I love Granny Smith apples. I used to buy them by the bagful, because one of my dogs liked them, too. Elliott would eat them whole, or, when I ate one, would sit patiently and wait for me to give him slices. Harriet’s not too keen on them, unfortunately, so I don’t buy them as often now. They were on sale, though, so I got a 3lb bag of them today. Even if I don’t eat them all before they’re past their prime, I can slice and dry them in the dehydrator. Or, who knows, maybe I’ll bake a pie?
Addendum: Teh Google says that the Granny Smith apple was not introduced to the US until 1972. I had no idea!
Alsotoo, I like them best sliced and sprinkled with a little bit of salt. It cuts the sourness very nicely. That’s how I learned to eat grapefruit and tomatoes, too.
