However, the good news is that heirloom apples are becoming popular all over again, and the Jonathan apple is once again becoming a fall favorite. Did you know that the Jonathan apple is actually a parent to many varieties of apples, including; Jonamac, Jonafree, and Jonagold? The Jonathan apple is a medium size apple, that has a thin red skin, with a sweet taste that can often have a tart tang to it.
The Jonathan apple is a wonderful apple for fresh eating but also makes for a great freezing as well as cooking apple. Because the flesh of the apple may break down a bit during cooking, you can pair the Jonathan with other more dense apples such as the Granny Smith, or Fuji for your pie fillings. The Jonathan apple is also a very juicy apple, making this variety of apple the perfect choice for juice and cider.
If you plan on storing the Jonathan apple, you can typically store it for about months in the refrigerator.

There is not very many apples grown in Texas.
Too hot. They need a cold winter. My only criticism is that while acidity and sweetness were well balanced and the texture was great, it did not have the complexity of flavor which some apples do.
Still, I'm already looking forward to this season's harvest. Even Oprah, our chihuahua, loves them. Cool, crisp, and not too tart. So good I am trying to grow them myself. The local Wilson's Orchards has just a few Cortland trees so we call frequently in the fall so we can pick when Cortlands are at their peak.
So we have to pick a lot so some can survive the wife to make it to mellow. The texture is mushy and I bought these while in season in Michigan.
A waste of money. Even the Honeycrisp "seconds" are better than these. We had an apple farm nearby where we could buy this variety in Wisconsin, but it is very hard to find here in Missouri. Most supermarkets never carry it in our area, although a few farms have a limited supply. Its semi-sweet, juicy, flavorful flesh and versatility has made it my favorite apple for many years. It is great for eating, and for pies, but especially my favorite, for applesauce.
I have recently sampled about 15 different varieties of apple in the quest to find the perfect apple for me, but Cortland remains unmatched in flavor and versatility.
It is the most appley apple! If I had to complain about Cortland, it would be two things. First, the skin is relatively tough and tastes "green" to me. So I prefer getting rid of the peels, though it's not terrible, just preference maybe. And the other thing is that before too long a month or two , the flesh becomes mealy and lifeless, even in cold storage. But eat them fresh, or make pies and sauce with them after they age, and it won't matter in the slightest.
Cortland is very hardy and grows extremely well here in Western, NY. It ripens in mid-September and is sweeter than its cousin, the Macintosh. You can do everything with this apple from fresh eating, pies, cider, sauce, etc. Another advantage is that the flesh does not brown quickly or hardly at all after you slice it. I like it best during the first pickings when the apple is still a little green and has a bit more tart flavor. I don't pay enough attention to know where and when exactly the best Cortland can be had, but I used to work at a supermarket and sometimes we'd get these giant Cortland apples that were the most delicious apples I've ever tasted.
Cortland apples also make great pies, but you have to take care to cook them well enough since they tend to require more time than a traditional Macintosh apple.
A really nice apple. Pretty good for pies, too,although not as good as Northern Spy. Cow's Milk. My local Grocery Store has began carrying these Cortland apples, quite recently--and, since I'm currently Ill, and unable to go shopping, I'm taking advantage of their ishop online Feature. This will essentially keep me from being able to feel, smell, and judge the fruit on my own. I'd very much appreciate a quick Answer. Cordially, Clarisse L.
