Foods To Hunker Down At Home With Flour from Zingerman’s Bakehouse

You may not have won any challenges in the Great British Baking Show, but still, you baked. When you hunkered down you ordered flour and you put it to use. Cookies, muffins, brownies, and, when you felt particularly ambitious, bread. We mailed thousands of pounds of our workhorse flour this year, Zingerman’s Bakehouse All Purpose. And loads of our other, smallfarm freshly milled flours, which are a real revelation. They may not have helped that bread get a handshake from Paul Hollywood, but they sure did make it taste good.

Roadhouse Bread

Even if you weren’t baking your own loaves in 2020, bread was a stay at home staple. Roadhouse bread from Zingerman’s Bakehouse, based on an early New England recipe combining rye, cornmeal, and wheat, is one of my favorites for its versatility. Slightly sweetened with molasses, it’s great for toast at breakfast. Slightly tangy from a sourdough fermentation, it’s excellent alongside cheeses or smoked salmon for dinner.

For many of us, 2020 was the year to give up the low carb diet and relearn to love gluten. In addition to flour and bread, pasta and tomato sauce were vital pantry staples. In particular, Rustichella pastas and Il Mongetto tomato sauces flew off our shelves. It’s no wonder—the pair make the best at-home fast food I know. Rustichella pasta is made with hard durum semolina extruded through bronze dies so it has a scruffy, rough surface, perfect for holding sauce. Il Mongetto’s sauces have a clean, fresh, compelling flavor that proved so popular, we had to fly planefuls of them to Ann Arbor to try keep them in stock. Keep some of each around for that night you don’t want to cook. More pasta shapes and sauce flavors at zingermans.com.

Ortiz Line-Caught Tuna

I didn’t know what, if anything, people might come to us for when the pandemic arrived. But I learned quickly: Ortiz tuna, and lots of it. It’s a stock-up item for many of our customers. It might be the first food I decided to sell by the case and it’s definitely the one people bulk up on the most. Still, it went fast. It wasn’t long before Joe, our buyer, was on the phone to Ortiz in Spain to see how much they could send and how soon. They sent a pallet on a boat ASAP. And another. And another. Once you try it, you’ll understand why. Pro tip: it’s particularly tasty mixed into a bowl of Rustichella pasta with Il Mongetto tomato sauce (both above).

Parmigiano Reggiano

Ibérico Bacon

So much of my time at home in 2020 was brightened by little indulgences. A fresh cup of good coffee in the morning. A perfect, juicy peach from the market in the summer. And at brunch, this bacon, made from heritage Ibérico breed pigs raisedout on pasture in Georgia. With a fat that all but melts in your mouth and a deep savoriness I’ve never tasted elsewhere, this is bacon indulgence at its best. M-WOB 12 oz sliced $20 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

It’s always been my Desert Island Cheese. Now I know it’s my Pandemic Cheese, too. There’s almost nothing in the refrigerator–cheese or otherwise–that can be used in such small quantities to add such large amounts of flavor to so many dishes. Grated on roasted vegetables. Shaved on a salad. The rind cooked to melting in a sauce or stew. It acts like a seasoning, a spice, a salt, and on top of all that, you can eat it on its own, too. C-PAR hand cut, by the pound $35 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Roadhouse Joe Coffee

With breakfast eateries and coffee shops closed down for much of 2020, access to a fine cup of java often meant access to good beans to brew for yourself at home. Roadhouse Joe, a blend of beans from Papua New Guinea, Costa Rica, India, and Brazil, is the most popular coffee roasted by Zingerman’s Coffee Company. Nutty and well-balanced, it’s easy to love. We ship it whole bean, for maximum flavor and longevity. P-COF-ROA 12 oz, whole bean $22 2 or more bags, $20 each SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Koeze Cream-Nut Peanut Butter

Sometimes I think if nostalgia had a flavor it would taste like peanut butter—and if I’m lucky, it would taste like Koeze’s Cream Nut Peanut Butter. Made from roasted Virginia peanuts and sea salt, with no sugar added, each jar has intense, rich, smooth, mouth-watering flavor and sets the standard. Comfort food doesn’t get much better than this.

