Pecan Smoked Heritage 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.

Clementines in Chocolate from Italy A rarely seen specialty from Calabria. The Favella Ranch is near Sibari in Southern Italy, which, if you’re up on ancient Greek history, you might recognize as the place where the Sybarites lived and ate famously well. These clementines in chocolate fit right into the Sybarites’ hedonistic tradition: spectacular Calabrian oranges, soaked in a constantly refreshed bath of simple syrup for three weeks, cut in quarters, smothered in dark chocolate. Each piece is the size of a large chocolate truffle. If you slide it in your mouth all at once, the luscious orange syrup won’t drip down your chin. Better yet, be a Sybarite. Let it drip.

Angelina Drinking Chocolate from Paris Angelina, the jewelbox tea salon on the Rue de Rivoli, serves the best hot chocolate in Paris. It’s incredibly rich, with deep, intense chocolate flavor. If a quick jaunt to Paris for a cup of hot chocolate isn’t an option, the next best option is to make it at home for yourself. Choose from two versions: classic cocoa mix to make with your own milk, or bottles of molten chocolate ready to heat and sip (illustrated).

Spanish Chocolate Dipped Figs These once unheard of figs have become one of our most popular gifts. Tender, sweeter than usual Parito figs are dried, then given a double dose of chocolate: first they’re stuffed with chocolate ganache, then they’re enrobed in a layer of chocolate. Each piece is individually wrapped. They’re as good as they sound, perhaps better, and beat your mallbought chocolates any day. The small sizes make great stocking stuffers, the bigger boxes perform amazing feats as host gifts. The gift tin (illustrated at right) makes a gorgeous keepsake. Choose from a few different flavors.

Dark Chocolate First is the classic: dark chocolate covered figs, filled with a soft chocolate truffle cream with a hint of liqueur.

Panettone 5 ways

You know it’s Christmas in Italy when the panettoni 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 Contessa. We’ve had great traditional Italian panettone every Christmas since our doors opened in 1982.

Chocolate and Fig Panettone A classic panettone cake that hides luscious pockets of tender figs and bits of melt-in-yourmouth Italian chocolate. Wrapped and ribboned in typically gorgeous fashion, it makes a beautiful gift for a chocolate-and-fruit fan.

Traditional Panettone

Almond Nougat Panettone

Panettone Balsamico

If Italy had to elect a national Christmas dessert, this would be the top candidate.

The texture is as fluffy as a pillow, the candied citrus-studded dough peels off in strips like cotton candy. What you can’t finish after dinner makes fantastic French toast.

P-ANE 750 g cake, serves 10–12 $55

Chunks of almond nougat, a confection of honey, egg whites, sugar, and almonds, are folded into the dough of this cake.

When it bakes, the nougat melts into the cake, infusing it with the aromas of honey and almonds. Lovely with tea, coffee, or topped with a scoop of vanilla gelato.

P-APN 500 g cake, serves 6–8 $60

Balsamic is laced through this cake, forming a ribbon of dark glaze. Instead of finding panettone’s traditional gems of dried fruit you’ll discover veins of cherry-sweet, luscious caramel. The gift box is vintage Italian graphic design, classically gorgeous.

Robert Lambert’s

Show Stopping Fruit Cakes 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 Fruit Cake

Dark Rare Citrus Fruit Cake

Vintage Fruit Cakes

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. 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 in a muslin bag.

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 Port, and candied ginger. Then, wait for it...he soaks it all in bourbon. Comes in a muslin bag.

If you already consider fruit cake a joke the idea of a vintage fruit cake must seem like a real marketer’s whopper. Selling last year’s fruit cakes? Yes, that’s exactly what we’re doing. 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 aficionado's treat. Gift boxed.

English Christmas Pudding From the culture that brought you fruitcake comes another much-scorned holiday food tradition: Christmas pudding. But just as there’s good fruitcake and disappointing fruitcake, the same goes for pudding. This particularly good pudding comes to us from Thursday Cottage in Essex. They craft it in the classic Victorian 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, citrus peels, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, another touch of Cognac, and just enough flour to hold it all together. 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.

THU 25 NOV 18th Century Turkeys for the 21st Century Thanksgiving Table Heritage Turkeys from Judd Culver

Nearly all turkeys raised today are a modern breed called Broad Breasted Whites. They were bred to produce a lot of white breast meat as quickly as possible. They’re great at doing that, but not good at much else. Perhaps the worst of all is the flavor: they taste like salt and water, with very little turkey flavor to mention.

