Russet apples.
I have liked the texture of Roxbury russet at times and at times found it
grainy. The graininess disappears when you cook it. I am in the process of
testing what russets do well here and which don't. My eating experiences
were in the chicago area where i liked Golden Russet, Roxbury, Hudson's
Golden Gem and Hoople's antique gold. Razor russet tastes pretty much like
Golden Delicious. Not surprising given it is a russeted sport of Golden
Delicious.
