Ida Red apple - local

The Ida Red is generally considered to be both sweetly tart and juicy. This is an apple that is great for eating fresh but also makes for the perfect old-fashioned goodness of baked apples because the Ida Red will hold their shape while baking. In addition to being the perfect baking apples, this is an apple that would be an excellent choice for apple sauces, pies, and cakes. If you cook the Ida Reds with their skins on them, you can create a beautiful pink colored applesauce.
