York Imperial apple
A medium to large
APPLE with firm flesh that's tartly sweet. The York Imperial's skin is red with yellowish streaks and the flesh is off-white. It's an excellent cooking
APPLE and is a favorite for baked
APPLEs because it keeps its shape during cooking. This
APPLE is available October through April. See also
