Cooking Tips
Don't peel pippins if you want to add texture and nutrients to your dishes.
Their tartness balances the sweetness in pies and crumbles beautifully.
Try them thinly sliced in a fall salad with walnuts and blue cheese for a flavor contrast.

Common Mistakes
Expecting a sweet, mild apple flavor – pippins are intentionally tart.
Over-relying on them for raw snacking if you prefer sweeter varieties, unless you enjoy a sharp taste.