Not so with these turkeys. They are heritage Kelly Bronze birds, rich with flavor and never mushy in texture.

Farmer Judd Culver raises these birds on pasture in Crozet, Virginia. He prepares them in a style called “New York dressed.” It’s the old way turkeys were processed on farms. They are cleaned without water, hung to age like steak. These might seem like small differences, but the flavor will blow you away. This turkey is so tender, so flavorful, it’s so different from what we’re used to it shouldn’t even be called by the same name.

None of these flavors are extreme. This is the kind of turkey that everyone at the table is going to enjoy. For many, it’ll be the first time they’ve tasted the real thing, and they’ll be fighting for seconds.

Roadhouse Bread

Cranberry Pecan Bread

Developed for our restaurant, Zingerman’s Roadhouse, and now a local favorite. It’s based on an early New England recipe, made by combining freshly-milled rye flour and cornmeal with wheat. It’s got great crust and a soft, chewy center that has a slight sweetness from dark molasses.

B-ROA 1½ lb loaf $11

Loaded with dried cranberries and toasted pecans, this loaf is the kissing cousin to our extremely popular Pecan Raisin Bread (page 18). 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.

Pie Central Toasted Pecan Pie 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. Each serves 10–12.

Cranberry Walnut Pie

Chocolate chess is a traditional chocolate custard pie. Think of really great chocolate pudding all wrapped up in a crispy butter crust, and you’re almost there. We don’t skimp on the chocolate part—it’s all Mindo dark chocolate, made locally in Dexter, Michigan. A velvety smooth, extremely rich dessert that’s got long-lasting flavor.

A-CHS in cartoon box $60

Brown sugar custard, made with real butter, vanilla and Mauritian brown sugar, is mixed with a generous amount of rich, toasted walnuts and tawny, tangy cranberries inside an all-butter crust. Nutty, sweet, rich and just a little tart, it’s as beautiful as it is addictive.

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.

These confections were made right here in Ann Arbor, where the marzipan masters at Marzipops have shaped the candy into Stars of David and hand painted them with blue and silver stripes.

The only difference between our noodle kugel and the version made by co-founder Ari Weinzweig’s grandmother is we make ours with much better ingredients. Nostalgia aside, even Ari admits ours tastes far better than what his bubbe made for him when he was a kid. Like a bread pudding made with pasta instead of bread, ours is made with egg noodles from Al Dente in Whitmore Lake, farm cheese from Zingerman’s Creamery, plenty of plump Red Flame raisins, and a generous does of vanilla, it’s blended together and baked to a golden brown. Great for breakfast, lunch, dessert or really any time you just want something good to eat. Great cold, even better warmed up in the oven.

It doesn’t get more classic then the knish: a Jewish pastry stuffed with savory filling wrapped in flaky, buttery dough. Originating in Eastern Europe, the knish came to America with the Ashkenazi Jewish immigrants who settled in cities like New York around the turn of the 20th century. We’ve been making them at Zingerman’s Deli since we opened our doors in 1982. The inside is made of mashed Yukon Gold potatoes, onions, and herbs. The outside is a tender, flaky, handmade crust crafted from fresh farm cheese from Zingerman’s Creamery. Ready to eat, cold or hot. We like ours served hot with a side of good mustard.

The second oil comes from Frantoio Muraglia, in a bottle adorned with a swirl of vibrant, bright stripes.

Either bottle makes a stunning gift, and the oils inside can stand up to beans, pasta, red meats, or fresh tomatoes smashed on crusty toast.

A spicy sweet German tradition

Amaretti del Chiostro Cookies For almost three centuries, way up in Lombardy near the Swiss border, the Lazzaroni family has made this simple, unique almond cookie. The secret ingredient is apricot “kernels” (here we call them “pits,” but the Italians have such a nice way with language). They add a tiny edge of refreshing bitterness to the crispy, crunchy, nutty cookie. A bright, fun gift tin holds about twenty almond cookies, each individually wrapped in beautiful wax bakery paper.

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 finished cookies are hand glazed and studded with almonds (classic variety) or cloaked in dark chocolate. Each tin includes three classic and two chocolate cookies. 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. The tin, though, with foxes walking through a snowy forest scene with foxes, will be a keepsake for years to come.

