Jonathan apples
Jonathan apples are medium-sized apples known for their bright red skin, often with yellow or green undertones, crisp texture, and balanced sweet-tart flavor. Their flesh is juicy, firm, and aromatic, with a noticeable acidity that gives them a refreshing, slightly tangy taste. Jonathan apples become tender when cooked while still offering a rich apple flavor, making them especially versatile for both fresh eating and cooking. They work well in salads, pies, crisps, applesauce, baking, roasting, and other sweet or savory dishes.

Choosing
Choose Jonathan apples that feel firm, heavy for their size, and free from soft spots, deep bruising, cuts, or shriveled skin. Look for smooth skin with good color, although the amount of red, yellow, or green can vary. Avoid apples with signs of decay or significant softness. Firm Jonathan apples will generally have the best crisp texture and balanced sweet-tart flavor.
