(Apples, Sansa)
Sansa apples are a very delicious, sweet-tart early apple, and as with most
early apples they should be eaten right after harvest and refrigerated to
preserve their freshness. Their taste is similar to that of a Gala apple. Sansa
apples originated in 1969 when a Japanese researcher, Dr. Yoshio Yoshida, sent
pollen from the Akane variety to his colleague in New Zealand, Dr. Don McKenzie,
and asked him to use it to cross-pollinate Gala blossoms, which were not grown
in Japan, and Akane were not grown in New Zealand. The seeds that resulted from
the cross were returned to Japan, where the young trees were grown until they
produced fruit, but it wasn't until 1988 when they were first marketed. Now they
are grown in the United States. We purchased these apples from a farm store in
Columbia County, New York in 2015. We could not find any specific nutritional
information for sansa apples.

The
above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31):
'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every
tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the
earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that
has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all
that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
