A name in Germany and Austria for White Transparent, a variety of Russian, yellow dual-purpose apple which appeared in Europe in the early 19th Century and reached the United States by 1870. The flavour is sharp and cooks to a cream purée. Not much loved in England. This very early-season apple is harvested from late July and has poor storage properties.
