CrispGlo apples have just arrived!  A cross between the Topaz and Golden Delicious varieties, CrispGlo apples are denses and crunchy. Due to their beautiful color and resistance to browning, CrispGlo’s are a wonderful salad apple. 

Here’s a recipe to get you started with this wonderful fruit:

Prosciutto with Apple Salad
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 pound thinly sliced prosciutto di Parma
  • 1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and cored
  • 2 CrispGlo apples, peeled and cored
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 head radicchio, leaves detached (try Belgian Endive)
  • Salt and pepper
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano, for shaving
Directions:
Place the prosciutto on a large platter. Julienne all apples and place in a mixing bowl. Add the poppy seeds, olive oil, vinegar and radicchio. Stir to coat, then add salt and pepper to taste. 
Arrange the salad in the center of the plate and shave delicate curls of Parmigiano-Reggiano over the salad.
