In this picturesque orchard, spring heralds the blossoming of apple trees. As the chill in the air starts to fade, delicate apple blossoms unfurl, releasing a sweet fragrance that permeates the countryside. This marks the beginning of a process that culminates in the harvest of one of the world's most beloved fruits. Known for their crisp texture and sweet-tart flavour, apples belong to the Rosaceae family. These fruits come in a variety of colours, from vibrant reds to golden yellows and bright greens. Each type boasts its unique flavour profile, from the tangy Granny Smith to the sweetness of Fuji. These fruits are rich in dietary fibre, antioxidants and essential vitamins like vitamin C and vitamin K, promoting overall health and well-being. Whether you like them fresh, baked in your favourite desserts or pressed into cider, apples are a classic culinary delight.
