Zingerman's Not Too Late Holiday Catalog 2017

HOLIDAY 2017

Zingerman's Stollen Stollen has been made in and around Dresden, Germany since the late 1300s. It’s a footballish shaped loaf of dense, bready cake studded with candied citrus and dried fruits, and topped with plenty of powdered sugar. It was initially created for Advent­—the period leading up to Christmas—which had rules forbidding butter, so it had none. But in the 1400s, Dresdeners Prince Ernst and his brother Duke Albrecht wrote what surely must be the only papal letterwriting campaign lobbying for butter in Stollen. (Those guys must have really loved stollen.) Five popes and 40 years later they got their wish. Pope Innocent VIII said OK to butter—provided the bakers paid a tax on it, naturally. That tax made stollen expensive, as did the addition of “fancy” ingredients like sugar, spices and candied fruits. For centuries, stollen was a food for royalty.

Today, it’s still made using the same royal recipe, but butter taxes are mostly gone, sugar is no longer fancy, and we all get to enjoy it.

Our delicious German style holiday cake is a longstanding Zingerman’s holiday tradition for folks looking for unique dessert ideas, great gifts and fine food for weekend brunch. If you haven’t had stollen and wonder what all the fuss is about, just take a look at the ingredients: real butter, Bacardi® white rum, glacéed lemons, oranges, cherries, fresh lemon and orange zest, fresh lemon juice, almonds, golden raisins, Red Flame raisins, real vanilla and our very scent-sual Indonesian cinnamon. Toasted and spread with a little sweet butter, it’s delicious and is perhaps rivaled only by our own coffee cake as a great afternoon snack cake. Each stollen comes wrapped in a muslin bag and nestled in a colorful gift box. It serves 6-8 and, barring extensive snacking, lasts for weeks.

The beigli recipe is in our brand new Zingerman's Bakehouse book. Check it out on p. 42

Zingerman’s Beigli We start with a buttery yeasted dough and roll it up around a sweet filling of finely chopped walnuts. The outside has a nice shine to it and a unique crackle appearance. Inside, it has a trademark swirl.

Each beigli comes in a muslin bag with Hungarian art and is gift boxed in our cartoon gift box.

Restaurateur George Lang called Hungary “the land of ten million pastry lovers.” Given the entire population is just shy of that he may have been overstating it—but not by much. Budapest is stuffed with bakeries and drop-dead gorgeous coffeeshops serving up all sorts of confections, cakes, cookies and strudels. You can’t walk down a block without stumbling over a sweet. One of my favorites is Beigli (pronounced bay-glee), Hungary’s take on a sweet nut roll, made by rolling a thin layer of sweet yeasted dough around a filling of ground walnuts. It's been a Hungarian Christmas staple since the 1800s, and for a couple of years now, the master bakers at Zingerman’s Bakehouse have been making it for Christmas in Ann Arbor, too.

Full disclosure: the price on these fruitcakes may cause sticker shock. While England's national holiday cake has become a cheap industrial laughing stock, these are another species altogether. Crafted by Robert Lambert in California from rare citrus that he picks and candies himself. A slice cut thin while the cake is cool—I recommend serving it chilled—looks like a stained glass window and is a taste revelation.

White Rare Citrus Fruitcake Robert's classic cake, the one we've offered for many years. It's by far the best of its kind I’ve ever tried. Robert says, “The recipe is British, Victorian era. It’s based on my grandmother Floria's cake, but instead of the store-bought glacéed fruits she used, I make my own candied fruit.” He chooses blood oranges, bergamots, Rangpur limes and more, many that he picks himself. Each cake is soaked in cognac and aged for a few months, then garnished with a slice of candied fruit and a bay leaf, all wrapped gently in cheese cloth. It tastes fresh, clean and lively. Comes wrapped in a muslin bag.

Dark Rare Citrus Fruitcake

Vintage Rare Citrus Fruitcakes

For his dark cake, Robert starts by candying exotic citrus like Buddha’s hand citron, bergamot, blood orange, Texas lemon and white grapefruit peels. He adds hazelnuts, pecans, walnuts, dark raisins, prunes, black figs soaked in Poire William eau de vie—oh yes, there’s more—dates, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, 10-year-old Ficklin Port, and a bit of candied ginger. Then, wait for it...he soaks it all in bourbon. Like everything Robert creates, these cakes are made by hand, in small-batches with an obsessive attention to detail. The flavor is phenomenal. Comes wrapped in a muslin bag.