Coffee Cakes Our Best Sellers

Coffee cakes have been our best selling gift since we started mailing food in the early 1990s. Having tried a truckload of coffee cakes in the past two decades I can say quite honestly that I haven’t tasted one I like better. I think the same goes for a lot of our customers—many folks return year after year to send this gift and this gift only. It’s substantial, it’s honest, it’s straightforward, and it’s really good. I guarantee you really can taste the difference.

SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE

This is a Zingerman’s classic and perennially our most popular gift: rich, moist Sour Cream Coffee Cake made with organic flour, loaded with Indonesian cinnamon and toasted walnuts, baked in a traditional bundt pan. It’s very impressive and extremely delicious. And it lasts. In theory, a week or two after delivery, wrapped, it’ll still be soft and scrumptious, melting in the mouths of a hungry crew. Personally, I’ve never seen one withstand the onslaught of the hungry for more than an hour.

Beigli

Beigli (bay-glee) is Hungary’s favorite Christmas sweet. It’s a yeasted dough rolled up with a sweet filling made of finely chopped walnuts. The outside crackles and shines. Inside, there’s a familiar swirl that will remind you of a cinnamon roll standing on its side. The buttery dough and rich honey walnut filling blend perfectly together, balancing its sweetness. The dough has a satisfying chew. Baked by hand at Zingerman’s Bakehouse, often shaped with a dimple that dips down in the middle. Comes in a muslin gift bag. Serves 6–8.

Babkas

Babka is a sweet loaf, both fluffy and rich, kind of like a light textured coffee cake with a dense filling swirled throughout. The master bakers at Zingerman’s Bakehouse make two flavors of babka. The first is swirling with chocolate and cinnamon and studded with juicy golden sultana raisins.

The second is balanced between sweet and tart, loaded with earthy dates, luscious figs and bright pomegranate molasses, and topped with slivered almonds. Wrapped in tissue and gift boxed, each serves 6–8.

Pain d’Epices Honey Cake Though “pain d’épices” translates from French literally as “spice bread,” it’s more commonly called “honey cake” in English. The name is fitting. This loaf-shaped cake, made in Burgundy in the heart of France’s honey cake homeland, is sweetened with a generous dose of honey, which balances beautifully with the tangy rye-based cake.

Lightly spiced with ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and more, the cake is floral and delicate. Perfect alongside tea or as a lighter dessert option. Comes nestled in a printed muslin gift bag.

classic breads SourdOUGH

PaesanO 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

Made with only organic wheat flour, water, sea salt, and our nearly three-decade old sourdough starter—and plenty of time. Making a loaf takes 18 hours. 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.

The base bread for our reuben and many other sandwiches.

Peppered Bacon Farm

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

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 fifteen 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 $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.

Almost anyone can make a cinnamon roll smell good while it’s baking, even among the cell phone kiosks at the mall. Unfortunately, most have little more than aroma to offer. You won’t taste much beyond sugar and cinnamon. The real challenge is to fashion a cinnamon roll that tastes as good as it smells.

These fit the bill. Warm them up, break one open and put your nose up close. You’ll smell sweet butter, Indonesian cinnamon, real vanilla. But the real treat is next. Take one bite. That’s all you’ll need to forget the litany of cinnamon roll disappointments life has dealt you. With serving instructions.

Thick, creamy, elegant, luscious.

Eating gelato is an event, a special occasion that borders on a religious experience for ice cream connoisseurs. At Zingerman’s Creamery, our gelato makers traveled to Italy to learn to make gelato from the masters. Then we made it our own with all-American flavors. We start with fresh milk from Calder Dairy—one of the last farmstead dairies in Michigan—and mix it with organic Demerara sugar and an array of other good ingredients to churn out this Italian-style ice cream with direct, intense flavors. Assemble a collection of five pints of your favorite flavors.

Pistachio Vanilla Brittle We know good brittle. Zingerman’s Candy Company has been making it for more than decade and it’s the finest peanut brittle around.

Dark Chocolate Honeycomb Candy Honeycomb candy has been my absolute favorite confection since I was a kid, except we called it seafoam. Some call it sponge toffee or, in New Zealand, hokey pokey. You might call it something else too, but a confection by any other name would still taste as sweet—and as crunchy, airy, chocolatey, and fun. This sublime edition comes from the craft chocolatiers at NeoCocoa. They set a mix of honey and sugar to boil then cool it quickly, trapping crunchy caramelized bubbles inside. They cover the broken up pieces in 72% dark chocolate making bite-size treats you won’t wanna share. At least I didn’t.

c.s. lewis’ favorite sweEt Turkish Delight with Double Roasted Pistachios

I remember reading “The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe” as a kid and being flabbergasted when Edmund gave up his siblings to the White Witch for plates of Turkish Delight. I’d never had Turkish Delight, but I figured it must taste amazing for a kid to sell his family down the river just to have some.