Just because we’re all hunkered down at home doesn’t mean we aren’t still thinking of loved ones and looking for ways to care for them. Our perennial best selling gift, the sour cream coffee cake, took on double duty in 2020 as a flavorful way to say “I love and miss you.” Loaded with Indonesian cinnamon and toasted walnuts and baked in a traditional bundt pan, it’s soft and scrumptious with a legion of loyal fans.

of 2020 Red Rage Barbecue Sauce

It’s been the house sauce at Zingerman’s Roadhouse restaurant for almost two decades, and this year, for the first time, we put it in a bottle. That’s not to say we sent it off to a co-packer factory to produce in bulk like many restaurants do when they want to “leverage their brand.” We kept it in our kitchen. We make a few gallons at a time. We did buy an electric label roller, our one nod to automation. Everything else is done slowly, by hand, just like good barbecue should be. P-RRG 14 oz bottle $12

State Street Wheat Bread

Unlike nearly all of our breads, with their crisp, crunchy crusts, this is a classic, soft sandwich loaf, packed in a plastic bag and sliced. The flavor and texture are familiar, like grocery store loaves many of us grew up with. But instead of being loaded with unpronounceable fillers ours has just seven ingredients, all of which you’ll recognize. A retro-loaf made with modern care. B-SSW 1.75 lb loaf, sliced $9

The latest, greatest creation from Zingerman’s Creamery is an oozy, woozy, Brie-style cheese. Unlike the large wheels of Brie which caught on in Paris to feed lots of people by the wedge, each four-ounce round of this cheese fits in your palm. The flavor is buttery, mushroomy, almost meaty. Great with a good crusty loaf of bread, fresh apples, pears, or nuts. C-MBR 4 oz round $18

Holm Oak Honey

Holm oaks are an evergreen oak native to the Mediterranean region. In the fall they drop boatloads of acorns that feed Spain’s famous Ibérico pigs. But pigs aren’t the only animals the acorns feed. When the oaks grow at higher altitudes, the acorns secrete a bit of sap on cold autumn nights. Bees love this sweet oak sap. The honey they make from it has notes of caramel, blueberry, and toasty tones. It’s silky, and almost never crystallizes. P-HOH 9 oz jar $22

Dario’s Tuscan Sea Salt

The breakout salt/spice/herb of 2020. It’s got a lot of slashes because it’s got a lot of stuff going on. It’s salt, yes, but only three quarters sodium chloride. The rest is sage, lavender, thyme, rosemary, bay, fennel pollen, juniper. The French have their herbes de Provence. This is the Tuscan response. A beguiling, aromatic powerhouse for your kitchen. From Dario Cecchini, Italy’s famed butcher. Extraordinary on White Cat Popcorn (page 6). P-TSC 420 g jar $25 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Vanilla Plum Cream

Cacciatore Salami

At the storybook castle Château de Born in southwestern France, they grow fabulous plums. After harvest, they dry them just enough to preserve them, then whip them into a luscious cream with a bit of vanilla bean. The flavor is bright and clean and fruity, and the texture is silky and rich. Spread it on toast or croissants or crêpes, dollop a spoonful on ice cream or into your oatmeal. P-VPC 220 g jar $16

Red Bear Provisions’ has quickly become one of our favorite salami makers. Working just outside Chicago, Illinois, salami maker Inessa and her crew use premium cuts of beef and pork to create their salamis, and this little stick packs a wallop. Made and named for its intended consumer—cacciatori (Italian for huntsmen)—each small salami is salty, rich, unctuous, intense and very porky. M-CTR 6 oz $19

for 2021 Duck & Pork Pâté

The first time I heard The Clash’s London Calling, I was hooked. Something clicked inside and it sent me down a musical path I enjoy to this day. Around the same time, I first tasted pâté. You see how that ended. This classic terrine from the folks at D’Artagnan—a staple of the specialty food world since the mid-80s—is made from hormone and antibiotic-free duck and pork. This particular style is inspired by the recipes of southwestern France where they like their pâté to be a coarser texture that lets the ingredients shine. The addition of dried plums and Armagnac adds to the texture and balances the savory notes with a touch of sweetness. A bit indulgent, definitely delicious.