If you already consider fruitcake a joke the idea of a vintage fruitcake must seem like a real marketer’s whopper. Selling last year’s fruitcakes? Yes, that’s exactly what we’re doing. In the summer of 2016 Robert made a small number of his rare citrus fruit cakes to age. We cellared them and over the last year the flavor has developed, expanded and gotten more complex. Like a wine that was fun while young, more serious now that its aged, these fruit cakes have become a real afficianado's treat. They sell out quickly every year. Packaged in a gift box.

another reviled british christmas tradition Christmas Pudding

From the culture that brought you fruitcake comes another much-scorned holiday food tradition: Christmas pudding. But just like there’s good fruitcake and lame fruitcake, the same goes for pudding. It's not bad, it's just misunderstood. In Victorian England the holiday pudding would be made from brandy soaked dried fruits, sugar, eggs, lots of spice and just enough flour to hold it all together. This particular pudding comes to us from Thursday Cottage in Essex. They craft it in the old way, with dried currants and red and white raisins that are soaked in Cognac to intensify their flavor and give them a juicier texture. They deploy their own orange marmalade (they're a preserve maker first) as well as sugar, flour, citrus peels, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and another touch of Cognac. It’s traditional to steam the pudding for a couple of hours before serving, but Victorians didn’t have microwaves and they work too.

Serve for dessert in thin slices drizzled with hot brandy butter—or some warmed maple syrup if that's what you have.

A spicy sweet German tradition

Sandy Lee fell in love with lebkuchen, the traditional German Christmas cookie, while living in Berlin. “It was like nothing I’d ever tasted,” she recalls. “I couldn’t get all those complex flavors out of my head.” She became obsessed, learning all she could about them before returning to the states and starting her own lebkuchen bakery. The recipe dates back to Medieval times and has many steps. The dough is made from almond and hazelnut flours, whole almonds, egg whites, honey, marzipan and a bevy of spices. The dense dough rests for nearly a day before heading to the oven.

The finished cookies are hand glazed and studded with almonds (classic variety) or cloaked in dark chocolate. You will find three classic and two chocolate cookies in this fire engine red tin. Each is about four inches across and an inch tall. They’re thick, moist, slightly spicy, sweet and very nutty. The consistency is a cross between cake and marzipan, making them the perfect after dinner treat with coffee or tea.

Although traditionally intended to keep for months, I think these sweet, spicy, nutty treats will only last a few days (or hours!) at your house.

A cookie with history, a perfect gift for anyone on your list.

You know it's Christmas in Italy when the panettone start appearing in shop windows. They're the fluffy, tall cakes that are seasoned with candied citrus and packaged as beautifully as a present for the Pope.

We’ve had great traditional Italian panettone every Christmas since our doors opened in 1982.

show StOPper Chocolate Caramel Marshmallows

After breaking up a batch of their caramel walnut toffee into bite-size chunks, the chocolate geniuses at Vosges Haut Chocolat were left with a pile of toffee crumble that needed a home. They began mixing the surplus with some of their other housemade confections: marshmallows and caramel. They covered the concoction in dark chocolate and crowned with a sprinkle of the toffee crumble.

Voila! A sensation was born. The marshmallow gives each piece a wonderful bounce. The soft caramel is mixed with pieces of pecan giving it a luscious yet substantial texture. A luxurious confection from one of our favorite chocolatiers. The 4 piece box is a show stopper in a Christmas stocking.

I’m a sucker for traditions, especially when they’re this delicious. Peppermint bark has been a Christmas staple for my family thanks to my great-aunt Caddy’s sweet tooth and love of Fannie Farmer’s confections. While I’ll never forget Aunt Caddy, this peppermint bark from Chocolate Signatures in Toronto has erased all memories of that other candy maker.

Dark Belgian chocolate is topped with white chocolate, then coated in a layer of crushed peppermint candies. Each slab of bark is nearly a quarter inch tall and thick with peppermint.

In the Périgord region of southwestern France, walnut orchards blanket the landscape. The locals make walnut wine, walnut eau-de-vie, walnut cakes, walnut breads, salami and cheese with walnuts...the list goes on. One of the most luscious walnut creations I’ve ever had comes from Domaine de Béquignol where they subject these famous nuts to four flavor-enhancing techniques. First they’re toasted, then caramelized, then enveloped in a coat of dark chocolate as thick as the walnut itself, then dusted with cocoa powder. The effect is more than just an accretion of flavor, it’s like an explosion. They’re rich, nutty, so chocolatey, a little crunchy and yet they melt in your mouth.

Twelve perfect nuts per box makes enough to share. Or not.

