NEW YEAR 2018

Chocolate Raisin Babka You don’t have to be Nostrodamus to have seen this coming: Chocolate Raisin Babka is the #1 new product of 2017. I could have called it after the first taste test back in the spring. Ever since the master bakers at Zingerman’s Bakehouse gave our babka a flavor update worthy of the new millennium we knew it was going to be a hit. Rich with butter, swirling with chocolate and cinnamon, and studded with golden sultana raisins, our modern babka bursts with chocolatey sweetness. It wipes away any memories of dry, lifeless babka from your childhood.

No doubt this babka will earn a new generation of fans. So congratulations Babka, the pastry star of 2017!

Wrapped in tissue and gift boxed.

Bacon Pimento Cheese

Pecan Sorghum Butter

Onsa’s Olive Oil

Take our classic pimento cheese spread, a salty/tangy/spicy mix of raw milk Cabot Vermont Cheddar, Hellmann’s mayo, pimento peppers and spices.

Now spike it with Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon and bam! You got yourself a top flavor of 2017. Slather on a burger, mix into some mac and cheese, or just simply sweep it up to your mouth on celery ribs or pretzels.

C-BPM 6 oz tub $13

So here’s the thing: I don’t even like pecans (don’t tell my boss!) but this pecan sorghum butter easily makes my list of top food finds of 2017—maybe even of the decade. Made by Blackberry Farm in Tennessee, it’s got this deep, earthy, toasty flavor from the nuts that’s balanced with the smooth, dark sweetness of the sorghum molasses. It would be awesome on a sandwich or even drizzled over ice cream, but honestly, I mostly just eat it by the spoonful.

P-PSB 7.75 oz jar $30

When it comes to olive oil, the highlight of 2017 is Onsa’s extra virgin olive oil. The oil is made by Majid Mahjoub in Tunisia from chetoui olives, and named for Majid’s wife, Onsa. In a small section of Majid’s orchard, the olives are allowed to remain on the tree a bit longer before harvesting. Usually olives are harvested young, but when they’re more mature it lends a softer, sweeter quality to the oil (it’s still got a healthy, bitter, peppery kick). First time in the US and exclusive to Zingerman’s.

Ibérico de Bellota Bacon

Custom Cheese Box

Mini Scone Boxes

Ibérico pigs are a heritage breed that roam free in the oak forests in southern Spain. In the autumn they gobble up acorns (called bellotas in Spanish) as quickly as they fall from the trees. The acorn diet creates incredible fat that melts in your mouth in a way that seems completely surreal. The most famous example of the meat is dry-aged Ibérico de bellota ham (online), but my current favorite is lusciously rich Ibérico de bellota bacon. Fire up the skillet and get ready to accept your award for cooking the best brunch of the century.

M-IBB 8 oz bacon $18

The DIY trend hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down, and our customers have loved this top flavor of 2017. Play cheesemonger-for-a-day and curate a selection from the shelves of our cheese cave: goat’s milk, sheep’s milk, cow’s milk, mountain, domestic, clothbound and blue. Select your three half-pound wedges and we’ll pack them in our fun, cartooned gift box with a loaf of our crusty, tangy Farm Bread or a box of artisan crackers.

2017 was the year of getting smaller, at least in our little corner of the pastry world. These mini scones are still made with fresh butter, cream and just enough flour to hold them together, they’re just half the size.

Mountain Violet Sticky Rice

Cod-Stuffed Piquillo Peppers

Mountain Violet Rice is a deep purple color that bursts with vibrancy when you cook it. But even more striking than the color is the aroma: it’s bright, almost berry sweet. That berry-bright flavor is balanced with deeper, winey notes when you cook it. Those sweet, fruity flavors are unlike any other rice I’ve tried. It’s grown in the steep terraces of Barlig, Mountain Province in the Philippines, where it’s traditionally used in desserts. It’s also great for bright salads and soups.

P-VRC 1 lb bag $12

2017’s big hit for tapas lovers. Spanish piquillo peppers are more flavorful than just about any other roasted pepper, bold enough to handle being stuffed and sauced. Here the stuffing is luxurious salt-cured cod, the staple of the Iberian peninsula, soaked and cooked to silky smoothness. The peppers are set into a simple rustic tomato sauce that you can mop up with some great bread. Just open and serve.

Chocolate Peppermint Creams from England I love seeing these on our list of 2017’s top flavors, and so does my daughter.

They’re a family favorite for us because we’re suckers for dark chocolate wrapped around luscious and smooth mint cream. These are peppermint confections with a plus—the mint is grown on the farm where they make the candies, picked so fresh and vibrant they practically hum.

The Balsamic Vinegars of La Vecchia Dispensa Stock up your pantry, your neighbor’s pantry, or buy some future birthday gifts.

Prices good at Zingerman's Mail Order and Delicatessen.

The balsamic we get from La Vecchia Dispensa is made by the Tintori family. When I visited, Simone Tintori showed me around the acetaia—the space where the balsamic is made. Their acetaia is a 500-year-old stone tower. It was built to be a prison. These days, the cells hold balsamic barrels, not criminals—but they’re still accessed via centuries-old heavy wooden doors that are at least six inches thick.

The towers holds a dozen sets of balsamic barrels. A set is called a batteria and typically includes five barrels. Each batteria is made by the grandfather when a new daughter is born into the family. The balsamic made in the barrels will become a part of her dowry, but they’ll remain with the family’s collection even after she is married. The dozen batterie in the Tintori family’s collection represent a dozen daughters over the last few generations.

