Gravenstein apple

[ GRA-vuhn-steen ]

This crisp, juicy, sweetly tart APPLE has a beautiful green skin streaked with red. It's in season from August to late September and available mainly on the West Coast. Although the Gravenstein is considered an all-purpose APPLE and makes delicious pies and APPLEsauce, it does not do well when baked whole. See also APPLE.
