Background history
Orin apple (Malus domestica; Orin apple) is a variety born in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. They are products of the Aomori Apple Research Station in Japan. They are the result of a cross between the golden apple "Golden Delicious" and the Indian apple "Indo" ( Golden apples are the parent variety not only of Orin, but also of various other apples such as Tsugaru and Jonagold. The Indian apple is Japan's first apple variety and was born in Aomori Prefecture). The Wanglin apple variety was improved around 1931, and the first fruits were produced in 1943. In 1952, it was named Wanglin, which means "King of Apples". Wanglin apples are the third most produced apple in Japan after Fuji and Tsugaru.
Although they are grown primarily in Japan, they are produced commercially in British Columbia, Canada, and on a smaller scale in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Although it is known as the pioneer variety of green apple, it has not been registered as a variety by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. Wang Lin’s mother, Golden Apple, was born in the United States and is a yellow-skinned apple variety.
description/flavor
Wanglin apples are medium to large in size, crisp and tender in texture, firmly wrapped in yellow-green peel and not easily bruised. This very delicious apple is sweet, juicy, aromatic and low in acid. Some say it has a hint of pineapple flavor, while others describe it as having a light pear flavor.
nutritional value
Wanglin apples are cholesterol-free and contain pectin, a beneficial dietary fiber. This fiber may actually help lower the body's cholesterol levels and is said to possibly help prevent heart attacks. Pectin also slows down glucose metabolism in diabetics. Apples contain potassium, which may reduce the chance of stroke, and contain trace amounts of boron, which is believed to strengthen bones and increase mental energy. Apples provide small amounts of vitamin A and vitamin C, and contain only trace amounts of sodium. An average-sized apple contains approximately 80 calories. Unpeeled apples provide the most nutrients. Eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day may reduce your risk of cancer. A recent study found that eating nine to 10 servings of fruits and vegetables per day, plus three servings of low-fat dairy products, can effectively lower blood pressure.
How to choose
The way to choose good Wanglin apples is to choose ones with a sense of weight. If it feels hard and heavy when you pick it up, it means it is full of pulp, which is a sign of freshness. Another great option is one that makes a clear sound when tapped with your finger. Medium sized balls are recommended, they taste better and last longer. If the peel is dark yellow-green with some green remaining at the bottom, it means the aroma is strong. If the apple weighs very little, you can tell that it has dried out, lost its moisture, and the flesh has become soft and tasteless.
Orin turns yellow when ripe. Taste preferences vary from person to person, so if you like sourness, dark green is recommended, and if you don't like sourness, dark yellow is recommended. Also, if you choose something with a stronger sweetness, it is recommended to choose something with fruity spots and rust.