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. Chewy, crunchy, nutty and sweet, you don’t have to make a deal with the devil to enjoy this traditional treat. Comes in a handsome blue tin.

OUR GUARANTEE If you experience a problem with one of our products, customer service, shipping, or you just don’t like how it tastes, please let us know. We’ll do whatever it takes to make it right.

When’s the last time you sent a business gift for the holiday and the recipient called you back to say how great it tasted? How they wanted more? How you must be the smartest, best-informed, most well-dressed gift giver they know? I promise at least one of those comments will come your way. Our food has that kind of effect.

Virtual events, Real food PRIVATE, CUSTOM VIRTUAL EVENTS FOR YOUR TEAM OR CLIENT MEETINGS Make work +74% more exciting Thank your crew, break up the next four-hour conference call about EBITDA, or—dare we say it?—perhaps even have a bit of fun with your cohort.

How it works 1. Planning: Our Virtual Event Concierge will work with you to pick your time and date, the foods you’d like (think cheese tastings, reuben sandwich making classes, or whatever else you can dream up), and help coordinate all of the logistics.

2. Size limits: We usually keep each event to 50 people at most. If you have more than that we’re happy to host multiple sessions.

“We love ordering corporate gifts from Zingermans. Unlike ordering a [BLANKEDY BLANK] package where everything feels stale…the baskets we get from you are fresh and full of goodies people will actually eat!”

STACEY, EAST LANSING, MI

3. Timeline: From our experience, it usually takes at least two weeks from the point of “Let’s do this!” to having the event.

4. Before the event: Your team members will get their shipments a couple of days before the event and, soon after, links to the Zoom invite and any pre-event instructions.

5. During the event: Our host and chat moderator will guide you through the virtual event where you will taste, learn about, and maybe even cook great food. You can invite us in for five minutes or up to an hour.

6. Pricing: The cost is the food (usually somewhere between $75–$200 per person), plus a $300 host fee.

Colleague Appreciation Gift Box Hearing “thanks!” is nice. Eating “thanks!” is even better. Show your colleagues how much you appreciate them for that time they got all hands on deck to grab that low-hanging fruit, or for consistently circling back to thinking outside the box, or for their laser beam focus on herding all those cats with synergy. Our fun, colorful gift box comes stuffed with a walnut-studded Magic Brownie and a no-nut Black Magic Brownie, plus three Mini Cookies: Oatmeal Raisin, Ginger Jump Up Molasses, and Chocolate Chunk.

STEAKS & CHOPS

Heritage Breed Pork Chop Flight

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. These strip steaks from Carman Ranch are deeply savory, with earthy flavor and a great mineral tang. Ships frozen.

M-STP-2 2 steaks, 10–12 oz each $70 M-STP-4 4 steaks, 10–12 oz each $125

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 three, like in this flight of pork chops. Here’s your chance to set up a taste-off with friends among the most delicious chops you’ll find in America. Our airborne pork feast includes two each of three different breeds, six chops total: Red Wattle, known for its sweet flavor and meltingly delicious fat; Duroc, known for its complexity; and Ibérico, Spain’s iconic breed now raised in Georgia. In total, the box includes over four pounds of supremely flavorful pork, a one of a kind experience, ready for grilling. Ships frozen.

BACON!

Nueske’s Applewood

Benton’s Tennessee Bacon

Hickory Smoked Duroc Bacon

There’s a reason this 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.

M-BAC 1 lb sliced thickly $17

The most intense bacon we carry. Allan Benton starts with heritage Berkshire pork and dry cures it with salt and brown sugar for a full month, then smokes it over hickory for 48 hours. It’s powerful, and polarizing—people tend to either totally love it or think it’s way too much.

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. Lightly smoky, a little sweet and all the way delicious.

French Comté from Fort St. Antoine

France’s most renowned mountain cheese, selected for us by Essex Street Cheese Co. from the caves of legendary affineur Maison Marcel Petite. Fudgy texture, well balanced, never bitey flavor, with a buttery, hazelnut taste that grows on the tongue and slowly expands to fill your entire mouth. A cheese that makes you want to come back to eat it again and again.

extra AgEd

Swiss Antique Gruyère 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.

