Reineta Apple: Unveiling the Secrets of This Delicious Fruit

The Reineta apple is a fruit with a greenish-brown color, adorned with small dark spots. It has a rounded and somewhat flattened shape, with a rather large size. Its skin is thin and smooth or slightly rough. The pulp is white, firm, juicy, crisp, and acidic. Its taste is both sweet and sour, providing a refreshing sensation. The Reineta apple is a variety that originates from France, first described in the 16th century. It is believed to be the result of a cross between wild apples with red pulp and high-quality commercial varieties. Its name comes from its supposed status as the "queen of apples" or its greenish color resembling that of frogs.