Roast Garlic Spread

Every now and again you find a product that can (and should) go with everything. The deep, savory, rich, slow-roasted garlic kick you love is now available in a jar from our friends at Blake Hill in Windsor, Vermont. Crack open the jar and the sweet/savory smell of caramelized onions, garlic, brown sugar and bevy of spices catches your attention. Your mind races, thinking of flavor combinations and dishes that NEED this savory spread. Burgers, sandwiches, eggs, roasted veggies, marinades, atop crusty bread, grilled cheese, cereal...no, not cereal. But pretty much everything else will get a big boost from a dollop of this.

White Cat Popcorn

Popcorn people are particular. I say this knowing I am cut from that cloth myself. It started when I was young. My mom and I at the TV, she’d say, “You know what I could go for?” and I knew exactly what she meant. Popcorn. I made it on the stove with the one pan that made it best and topped it with melted butter and salt. We tried an air popper exactly once. After the first taste, we looked at each other, shook our heads, and went back to the pan. Since then I’ve tried all kinds of variations, seeking popcorn nirvana. I continue to experiment with ingredients—except for one. I have found my popcorn. White cat makes the tastiest, fluffiest, straight up greatest popcorn I’ve ever had.

Fishtown Whitefish Pâté

Michigan may be known as the cherry capital of the world, but this writer from the mitten votes whitefish spread as Michigan’s greatest culinary legacy. Like eating lobster in Maine, Michiganders enjoy whitefish in all its splendor when we head “up north” for vacation along our third coast. As with any regional food, everyone has their favorite version. This smooth, creamy spread from the tiny fishing village of Leland (AKA Fishtown) is mine. Made with freshly-caught fillets of whitefish straight out of Lake Michigan, this pâté is a perfect pair with crackers, from fresh cherries, and crisp glass of cool wine.

Zingerman’s Gelato 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. We churn the milk in small batches with super delicious ingredients like Zingerman’s cold brew coffee, Michigan maple syrup, Guittard cocoa, and loads more. The result is gelato with creamy, rich texture and with direct, intense flavors that’s guaranteed to knock some socks off.

Swiss Antique Gruyère

English Clothbound Cheddar

These seventy-pound wheels are aged for over a year (at least six months longer than standard issue Gruyère), hence the term “antique.” The extra aging gives this Alpine cheese an exceptionally full flavor. Imagine the flavor of the Gruyère you know now but ten times more delicious and infinitely more interesting. Smooth, with the spiciness of a great Rhine wine. It’s got an incredible nose and a dry, yet creamy on the tongue texture. C-GRU by the pound $30

Montgomery’s is one of only three farms in its ancestral homeland making truly traditional farmhouse English cheddar from the unpasteurized milk of a single herd of Holstein Friesian cows who graze on hills thought to be the site of Camelot in Somerset in western England. These clothbound wheels age for more than a year until they’re flaky, golden, and have bold flavor that’s punchy, grassy, vegetal and brothy. A total revelation. C-EFC by the pound $42

Italian Valserena Parmigiano Reggiano Practically all Parmigiano Reggiano is made from milk pooled together from multiple farms. But the fifth-generation cheesemakers at Valserena make a farmstead cheese. That means they not only make the cheese, they also raise the cows, and all of the milk comes from their own herd. Where most parm is made from the milk of Freisian cows, at Valserena they raise brown Bruna Sola cows. They produce less milk than Freisians, but it has more butterfat—and more flavor. The result is outstanding: the cheese has a citrusy, mouthwatering quality, not unlike what you experience when you eat a juicy steak. Outstanding grated over a dish or for snacking on by itself.