English Farmhouse Cheddar

milkshaKe chEesE

Dutch Brabander Goat Gouda From Southern Holland in the province of Brabant, home to many of the country's goat farms (goat's milk cheese is actually more popular than cow's milk in the Netherlands these days). Made from the pasteurized milk of Saanen goats, it's fresh tasting, with notes of caramel and cream.

C-GGO by the pound $35

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.

the king of cheEse

Giorgio Cravero’s Parmigiano Reggiano Giorgio Cravero’s family has been aging Parmigiano Reggiano in Bra, Italy since 1855. He focuses on soft, sweet flavors, the kind of Parmesan you want to eat all on its own (though it’s excellent for grating over pasta, too). The cheese we buy comes exclusively from the San Pietro dairy, located high in the hills above Modena. The diverse herbs and grasses at that high altitude makes for especially flavorful milk, which in turn makes for especially flavorful cheese—a quality noted by this Parmesan’s rare designation as a Prodotto di Montagna.

no wax, NO problem

Essex Manchego

Essex Manchego is one of Spain’s only farmhouse, raw milk, unwaxed Manchegos. Unwaxed refers to the rind and for the most part, cheese rinds seem to be one of those cheesemaking details that only get the attention of cheesemongers and makers. They have a tremendous effect on flavor and texture, though.

The active cultures in cheese cause it to breathe. When the rind is waxed it holds those effects in, often resulting in off-flavored, harsh tasting cheeses. Unwaxed Essex Manchego, on the other hand, has a lovely, dry crumble and never tastes bitey. It goes down smooth, with the unmistakable sweetness of sheep’s milk and a long savory finish that pairs well with almonds and plums and, of course, Spanish ham.

C-EMA by the pound $40 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

hip name, traditional cheese Funky Monk The Trappist monks of Belgium influenced the world of beer and cheese in ways we’re still enjoying today. One method of ripening cheese is to “wash” the outside of the wheel with a brine or other liquid. The Trappist monks washed their cheese with the beer they made, imparting the flavors of one into the other. Traditionally these cheeses were intense, with strong flavors and aromas to match. Yet this monk drops that funk. Cheesemaker Johan Deweer (not a monk) has tempered the more boisterous characteristics of a Trappist style cheese. It’s still savory and rich, but there’s a sweetness that mellows out the sharper notes. Let the cheese breathe a bit before serving then watch it win the cheese plate.

cult classic

Maussane Olive 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.”

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.

Zingerman’s House Olive Oil Peranzana Olive Oil

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 marinade, to dress, to douse, and to liven up just about any dish. It shines on beans, raw vegetables and just-grilled meats.

Agrumato Lemon 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. 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.

vinegars balsAmic from la vecChia dIspenSA

Italian Balsamic Showstopper 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.

V-WB4 four bottles, 100 ml each $150

Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni, her husband Marino Tintori, and their son Simone 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.

Our Best SelLing tinNed fish Ortiz Tunas from Biscay

ortiz tunas Bonito Loin P-ORT

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.

michigan’s masterpiece

Fishtown Whitefish Pate

Michigan may be known as the cherry capital of the world, but this man from the Mitten picks 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 the third coast. Like other regional foods, everyone has their favorite. This smooth, creamy version from the tiny fishing village of Leland (aka Fishtown) is mine. We worked with the maker, Lori LaClair, to come up with a recipe we all think highlights the flavor of the fish and the art of the smoke. Made with fresh caught fillets of whitefish straight out of Lake Michigan, this spread is the perfect accompaniment with crackers, some fresh (or dried) cherries, and a crisp glass of cool wine.

French Picnic Gift Box

Imagine this: you spend the morning poring through the cheeses and cured meats and breads and produce in the daily market of some provincial French village, then take your bounty down to the local park for a sunny afternoon picnic. If a trip to France isn’t in the cards today, bring the fantasy to life at home with this collection of foods every bit as delectable as what you’d find in France. Our colorful box includes a loaf of Zingerman’s Farm Bread, Pork and Pistachio Pâté, a wheel of Camembert-style Green Hill Cheese, a jar of Cornichon Pickles, and a box of chocolate covered walnuts from Périgord. Makes for more than a full meal for two, or snacks for a half dozen.