Red Pepper Truffles

Bonajuto has been making chocolate in the baroque Sicilian town of Modica since 1880. By that time Gustav Lindt had perfected conching, the process that makes chocolate smooth. Nearly every European chocolate maker adopted it. Bonajuto didn’t. They continued to make unconched chocolate, the texture crunchy in comparison. Nowadays that texture has come somewhat back in fashion. Here, you can experience it as it was and always has been. This gift box has bite sized truffles spiced with just a hint of red pepper, another typical addition to 19th century chocolate. An outstanding gift for a chocolate lover—or history buff.

northern italian britTle D. Barbero Torrone Nougat from Piemonte David Barbero’s family has been making torrone hazelnut nougat—what I call Italian brittle—for five generations, since 1883 in the town of Asti. Neither the history nor repetitiveness seems to dull his passion. When you ask him about torrone his eyes light up and he talks in fast, clipped English. “We don’t kill the torrone! Industrial makers use no egg whites and they crank out a batch in an hour. They beat the mixture fast and use lots of pressure. Ours takes seven hours. We break for lunch! All of this makes our texture crumbly, not hard and tough. Here, take a bite, you can taste.” First off, you gotta love the fact that he mentions lunch as a factor in how they make better food. More importantly, he’s spot on, especially when it comes to texture. Barbero torrone is gently crumbly, in a shattering, delicate way. Spiked with loads of famous Piemontese hazelnuts that are roasted in house every morning, then hand selected and folded into the nougat. In their classic Northern Italian graphic-designed tin they make great gifts. Or new this year, an 8-inch long bar, enrobed in chocolate, makes a great stocking stuffer.

After tasting this confection from Nar Gourmet in Turkey, I finally get where he was coming from. Made with twice-roasted pistachios, sugar, water and starch, this seemingly simple confection dazzles with flavor and texture of sweet pistachios.

What could be better than northern Italian fruit jellies with their direct, jammy flavors and ultra smooth texture? Covering those jellies in chocolate would be a good place to start. That’s exactly what Guido Gobino, one of northern Italy’s premier confectioners, has done. They took four different flavors of fruit jellies: pear, apricot, lemon, blueberry; and covered them in chocolate they make themselves. A luscious combination that balances neatly between the bright fruit flavors, the near gumdrop consistency of the jellies, and the smooth sweetness of the milk chocolate.

IRresiStible italIAn fruits Wild Cherries and Hand-Picked Apricots in Syrup

It’s been a dozen holidays since I found wild Italian cherries from Piedmont.

I remember bringing the first jar to Christmas at home, spooning out individual fruits to top a crisp of cracker slathered with a gooey triple crème cheese whose name I forget. I kept at it for an hour—I have a big family and everyone wanted seconds. We barely made a dent in the jar. Prepared in small batches so they do not bruise, packed with syrup in a resealable glass jar, we've been bringing in a small quantity every holiday since and their fans gobble them up. We also offer soft, tender apricots, hand harvested and rushed into a simple syrup bath within hours. The speed is important, it protects the texture and flavor of the fruit. The longer they wait around, the more their texture breaks down, the mushier they get. But that’s the only rushing allowed.

The apricots take their time once they reach their bath, allowing the sugar to slowly soak into the fruit, preserving them and freezing their flavor at its peak.

An elegant gift. Fantastic with gelato or fresh cheeses. The cherries are pitted, but the apricots still have their stones so chew carefully.

From Puglia, the heel of Italy’s boot, comes this spicy, racy extra virgin olive oil. Made from 100% Coratina olives, this one ain’t for everybody. But the oil aficionados who crave intensity will be blown away by its big, bold body and grassy, peppery finish. Fittingly, the bottle is just as intense as the oil within. Ceramic artists create each bottle by hand, at the blistering rate of three per hour. The glaze is vibrant, a swirl of bright stripes. Not only is it beautiful to look at, it’s good for the oil, protecting it from light which causes olive oil to lose its flavor. Keep it around and you can fill it with new oil when you run out.

gelt Grown up Chanukah Gelt

The best tasting—and most authentic looking—gelt I’ve ever encountered. Gold and silver dusted disks (no foil wrapping here) from Veruca Chocolates in Chicago are formed to look like Judean coins circa 40 B.C. The real treasure is their flavor: dark chocolate with crunchy crystals of sea salt, an adult balance of sweet and savory. A great gift for every day of Chanukah. Kosher. Quantities limited.

Edible Box of Chocolates

Special for Chanukah. Chuck Siegel and his team at Charles Chocolates in San Francisco have created a box of chocolates so delicious, even the box is a treat. Inside are eighteen assorted handmade confections. They’re delicious all by themselves. But the striking box holding the truffles is made of solid chocolate that’s just as tasty. The lid is made of dark chocolate and decorated with an elegant menorah. A stunning gift for any sweets lover.

