Bramley’s Seedling is the definitive English “cooker” – an apple variety used mainly for cooking purposes. Bramley is well-known for its rich sharp acidity – it has one of the highest acid contents of any apple variety. As a result it cooks down to a stiff but light apple puree, a key requirement for English apple cookery, with an excellent sharp flavour.
The copious juice makes Bramley’s Seedling valuable for juicing as well, and the juice can also be used in cider production.
The apples ripen fairly late in the season, and store well.