THE NEW AMERICAN MEAT

Most American meat comes from animals bred to turn feed into flesh as efficiently as possible. We bred out their ability to survive the elements (solution: cram them cheek by jowl into enormous barns) or to fight disease (solution: pump them full of antibiotics). We also bred out most of the flavor. The good news is that there are a handful of farmers out there today who are breaking from the industry norms and turning back the clock on meat. They’re raising heritage breed animals that were selected for flavor, not efficiency. They’re raising them outdoors, on pasture, where they have plenty of room to roam and they eat what they’ve always eaten rather than laboratory-developed rations. All that extra time, care, and effort can pay off with amazing flavor.

Carman Ranch Beef Coulotte Steaks

The coulotte is a little known cut in North America and Europe—except amongst a select few in the know, like chefs, butchers, and Brazilian expats (who go crazy for it, they call it picanha). It's a fairly lean cut from the top sirloin that's nicely tender with deep, beefy flavor with a subtle herbaceous quality. An outstanding choice for grilling. Ships frozen.

Strip steaks—also known as Kansas City strips, top loin or strip loin steaks—are a perennial favorite because they strike a balance between being tender and packed with flavor. They’re equally outstanding on the grill or in a cast iron pan on the stove top. These grass-fed, grass-finished strips that we get from Cory Carman and her team are deeply savory, with earthy flavor and a great mineral tang. Ships frozen.

Heritage Breed Pork

Pork Chop Tasting Flight

The breed of a pig has a huge impact on flavor. The heritage breeds, as they’re called, are hogs who’ve been bred to thrive in different climates and produce great tasting meat. They’re making a bit of a comeback these days. You can spot them called out by name on menus in restaurants or at butchers’ counters, if you’re lucky enough to still have a working butcher in your town. It’s rare to spot more than one breed in the case, though, let alone four, like in this flight of pork chops.

BACON MANIA Escape with Bacon

Camp Bacon Gift Box

A gift box for the bacon lover, the bacon fanatic, the bacon lunatic. Chances are if you’re reading this catalog you know several people who match that description. Includes Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon from Wisconsin, Irish-Style Back Bacon from Chicago, Hickory Smoked Duroc Breed Bacon from Indiana, plus a loaf of Peppered Bacon Farm Bread from Zingerman’s Bakehouse, Mo’s Bacon Chocolate Bar from Vosges in Chicago, and our Bacon Pig Magnet and Pocket Book of Bacon stories and tips. G-CAMP-1 gift box, serves 8-10 $115 FREE SHIPPING

Nueske’s Bacons

Benton’s Berkshire Bacon

Gunthorp’s Duroc Bacon

Nueske's Applewood Smoked Bacon is our top seller. 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 cures their bacon in spiced brine, smokes it over applewood for 24 hours then slices it thickly just for us. On the lighter end of the spectrum, Nueske’s Cherrywood bacon is a little milder, the salt a little lighter, the smokiness a little more present. M-BAC 1 lb applewood, sliced $17 M-CHY 12 oz cherrywood, sliced $19

As Allan Benton explains, “The secret is that there is no secret. This is the way bacon was made for years.” To do that, he dry cures heritage Berkshire pork bellies with salt and brown sugar for a full month, then smokes over hickory for 3 whole days. The exceptionally long curing and smoking times make for exceptionally flavorful, memorable flavor that’s a confluence of smoke, salt, and sweet all at once. Our most intense bacon by a country mile. M-BBT 1 lb sliced $20

Fourth-generation farmer Greg Gunthorp not only cures his own bacon—he also raises all the heritage-breed Duroc pigs himself on his pasture-based northern Indiana farm. His pigs spend their lives rooting around outside without antibiotics, hormones, growth promotants or any other modern “improvements.” Greg dry cures the bacon for a week with salt and celery powder, then smokes it over hickory logs for 12 hours. Lightly smoky, a little sweet and all the way delicious. M-HKD 1 lb sliced $18

GONE FISHIN’ the Crown Jewel Ortiz Tunas from Biscay 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 by hand 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.