Awesome for kids and adults alike. Quantities limited.

cake of light

Zingerman’s Olive Oil Cake Made with toasted almonds, lemon zest—nearly a whole lemon’s worth per cake—and lots of excellent extra virgin olive oil. It’s moist, tender, with a flavor that lingers long after the slice is sent south. The olive oil makes the cake retain more moisture than butter so it has a lovely, soft texture that stays that way for days and days. The oil also makes the cake an appropriate symbolic dish for Chanukah. We send each cake safely and attractively packaged in our cartoon box or handsome wooden crate. Serves 5-7.

What was old is new again Chocolate Raisin Babka

The year was 1994. A small deli in Ann Arbor, Michigan launched its mail order business and a little show called ‘Seinfeld’ aired an episode centered around babka. Two decades later, Seinfeld is in reruns and we’re finally shipping babka, a traditional Jewish pastry that’s enjoying its own renaissance. The master bakers at Zingerman’s Bakehouse have given babka a flavor update worthy of the new millennium. Rich with butter, swirling with chocolate and cinnamon, and studded with golden sultana raisins, our modern babka bursts with chocolatey sweetness. If you have memories of dry, lifeless babka from your childhood, forget ‘em. A new day has dawned and babka is the pastry star of 2017. Wrapped in tissue and gift boxed.

Traditionally they’re for Passover, but I’m on a mission to have us all eating macaroons all year long. Why hold back when they’re this good? Our coconut macaroons are slightly crunchy on the outside, rich and creamy on the inside. Baked with Madagascar Vanilla or Belgian Chocolate. Simply put, they're the best-tasting coconut macaroons I’ve ever had anywhere, with a buttery, coconut aroma that stays with you like a strong memory.

A-MAC 6 vanilla, 6 chocolate, boxed $25

Mandelbread is a citrus almond cookie. They’re similar to biscotti—moon-shaped and crunchy—but instead of tasting like sad cardboard they have loads of citrus-and-almond flavor. Toasted almonds get the spotlight. There are a ton of them. Almost more than can fit. The rest of the mandelbread is held together with fresh eggs and sweet butter, and the flavor is amplified with fresh lemon and orange zest along with a dose of real vanilla. Crunchy, crispy and very dunkable in coffee or milk, they’re great enjoyed by their lonesome when it’s time for a sweet reward.

Alziari Olive Oil

Peranzana Olive Oil

It's now been over two decades since I first fell in love with Alziari, the old shop in the historic center of Nice, on France’s Côte d’Azur. Their extra virgin olive oil is exceptional and typically Niçoise—light, flowery and elegant but still full of character and charisma. I could use the same phrase to describe the tin it comes in. It's such a beautiful package that it makes one of the best gifts from our catalog; it needs no wrapping.

O-ALZ 1 liter tin $50

We looked long and hard for an oil to call our own. We finally chose this one. Zingerman’s Olive Oil is made by Marina Colonna on her ancient estate in the Molise, a little over 100 miles due east of Rome. Made from hand picked Peranzana olives pressed the same day they’re taken from the tree, this extra virgin olive oil is hugely flavorful.

angels shArE Agrumato Lemon Oil

This is a unique oil that’s got one of the most dedicated followings I’ve ever witnessed. We tracked it down years ago at the adamant insistence of Nancy Harmon Jenkins, one of the world’s most knowledgeable food folks, and it’s had a growing cadre of fans ever since. A rich, golden nectar with a distinctive herbal character no other oil can match, it sings with an unequaled pitch in its range of high and low flavor notes. One of its fans told me, “If you love olives, you’ll want to marry this oil.”

O-MAU 500 ml $40

I keep imagining that if I went to heaven, I’d discover this to be the oil the angels put on their salads. Smooth and olive-y with a lemoniness that tickles your nose like the bubbles of a fine champagne. This is not lemon flavored oil but the traditional pressing of olives and lemons together—oil of the fruit married to oil of the olive in an ethereal combination. You can do most anything with Agrumato lemon you’d do with other oils and then some. It’s fantastic brushed on top of almost any just-broiled fish.

Balsamic Balsamic Vinegars from La Vecchia Dispensa

Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni and her husband Marino Tintori make a range of great vinegars. Although Americans tend to gravitate toward sweet caramel-flavored balsamics, Marino is quick to emphasize “the key to great Balsamico is balance.” Exaggerating sweetness is an easy way to enhance appeal and reduce the need for proper blending and aging. You might not notice it at first, but after many uses overly sweet balsamics get kind of dull. Not so with those from the Tintoris. We’ve been selling them for over a decade, and they have a legion of followers who return to them again and again.

