Yellow to yellow-green with juicy and crisp flesh, this apple variety is a tastier and more versatile cousin of the Red Delicious. More mature apples will have a sweeter flavor. A good, all-around apple (and excellent as a base for cider), the Golden Delicious does tend to lose some flavor, but keeps its shape, when cooked. They’re found fresh from October through April and are grown extensively around the world.
