Yellow apples

Yellow apples are a variety of apple characterized by their yellow skin, often with golden or light green tones. These fruits have a crisp texture and a sweet, slightly acidic flavor, making them ideal both for fresh consumption and for use in various recipes, from desserts to savory dishes.

The origin of yellow apples dates back to Europe, where varieties such as the Golden Delicious have been cultivated since the late 19th century. They are currently grown in many regions of the world with temperate climates, including Latin America and Spain.

In terms of their properties, yellow apples are rich in fiber, vitamins (especially vitamin C and some B complex vitamins), and antioxidants. Additionally, they are low in calories, making them a healthy option to include in one's diet.

In Hispanic America, yellow apples may also be known simply as golden apples or, in some places, as yellow apples without variation. Although the term "golden" is not always translated, these synonyms are the most common in the culinary context.

In cooking, yellow apples are versatile: they are used in pies, compotes, salads, sauces, and as an accompaniment to meat dishes, providing a sweet and fresh touch.