Luxe bOX of balsAmIcs Gift Box of Four Balsamics

You don’t have to be a balsamic sommelier to taste the difference between these amazing vinegars. As balsamics age, they go from being bright and tart to taking on a sweeter, more raisin-y flavor and a thicker, more syrupy texture. The young balsamics are better for vinaigrettes; the older ones are killer drizzled on cheese or berries. This collection of four bottles from our longtime source for balsamic, La Vecchia Dispensa in Modena, Italy, range in age from 10 to 30 years. Nestled in a beautiful box, they make a stunning gift.

Agrodolce White Balsamic Vinegar

Agrodolce is super smooth, light on the tongue, subtle and very, very long in the finish. Technically it's not a balsamic, but you can use it in place of balsamic since it’s similarly soft and sweet. Wherever it’s employed, your cooking will be enhanced by one of the most elegant vinegars I’ve tried in a really long time. It’s crafted by Sante Bertoni on his family estate outside of Modena, Italy.

Described as a bit of a mad scientist, Sr. Bertoni is giving the vinegar extra maturing just for us, making its flavor more complex before it hits your kitchen.

holiday CLASsic Zingerman’s Spiced Pecans

Service star at Zingerman's Mail Order

My obsession with Zingerman’s Spiced Pecans is serious... I love how one seemingly simple food can be so versatile! Toss a few over fresh greens and your salad instantly becomes more sophisticated. Pile a few on a cheese plate and your dinner guests will gobble them with delight. You can even jazz up breakfast by stirring some into your oatmeal or muffin batter. However, most often, you’ll find me snacking on them right out of the package. The balance of flavors along with the crunch makes my mouth happy and the perfect blend of sweet and savory lightly lingers on my tongue long after my last bite. The warm, buttery aroma reminds me of my days living in Manhattan when the scent of freshlyroasted nuts would fill my nose with coziness and, for a brief moment, make the city feel like my hometown in the Midwest.

Hazelnut & Chocolate Spread

This is like Nutella® for adults. Well, maybe you already enjoy it as an adult (it’s good), but this is to Nutella® what a dark chocolate Valrhona bar is to Hershey’s®.

The more intense, less sweet, more flavorful spread you’ll want to keep for yourself. Italian Piedmontese hazelnuts are ground fine then mixed into a smooth chocolate cream that’s known in Italy as gianduja. The texture is somewhere between mousse and fudge. It’s a staple breakfast spread on toast for breakfast for many.

Others top off ice cream with a spoonful. Either way, it’s amazing.

first TIme ClasSic Seville Orange Marmalade

Robert Lambert is many things: a fruit encyclopedia, a meticulous preserve maker, a perfectionist, and a thousand other adjectives, but one thing he’s NOT is cheap. Other producers order fruit from a distributor, Robert picks his own. Others use water in their recipes, Robert juices the fruit himself and uses that instead of water. Others haphazardly toss chopped up peels into their recipes, Robert candies them first. Like I said: obsessive and meticulous.

For this marmalade—Robert’s biggest seller—he mixes bergamot and a bit of Meyer lemon in to balance the sourness of the Seville oranges. Where as other marmalades made by less diligent producers are some combination of too sweet and too bitter, Robert’s marmalade comes across as bright, fresh tasting, clean, and bursting with citrus. Even your grandmother would say Robert takes things a little too far.

the CAviar Of mustArds Violet Mustard

When this violet mustard caught my eye ten years ago it seemed like a gimmick.

But moustarde au violette has been eaten in French grape growing regions for centuries. It used to be made each autumn by blending freshly pressed red grape juice with just ground mustard seed. It was a lost art until Elie-Arnaud Denoix worked for a year to revive it. Violet mustard is coarsely ground and crunches when you bite, like caviar. It’s naturally sweet and spicy, making it ideal for serving with meats of all sorts. In its home region of Périgord it’s a traditional side for boudin sausage cooked with apples. It also adds a flowery flush of flavor to fresh cheeses like our City Goat and creamy ones like Harbison (both online).

briny, fuNkY,IrResiStIBlE Sea Urchin Pasta Sauce

Sea urchin is an acquired taste. But once acquired it haunts you. For me, there is nothing else I can eat that evokes the sea as strongly as it does.

