Handling & Storage

Apples should feel firm to the touch and be free of bruises.

Place apples in a plastic bag and refrigerate in the crisper for up to a month.

Do not peel or slice an apple until ready to use or it will begin to brown. Dip slices into lemon juice to slow down the browning process.
