Criterion apples

Criterion is an American apple variety that’s been discovered near Parker, Washington. The apples are a cross between Red Delicious, Yellow Delicious, and Winter Banana, and they’ve been introduced to the market in 1973. The texture of the flesh is firm, juicy, and crisp.

The aromas are pleasant, while the flavors are mild, sweet, and slightly tart. These apples are harvested in October and they keep for a few months after they’ve been picked. It’s recommended to use Criterions as all-purpose apples - in baking, cooking, and drying.