Mussels are close. Oysters are closer. But sea urchin is briny and funky in a way that, as soon as the first bite hits, I can recall what the summer wind off the ocean felt like. I first tasted Paolo Licata’s sugo di ricci—sea hedgehog sauce, the Italian word for sea urchins—in Sicily a decade ago.

When we got the first shipment of a few cases it was just as I’d remembered: a sweet, delicious Sicilian classic tomato sauce, spiked with shrimp and anchovies, with a deep current of urchin flavor running throughout.

It’s a smooth sauce, homogenous, no chunks of fish, and I adore it on a plate of just-cooked Rustichella bucatini (online) with nothing else except a glass of cold white wine nearby. The sauce’s flavor is strong enough that a little goes a long way, which makes the expense of such a luxury easier to bear. A few spoonfuls per person is enough, so a jar can easily serve 8.

Bread by mAiL? meEt The zEro RIsk loaf.

I know, it sounds crazy. It sounded nuts in 1992 when we started baking. Still does today. But we ship more bread than any other food we sell, always have. We bake them with minimal ingredients, often just flour, water, salt, and natural sour starter. We take our time making them— up to 18 hours for tangy loaves like French Mountain and Sourdough. And we bake them in a stone hearth oven, which gives the bread a crisper, more flavorful crust. There’s not a bad loaf among them and the real gems—traditional peasant loaves like Paesano, Farm, and Jewish Rye—will rearrange your tastebuds, redefining what you think bread can be. If you’re not totally convinced but curious to see what the fuss is about, rest assured you can try it without risk. I guarantee you’ll love it. If you don’t, I’ll refund or re-ship, no questions asked.

Cranberry Pecan Bread

Loaded with dried cranberries and toasted pecans, this loaf is the kissing cousin to our extremely popular Pecan Raisin Bread (online). Dense, chewy and crunchy, cranberry pecan has a tart tang that’s very enjoyable. Sliced thin, it’s great on a cheese board. It’s also great to toss in the bread basket for dinner.

You'll be sitting in front of the most decadent dessert you've had in years.

It’s simple: our sourdough bread stuffed with chunks of dark Belgian chocolate. Like most of the school children I know, I like to rip off a hunk and eat it as soon as I open the bag, but it's best when you pop it in the oven for about fifteen to twenty minutes. Your entire kitchen is likely to be filled with sensuous smells—warm chocolate, good bread. This is one loaf that's very hard to keep around the house.

Jewish Rye

This is rye like my grandparents ate in Eastern Europe, made with plenty of rye flour (believe it or not, most “rye bread” sold in America contains very little rye flour), a natural sour rye starter (not the usual canned shortcuts) and lots of time to let the dough develop. The base bread for our reuben and many other sandwiches.

pepPered bacon farm bread

We used to bake this on special occasions and we’d get so many orders we'd run out of bacon. It’s Farm Bread dough with Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon and Tellicherry black pepper. Every bite has a bit of sourdough tang and a lot of the sweet, smoky meatiness of bacon, plus a little spice. I’m sure it makes great sandwiches, but I’ve never had a loaf around long enough to try.

parmesan pepPer heretic's loaf

My Italian friends would probably think this bread is heresy, but that’s their loss.

It’s a natural for me because I love bread, parmesan and good black pepper. There’s a quarter pound of parmesan in every loaf, along with a load of cracked black peppercorns. Leaves your mouth pleasantly aroused from the heat of the pepper and salivating from the savory sweetness of the parmesan. It’s fantastic when toasted.

I love this bread: savory, lusty, delicious and dangerously close to addictive.

Softly spicy, fire-roasted New Mexico green chiles and Nor'easter Cabot cheddar blended into the Bakehouse’s tangy Farm Bread. Great on its own or as an accompaniment to dinner. It’s especially good if you give it about twenty minutes in a 325 degree oven before you break it open so it’s nice and steamy when you crack the crust.

roadhouse bread

Farm Bread

Imagine sitting around a French farmhouse table waiting for dinner. This would be the bread the family would serve. Like French pain au levain, it's a white-wheat mix made with a sour starter. Its crust is crisp, its flavor subtle and never tiring. The three pound round is my favorite. Cut into quarters and freeze what you don’t eat.

B-FRM-RND 3 lb handmade round $16 B-FRM-LOF 1½ lb handmade loaf $9.50 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

The house bread at our restaurant, Zingerman’s Roadhouse, and a local favorite. It’s based on an early New England recipe, made by combining rye flour and cornmeal with wheat. Anyone from an 18th century New Englander to Laura Ingalls Wilder would recognize and enjoy it today (it’s referred to in Little House on the Prairie as Rye ‘n’ Injun bread). The same goes for almost anyone I hand a slice to today. It’s got great crust and a soft, chewy center that has a slight sweetness from dark molasses, making it a hit with kids.

