The best cooking apples are Northern Spy, Rome Beauty, Granny Smith and Greening. Delicious apples are firm and fairly good in pies and puddings , but should be well laced with lemon juice to neutralize their bland quality. McIntosh and Cortland are good eating apples, but tend to become mushy when cooked. Macoun, a new Eastern variety, introduced by Cornell University, is a cross between McIntosh and Jersey Black specifically for both eating and cooking.
