer with an at- tractive, flavorful product. pack- ers sort and grade their owe apples. The top grade apples, labelled Canada Extra Fancy, are individually selected and pa- cked by count into trays, cartons or boxes. The grade most com- monly available, Canada Fancy, is found ,in supermarkets in poly - bags of 3, 5 and 10 pounds and are often named'as to vari- ety. k his grade implies apples which - e mature, reasonably well for d and colored, sound, and with a hirnum diameter of 2 1/4 inches. There may be con- sidera4 size variation in a hag of appleS and if there are several large ones the opens seem smaller by comparison. In some areas the shopper may find Canada Commercial, or Canada Cee, grade displayed. Such ap- ples lack time degree of coloring demanded for Canada Fancy and have considerable damage either In the form of bruises, breaks in skin, etc. When the purchaser desires an apple for cooking as well as eating, the.<0.1 purpose appleS,, such as McIntosh, Cort- land and Spy are all very good. Apples should be ke,ot cold to preserve their fteshness and -crispness. In today's houses or apartments this usually means refrigerator storage. Unless there is adequate cold room stor- age of near optimum 32 deg.F., it is a good idea to buy apples in small quantities that can be adequately stored. Many fresh appl es find their way into pies, the most popular way of using them. Home econo- mists suggest that the apple: pas- try ' combination be used in. another form, such as old- fashioned , 'Apple Dumplings'. Each square of pastry enclosed a whole, peeled and cored apple The dumplings are served Warm with cream or 'Apple Butter- scotch Sauce' made with apple juice. Another combination is 'Apple Flan'. In grandmother's time a 4'flan' was a pastry, si- milar to a tart, filled with a custard or fruit mixture. It was baked in a flan ring then filled with the desired filling. Today's version of .this recipe is made with a baked pie shell and-slices of cooked apple. T, A TASTE OF HONEY IN WINTER VEGETABLES The unique, delicious flavor of honey can b enjoyed in many ways.
