The Opal Apple

The Opal Apple is one of my favorite apples. In addition to their great taste, their natural slow oxidation rate means they don’t brown after biting into it. I was chomping on this apple at work, when things got really busy and it was left out for three hours! I learned that Opals are a non-GMO cross between a Golden Delicious and Topaz. They are grown exclusively in the United States by Broetje Orchards in Washington. They're kinda pricey, but I think it's worth picking up a couple.
