| Description: |
The Akane is best used for baking or desserts due to its slightly tart flavour and texture that holds up well when baked. The apple will hold its shape in pies as well. Akane is useful early season apple with an unusually good balance of sweet and sharp flavors. The flesh is firm rather than crisp, but with plenty of juice. Akane was developed in Japan in the 1930s, and represents an unusual marriage of the classic English early variety, Worcester Pearmain, and the high quality American heritage apple variety, Jonathan - and it is a marriage that works very successfully. |
Italian Prune Plums: These are the best plums for cooking, baking, canning and juicing. They are also very good for drying (prunes) and fresh eating. Because of the high sugar content these plums keep well. Early Italian plums have a dark blue/purple skin and a green/yellow flesh that turns burgundy when cooked! They are very sweet with a hint of prune flavour! ...known to be a good 'bowel' mover! from B.C. 8 plums make approx. 1/2lb the typical German "Zwetschke" (prune plum) $9.95/kg - $4.52/Ib |