Each batteria bears the name of the daughter who owns them. I saw Antonietta, Guendolina, Roberta.

Many of the barrels are decades old. As we walked through the acetaia, Simone pointed out batterie belonging to his sister, his aunts, his grandmother.

The same barrels made for Simone’s grandmother when she was a toddler are still in use today. They’re probably at their best now, having decades of use. When you put vinegar in a wooden barrel, the barrel doesn’t just flavor the vinegar. The vinegar also flavors the barrel. It’s an ongoing virtuous cycle, a vinegar-flavored barrel gives a different, more complex flavor to the vinegar than the brand new barrel did. A well-made barrel can be used for as long as a century before it falls apart.

8 year aged 10 year aged Bright, tart, and ideal for vinaigrettes. A kitchen standard.

Taste them alL Gift Box of Four Balsamics

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 in Modena, Italy, range in age from 10 to 30 years. Nestled in a beautiful box, they make for a stunning gift.

The regal, Rare ones

Tradizionali Balsamics from Modena

These are the vinegars about which legends have been woven. Buy one for a grand occasion. A golden anniversary. A wedding. A newborn. An election win. Tested by a panel of judges, the qualifiers in Modena are graded gold and white. Then they return to the wood for another five, ten, twenty, or a hundred years or more. During the aging process, the vinegar is shifted from 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. Only a tiny amount is released each year, in elegant glass flasks. Let loose a few drops on ripe strawberries fresh from the market. 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 Erika Barbieri, one of only a handful of female balsamic makers. I think her vinegars are consistently fantastic—and the juniper aged version is unique.

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.

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.

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.”

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Platonic IdeAL

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.

hapPy New Year! the flavorful-Est fast foOd Il Mongetto Tomato Sauce At the grocery store, you already have a couple dozen pasta sauces to choose from. Why add a few more to the mix? Il Mongetto tomato sauces are filled with tomatoes, shallots, celery, carrots, olive oil from Umbrian maker Alfredo Mancianti and a pinch of sea salt. They’re made by the serenely insightful Santopietro family in the shadows of the Italian Alps. The flavors are complex and compelling in ways that I haven’t come across in any other jarred sauces. Keep some around for that night you don’t want to cook. Pasta with Il Mongetto sauce is the best fast food I know.

“Everyone should eat Martelli pasta at least once to know how great dried pasta should taste.”

Corby Kummer, The Atlantic

this is how it should taste Martelli Pastas

The Martellis do everything right that most commercial pasta makers do wrong. They use only the hardest durum wheat flour, extrude their pasta through traditional bronze dies which makes the pasta grip the sauce, and take their time drying the pasta. The result is a chewy texture and incredible, intense flavor. With Martelli pasta, a spaghetti dinner isn’t just a throwaway Tuesday night meal when you’re too tired to cook something elaborate. It’s an event to celebrate.

flAvor amplifier Roi Olive Oil Extra virgin olive oil is a staple for good cooking. Practically everything on the market is made with oils blended from who knows how many farms. Blending like that can create a consistent product, but usually not an interesting one. Estate oils, which are grown, picked, and pressed into oil by a single farm, have more variability and more intriguing flavors that amplify and accentuate your cooking. Roi is my top pick for a great estate olive oil for anyone making their first foray into the world of good olive oil. It’s made exclusively from Taggiasca olives, known for their delicate, approachable flavors. A superb everyday oil.

Valserena Parmigiano Reggiano

Those little green cans labeled “100% Parmesan”? There’s a good chance it’s zero percent parmesan and at least some percent wood pulp. But even if it’s all real cheese, it’s been sitting around drying out for who knows how long. Grating your own parm from a hunk of cheese at the moment you want it makes for a dramatic jump up in quality. But all chunks of Parmigiano Reggiano aren’t created equal. 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 of brown Bruna Sola cows, a breed with more butterfat content in their milk. More fat makes for more flavor. 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.

Early Glow Strawberry Preserves

An awful lot of preserves list sugar as their first ingredient, which covers up the fact that they use sub-par fruit. American Spoon’s Early Glow Strawberry Preserves are 60% fruit and sweetened with cane sugar. When you spoon it over toast, you might notice a few whole tiny Early Glow strawberries. They’re a bit fickle about ripening, but they have the ultimate in strawberry flavor. The aroma is amazing. The aroma is amazing! The flavor lingers long.

Raye’s Yellow Down East Schooner Mustard

Tasting Raye’s yellow mustard for the first time is like getting your first pair of glasses after years of squinting: you may have thought everything was fine before, but suddenly you realize how much better life can be. Yes, mustard can do that. Unlike most makers that use modern industrial equipment that heats the mustard seed and drives off aroma, Raye’s still slowly grinds their mustard using quartz grindstones. The slower, cooler processing produces a super smooth texture and crystal clear flavors that make sandwiches, hot dogs, pretzels and more that much better.

If you do just one thing to up your cooking ante this year, switch from pre-ground pepper to whole peppercorns.

And if you want to really revolutionize your culinary game, switch to better peppercorns. This custom blend of five black peppercorns— Tellicherry Reserve, Mlamala, Rajakumari, Tellicherry EB, and Shimoga—is carefully sourced by the spice trekking de Vienne family from small growers in southwest India. The aroma is piney, floral, minty, with a hint of juniper. The flavor is complex with a gentle heat that grows as it sits on your tongue.

Keep it on your dining table and your kitchen counter; use it everywhere.
