Definition: In season from November through May, the Rome Beauty apple has a deep red skin with some yellow speckling. The off-white flesh ranges from tender to mealy, its flavor from mildly tart to sweet and bland. It holds it shape well when cooked and for that reason is often the fruit of choice for baked apples or for other cooked dishes. See also apple.