Maussane Olive Oil

Peranzana Olive Oil

Alziari Olive Oil

Agrumato Lemon Oil

This is a unique oil that’s got one of the most dedicated followings I’ve ever witnessed. Maussane is made using the old-fashioned Provençal fruité noir, or “black fruity” method. Instead of picking olives green and pressing immediately, Maussane is picked late, when the olives have ripened to near-black, and they are left to ferment a few days. While many oils were pressed this way in the past, early picking and pressing is the norm today. This makes Maussane stand out. It has virtually none of the grassy bitterness that you may find in other oils. A rich, golden, buttery nectar with a distinctive herbal character no other oil can match, it sings on fish, on salads, even on popcorn. One of its fans told me, “If you love olives, you’ll want to marry this oil.” O-MAU 500 ml $40

Zingerman’s Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made by Marina Colonna on her ancient estate in Italy’s Molise region, 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. A decade ago, after I visited Marina Colonna’s farm, we selected from the dozen or so olive varietals she grows and presses separately and chose this one for a bottling she’d do just for us. Every year we’ve tasted again. Every year we’ve chosen the same varietal. Peranzana makes a lovable, delicious, authentic oil. You can use it in your kitchen to marinate, to dress, to douse, and to liven up just about any dish. It shines on beans, raw vegetables and justgrilled meats. O-ZIN 500 ml $29

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

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. O-AGR 200 ml bottle $36

The Unequaled Balsamic Vinegars of La Vecchia Dispensa While we carry different vinegars and olive oils from different farms and acetaias, we only carry one family's everyday balsamic. 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 outstanding balsamics under the name La Vecchia Dispensa. And while I've probably tasted a hundred balsamics since we started carrying theirs a decade and a half ago, none have come close in terms of balance and flavor. Although many believe 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 Vecchia Dispensa. They have a legion of followers who return to them again and again.

This Champagne vinegar starts with Pinot Noir grapes, slowly converted into vinegar in wooden barrels using the traditional Orleans method. The result, in this case, is a lower acidity, bright and fruit vinegar that’s great in a tomato and cucumber salad, in vinaigrettes, or to deglaze a pan. V-CPN 375 ml bottle $16

The fresh-pressed juice of Ugni Blanc grapes is reduced in copper kettles, then aged in oak barrels formerly used to age Cognac. This vinegar is smooth, complex, a little sweet with a finish that seems to linger for hours. It’s light on the tongue and versatile in the kitchen. V-CGN 200 ml bottle $39

ZINGERMAN’S BAKE

classic loaves PaesanO

SourdOUGH

Jewish Rye

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. B-PAE 1½ lb loaf $9.50

The crisp, crackly crust, moist honeycombed interior and that trademark sour tang will tickle your tongue. We ship them to San Franciscans across the country— even to some living near the Golden Gate. B-SDR 1½ lb round $9.50

This is rye like my grandparents ate in Eastern Europe, made with plenty of freshly milled 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. B-RYE 1½ lb loaf $9.50

SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Farm Bread

Country Miche

Dinkelbrot

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 round $18 B-FRM-LOF 1½ lb loaf $9.50

“Miche” is French for loaf and typically refers to the large size and round shape in the style of traditional French country bread. Bigger loaves have bigger flavor, a moister crumb and longer staying power. Ours is made from a freshly stone milled multi-grain mix of Michigan wheat, rye, buckwheat, and spelt flour, all naturally leavened by its own unique starter. Deep and complex flavor. B-MCH giant 4 lb round $28 B-MCH-A 2 lb loaf $15

Whole grain, freshly milled spelt and rye loaf made with loads of sunflower seeds. Dense, moist, delicious, different from most of the breads we bake whose origins tend to be French and Italian. Excellent for sandwiches. I enjoy devouring loaves armed only with good butter and sometimes a toaster. B-DNK 1½ lb loaf $14

sweet loaves Pecan Raisin

chocolate sourdough

A chocolate lover’s fantasy come true— the best Belgian and French chocolate and dozens of dried Michigan cherries. A few minutes in the oven, the chocolate chunks begin melting, the aroma of cocoa fills the air. Spread it with just a hint of sweet butter or set a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of a warm slice. You’ll be sitting in front of the most decadent dessert you've had in years. B-CHO 1¼ lb loaf $18

