Selection:
Good-quality grapes are
well-colored, plump, firmly attached to the stem and are
fairly large. (Some varieties of red grapes are supposed
to be small.) Select grapes that are fairly firm, but
not rock-hard. Red varieties are best when red coloring
predominates on all or most of the berries. Grapes are
always picked ripe, and do not ripen further once off
the vine.
Usage:
Eaten fresh, in salads,
as a snack or as a dessert.
