Green Apple Granny Smith Frozen Puree
France (Tarn-et-Garonne)
PRODUCT BENEFITS
- Granny Smith variety
- Apples with a tangy, juicy and fragrant character
- Firm flesh and fresh, crisp and tangy, thick bright green skin, shiny and smooth
- A bitter-sweet flavour with citrus notes and plant aromas
Ponthier specifically selected a Granny Smith apple grown at 400 metres altitude at the foot of Mont d’Or. The lower alpine soils, deep and fertile, provide alluvial and colluvial qualities ideal for growing fruit. Sensitive to heavy frost but not cold weather, apple trees need the winter but fear spring frosts. The very sunny climate of south-eastern France gives Granny Smith apples their tangy, juicy and fragrant character. You can recognise Granny Smith apples from Tarn-et-Garonne through their freshness: firm flesh, crisp and tangy, thick bright green skin, shiny and smooth with no dark marks. Ponthier puree marvellously recreates the fruit texture, its bitter-sweet flavour with citrus notes and plant aromas.
