Along with the honey-treated apples, I stored the salt-treated apples in the fridge overnight, and the bagged slices were still perfectly crisp and intact. (The plated slices had shriveled a bit, just like the honey apples.) This is my personal favorite method for preventing apple browning, and the one I\u2019ll be using in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the vein of healthier eating, apples are kind of a holy grail.