This bread has been like a chain reaction—someone serves it for brunch, and the next week their guests are calling us and buying it for themselves. Calling it dense is an understatement: a half pound of big, juicy Red Flame raisins and toasted pecans are baked into every loaf. The New York Times says our Pecan Raisin Bread "redefines the category." B-PEC 1¼ lb loaf $18

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. B-XSB 1 lb loaf $12

Peppered Bacon Farm

greEn chilI & chedDAR

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 heaping helping of Parmigiano Reggiano in every loaf, along with a load of cracked Zingerman's 5 Star 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. B-PEP 1 lb loaf $18

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 Zingerman's 5 Star 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. B-BAC ¾ lb loaf $16

I love this bread: savory, lusty, delicious and dangerously close to addictive. Softly spicy, fire-roasted New Mexico green chilis 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. B-CHI 1¼ lb loaf $16

Not sending in sympathy? No problem, we can remove the identifying label.

Zingerman's Reuben has been our top-selling sandwich since our doors opened on the corner of Detroit Street and Kingsley in 1982. It's a soul-filling combination of corned beef, Swiss, homemade Russian dressing and sauerkraut that, when properly prepared at home, is a show-stopping meal. If you know someone who loves real deli fare, sending this gift will cement your status as the most clever, generous friend anyone could have. Some assembly is required, but considering it has been known to make adults weep in appreciation, we think it’s worth it.

blowout sale Everyday Aged Balsamic Vinegars from La Vecchia Dispensa Fifty years ago, as word started to get out about the delicious vinegar found in every home around Modena, Italy, entrepreneurs looking to make a quick buck looked for shortcuts to make cheap balsamic and sell it for a profit. Years of aging in wooden barrels were out, and various additives were in. Unfortunately, with those changes, most of the flavor was out, too. But in the town of Castelvetro, just southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni, her husband Marino Tintori, and their son Simone make balsamics using traditional methods, including lots of local grape must and years of barrel aging. The result is a range of beautifully balanced balsamics, perfectly poised between sweet and tart. We’ve been selling them for over a decade, and they have a legion of followers who return to them again and again.

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

Tradizionali Balsamics from Acetaia del Cristo Balsamic vinegar has been made in attics all around Modena, Italy, for centuries. Balsamic barrels were (and still are!) made to celebrate the birth of a daughter, and later used as her dowry. Such a precious resource was eaten only rarely, and then only on the richest of foods: sizzling roast meats or sumptuous stuffed pastas. Today, though, practically all balsamic on the shelf bears only a fleeting resemblance to these treasured family heirlooms. Our balsamics from Acetaia del Cristo in San Prospero, just north of Modena, Italy, are the traditional product, aged for decades, judged in a blind tasting to make sure they meet the local standards of excellence. Only a tiny amount is released each year, so our quantities are very limited.

The regal, Rare ones Tradizionali Balsamics from Acetaia del Cristo These are the vinegars about which legends have been woven. Tested by a panel of judges, the qualifiers in Modena are graded gold and white. During the decades-long aging process, the vinegar is shifted from barrels of one type of wood to the next. Cherry, chestnut, oak and mulberry all leave their imprint on the flavor of the vinegar. The result is an almost unbelievable concentration of sweet-sour flavor in a dense, intense, brown-black vinegar that hints of berries, grapes, vanilla. There is nothing like it in the world. An amazing treat you'll always remember. All traditional balsamics from Modena are bottled in Ferrari designer Giorgio Guigiaro's streamlined, sexy bottle, then gift boxed. They may all look the same, but the vinegar is not. We buy ours from Acetaia del Cristo. I think their vinegars are consistently fantastic—and the juniper aged version is unique.
