🛍 Product Information：
Story® Apple (also known as Story® Inored®) is a modern French-bred apple variety developed by INRA (French National Institute for Agricultural Research) in collaboration with NOVADI, with Pinova as a key parent. Introduced commercially in the 2000s, it stands out for its strong resistance to apple scab (Venturia inaequalis), making it highly suitable for organic and low-input growing systems. The fruit is medium to large, round to slightly flattened in shape, with a striking deep red to burgundy skin that is smooth, glossy, and heavily blushed—often achieving near-full coverage for excellent market appeal. The flesh is creamy white to ivory, occasionally showing subtle red veining or staining near the skin (not a true red-fleshed variety), dense yet juicy with good firmness and moderate crispness. Flavor is predominantly sweet with high sugar content, balanced by low acidity, delivering a refined, aromatic profile of ripe fruit, subtle floral notes, and a clean, lingering finish.
Excellent for fresh eating, slicing into salads, or light culinary uses; it stores well for several months under proper conditions. Prized by growers and consumers alike for its disease resistance, attractive appearance, superior sweetness, and clean-eating qualities, Story® represents a premium, contemporary choice in the evolving apple market.

Western apples introduced after the nineteenth century were mostly cultivated in Shandong, Liaodong and Jiaodong.

Schneider.).

Storage Method：It can be stored for about 10 days at room temperature or refrigerated.
For household storage, most apple varieties can be stored in the coldest place in the refrigerator (that is, less than 5 ° C) for about 2-4 weeks. Some can be preserved for up to a year without obvious degradation. Some apple varieties (such as "Australian Green Apple" and "Fuji") storage life is more than three times that of other varieties.

raw material
1 eat an apple
100g dried fruit (I tend to use dried blueberries, dried cherries and raisins)
200 g oatmeal
1 tablespoon flaxseed
500ml unsweetened almond milk or regular milk
1 large ripe banana
4 tablespoons natural yogurt
A handful of mixed nuts (or use a handful of my Gorgeous Granola for a sweeter pan)
2 handfuls fresh raspberries or blueberries, or a mixture of both
Honey, optional or not
method
You will need: 6 portable pots with lids, plus spoons
Coarsely grate the apples with a box grater and transfer to a bowl. Add the dried fruit (chop it first if using larger fruit), oatmeal, flax seeds and milk and mix well.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator overnight to soak and expand.
In the morning, or when you're ready to assemble the pots, give the soaked oatmeal a good stir and divide between the pots. Peel the banana and slice thinly at an angle.
Place some banana slices on each pan and add a spoonful of yogurt on top (this will prevent the bananas from turning brown in transit). Roughly chop and sprinkle over nuts and berries.
Drizzle with a little honey (if using) and put the lid on – don’t forget some spoons!
suggestion
Starting the night before can save yourself a lot of time in the morning.