Excellent with cream cheese and smoked salmon.

Our most popular bread. Spreading out like the cap of a wild mushroom, its thin, snow white crust surrounds a soft, savory crumb filled with lots of holes (we work hard to put the holes in). This is the traditional bread of Puglia—the heel of Italy’s boot—and the best one to eat alongside a pasta dinner.

Recommended for ripping and dipping in olive oil.

Ortiz Tunas from Spain Tuna is one of the most popular foods we sell. It may seem surprising because here in the U.S., tinned tuna is a low-end commodity usually sold in supermarkets. In Spain it’s at the complete opposite of the culinary spectrum. Tuna in tins, especially these from the fourth-generation family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain's culinary crown. Ortiz's fish are all line caught—not netted—hand filleted at sea and quickly tinned in good olive oil. The olive oil is key. It adds flavor and makes the texture silky over time, unlike water, which tends to leach flavors from the fish. We went to Spain and selected a single great batch of Bonito loin, our best seller, for fullness of flavor, silky texture, and lingering sweetness.

National treasure Portuguese Sardines Tuna is our top-selling tinned seafood, but sardines aren't too far behind. It's surprising to me since sardines are not a big part of the popular food scene in America. This is perhaps the classic case of tinned food seen as poor, low-quality food. Before college students ate 75 cent ramen, they ate 10 cent sardines. Forget that stereotype. Here, four or five tender, perfect sardines, come nested in a tin of olive oil, and their flavor is extraordinary— the prize of Portugal, revered there as a kind of national seafood treasure. We offer pure olive oil (classic style, illustrated) or extra virgin olive oil, which has the effect of making the flavor more buttery, less metallic; in a way it's less fishy.

unparAlLeLEd pie Toasted Pecan Pie Pecan pie is the one of Southern cooking’s best diplomats. It’s hard to find folks who won’t dig into a slice placed in front of them. That said, there are good pecan pies and there are great ones. The better versions take the time and expense to tend the details. Like real butter in the crust, each one rolled and pressed out by hand. And great brown sugar—ours is organic and natural, from Mauritius—for the filling. And of course pecans: toasted pecans. Toasted before they’re baked because the flavor amplifies by an order of magnitude when you crisp them up a bit. And loads of them. Our bakers stuff in so many pecans that there’s barely enough room to fit them in, let alone any of the caramelly brown-sugar custard. Zingerman’s pecan pie explodes with flavor, a warm balanced flavor that’s never too sweet, but is unparalleled, unforgettable.

Manchester Cheese I must confess that I love cheese, and one of my long-time favorites is Manchester from Zingerman’s Creamery. Normally I will not even look at a cheese made from pasteurized milk, but this one is a rare exception—it is that good. It beautifully showcases the seasonal nature and flavors of the local milk used to make it. The cheese is soft and lusciously creamy with a mild tang when young, and gets denser and more flavorful as it ages, with a soft, almost runny rind that is delectable. Versatile and fitting all year round.

Dreamy

Years ago, the gelato makers at Zingerman’s Creamery traveled to Italy to learn how to make great gelato from the undisputed experts.

We pretty much do it exactly the same way today. First, we get the best milk we can find: it comes delivered directly from Calder Dairy, one of the last farmstead dairies in Michigan that’s just southeast of Ann Arbor. Using the gelato-making equipment we brought over from Bologna, Italy, we churn the milk in small batches with super delicious ingredients like organic Demerara brown sugar, Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, Koeze peanut butter, and loads more. The result is gelato with creamy, rich texture and with direct, intense flavors that’s guaranteed to knock some socks off.

Creaminess is the hallmark of great Stilton cheese. And Colston Bassett Stilton is the creamiest of British Stiltons—one of the world’s great blue cheeses and the traditional holiday cheese of England. These wheels of Colston Bassett were selected just for us

by England’s great cheese exporter, Neal’s Yard Dairy. Paired with a glass of ruby port, it’s the perfect ending to a memorable meal, or the prelude to a special gathering of friends and family.

Black Betty Brabander Goat Gouda from Holland Every year Betty Koster of Holland’s L’amuse cheese shops sets aside a small trove of her treasured Brabander goat gouda cheese.

Where most wheels are aged for six months, this group gets to rest for double that time. Here, all the great elements of Brabander are amplified. The caramel. The grass. The milkshake richness. When it’s gone that’s it till next fall. A once-a-year treat.

who got their brandy in my cheEse?

