Jonagold Large are the kings of the apple section
- Grangar 9y agoI strongly agree, strange to see they're not mentioned in the article.
- washadjeffmad 9y agoI buy a bushel of Jonagolds and two or three others each year (varieties depend on crop), and they're great for cooking or eating. I make around three gallons of apple butter and a gallon or two of spiced cider total, and I still have enough for at least two five pound pies and some for eating. Nice, firm apples that don't break down too readily when cooked and with a pleasant tartness. I buy honeycrisps by the peck for eating, and I've tried cooking with mutsus, detroit reds, and september wonders, and few others, but jonathans and jonagolds have proven themselves staple worthy in my kitchen.
