When To Look for Gala Apples: Galas are summer apples, usually harvested in late August or early September.
Best Uses for Gala Apples: Galas are so delicious they’re best eaten fresh out of hand. Their relatively small size makes them perfect for your lunchbox or pocket for a quick, nutrient-packed snack. Their soft, juicier texture also makes them a good choice for adding to sauces or soups for a little natural sugar.
How to Store Gala Apples: Like other apples, keep Galas as cold as possible (without freezing!). Try keeping them in a perforated plastic bag, as this will allow moisture to escape without losing any of the crispness.