Regal Raisin from France

One of the my favorite holiday cheeses is Regal Raisin: a triplecrème from France covered in Marc de Bourgogne soaked raisins. A little explanation on those terms is probably in order.

Triple-crème is technical jargon cheesemongers geek out over, it basically means the cheese is really rich and made with lots of cream. Its level of butterfat is only slightly less than butter, if that helps. Marc de Bourgogne is aged brandy from eastern France that gives structure to the coating of sweet raisins. Together they slice through the buttery rich flavor of the cheese to open up complex, compelling flavor. Set this down after dinner, stand back, and watch the compliments fly.

christmaS's spoOnable wonder Harbison Cheese from Vermont

Harbison is a soft-ripened cheese from the acclaimed cheese makers at Jasper Hill in Vermont. It’s a small wheel made from pasteurized cow’s milk, wrapped in the inner bark of spruce trees. The bark holds the cheese together as it ages and imparts a woody, slightly piney flavor to the cheese inside.

As it ages, the cheese goes from being light and firm to ooey, gooey, and spoonable. Let it come to room temperature, cut off the top, scoop it out onto something warm and crusty, then sit back and let your eyes roll into the back of your head.

Pecan Smoked Hams The meat masters at Smoking Goose in Indianapolis start this ham with heritage Duroc-breed pork from Gunthorp Farm in northern Indiana. The pigs are raised out on pasture with plenty of room to root and roam, and they’re never given antibiotics or hormones. The hams are cured with pepper, coriander, mustard seed, honey, bay leaf and Shelby Blue Ribbon Cider, a strawberry-rhubarb cider from New Day Meadery in Indianapolis. The flavor is a knockout. Sweet and complex, with a smooth smokiness that lingers long after you put down your fork. The hams are fully cooked and ready to eat right away. Most people simply heat them up and they're ready to be the centerpiece for a big meal. A Zingerman’s exclusive, available only for the holiday season.

In the last decade there’s been a renewed interest in old fashioned grass-fed beef. Not all of it is great in part because not every rancher bring their cattle to slaughter at the right time. Just like tomatoes have a season, so do grass fed cattle. Lush summer grass makes for great tasting beef. Winter grass makes for less flavorful—and less tender—beef. At Carman Ranch in Oregon, the cattle spend their whole lives out on pasture eating grass, and they only produce beef when the grass is at its richest and the cattle are at their fattest. You really can taste the difference.

Nueske’s Bacons There’s a reason Nueske's Applewood Smoked Bacon is our top seller. It is perfectly balanced between softly, pleasantly sweet and salty/smoky. To me this is the Platonic ideal of bacon.

If I were to choose one bacon to eat every day, which pretty much sounds like heaven, this would be it. Nueske’s slices it thickly just for us. Or, for those who prefer bacons toward the lighter end of the spectrum, Nueske’s Cherrywood Smoked is a little milder, the salt a little lighter, the smokiness a little more present.

Bacon of the Month Club

Six to date. That’s how many vegetarians I know who’ve fallen off the bandwagon thanks to bacon. I’m not using that as a proposal for torturing anyone. I’m just saying any food that’s so good it can break a strong will has to be worth trying. Our bacon club has been lauded by chefs, sous chefs, home chefs, pork-o-philes and bacon freaks all over America. It’s our most popular food club by far and it’s not just the novelty of baconby-mail that makes it so loved. The bacons are downright amazing.

It’s hard to find any of these bacons in most shops, let alone all of them. They represent the pinnacle of American bacon making and, let’s be honest, this is one food that no one in the world does better than us. Sorry Europe, it’s true. Your Parmigiano-Reggiano and your Champagnes are great, but you can’t touch our bacon.

Heritage Turkey from BN Ranch

Bill Niman—formerly of Niman Ranch—is a legendary name in the sustainable meat business. He made his name in pork and beef but he also raises heritage breed turkeys. Heritage turkeys are old breed birds that more difficult to breed and more expensive to raise but have tremendous flavor. These are the kinds of birds that made turkey the coveted centerpiece of thanksgiving. They are the gold standard for great American poultry.

What about commercial turkey? Artificially inseminated because they’ve been bred for such big breasts they can’t have sex. Raised in confinement eating a daily cocktail of antibiotics in their feed. They taste like the salt and water they’re pumped full of, with very little turkey flavor.

You might have had any number of great reasons to buy one of Bill’s turkeys for your feast this year.

They’re sustainably raised. They support diverse genetics. They can have sex by themselves. But when you come back for one next year, it will be for one simple reason—they taste so good. Order now, we’ll ship to arrive the week before Thanksgiving.