Tapas Gift Box

There, tapas can start a meal or substitute for it entirely. The ingredients in this collection of open-and-serve delectables are not all Spanish, but the idea is. Eat them as the Spanish do, as evening makes its way indoors, with a glass of crisp wine. Packed by hand in our classic cartoon Zingerman’s box, including: artisan Manchego Cheese, Old Kiev Salami, Spanish Anise and Olive Oil Crispy Tortas, Marcona Almonds, Cod-Stuffed Piquillo Peppers from Basque Country and Portuguese Sardines. Serves 6–8 quite handily.

Betty Koster’s Brabander Reserve Goat Gouda Gift Set Every year Betty Koster of Amsterdam’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. Buy a pound à la carte, or go all out to taste the ultimate goat gouda banana split with a gift set that includes a full pound of Brabander Reserve Goat Gouda, Banana Jam, a box of Chocolate Covered Amarena Cherries, and a cute cow-patterned clog keychain to keep the cheesy memories alive.

Jason Hinds’ Colston Bassett Stilton Gift Set Stilton has been the traditional Christmas cheese of England for centuries. Its deep, warm flavor pacifies the chill of December. Early winter also happens to be the time of the year it tastes best, the lush summer milk cheeses having ripened for half a year or so. This fall we’ve brought in our usual stock of forty-five wheels from Neal’s Yard Dairy, London’s great cheese house. Neal’s Yard partner Jason Hinds and his team have driven up the M-11 to Colston Bassett to select wheels that have the buttery blue flavor and coveted spreadable texture we all crave. Order it by the pound, or get it boxed with stupendous, traditional pairings: our colorful, cartooned gift box includes a one pound wedge of Stilton, Spiced Plum Preserves from Blake Hill Farm in Vermont, and Caramelized Walnuts from France’s walnut-crazy Périgord region.

Andy Hatch’s Rush Creek Reserve In the fall, the team at Uplands Cheese in Dodgeville, Wisconsin use the rich, buttery milk from their own small herd of pastured Holsteins, Brown Swiss and Jersey cows to make Rush Creek Reserve. Each palm-sized wheel is wrapped in spruce bark, which helps the soft cheese hold its shape and gives it a woody, roasty, toasty note. The interior is luscious, what cheesemaker Andy refers to as “savory custard” for its consistency and punch of flavor.

Let the cheese come up to room temperature and then carefully cut off the top ‘lid’ of the cheese. The creamy, spoonable cheese inside awaits and can be served with accoutrements from crusty bread to roasted vegetables. Great with a crisp glass of white wine served before the holiday feast.

Michael Spycher’s Gruyère Master cheesemaker Michael Spycher has been making Gruyère in the tiny Swiss village of Sumiswald for nearly two decades. He makes his cheeses with milk from a dozen local farmers, each with small herds of 8-20 cows that are known by name and spend their days grazing on the Alpine grasses and flowers. Each day Michael makes 5 or 6 huge, 70-pound wheels of Gruyère. The wheels age for half a year, until the cheese has an ivory color dotted with occasional flavor crystals. You can practically taste the mountain grasses, delicate meadow flowers and alpine herbs in this balanced, never sharp cheese—so it’s no wonder it was named the 2020 world champion cheese.

Dreamy Chestnuts

Marrons Glacés from Italy Despite the French name, Marrons Glacés are an invention of Northern Italy’s Piedmont region. Having tasted a whole bunch of them over many years, I can confidently say that the ones the Bardini brothers make near the town of Cuneo are my favorites. The chestnuts are aged for a week while submerged in water in underground caves. Later, they soak in a vanilla-scented sugar syrup bath, during which time the syrup is slowly pulled into the center of the chestnut. Finally, they’re rolled in sugar and boxed. A surefire gift success with anyone of European origin and a great gift for chestnut lovers of any origin.

The Ultimate in Walnuts

SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Chocolate Covered Walnuts from France 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.

Double-Roasted Hazelnuts

D. Barbero Torrone Nougat from Piedmont 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 Piedmontese 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 the 8-inch long bar, enrobed in chocolate, makes a great stocking stuffer.

Cutest Almonds Ever Marzipan Gnomes

Marzipan, the firm, chewy confection made from almonds and sugar, is like the modeling clay of the food world. You can color and shape it to resemble just about anything imaginable, but unlike actual clay, it’s delicious, with a sweet, floral almond flavor. Take these gnomes, for instance: adorable with their tall red hats, big noses, and long, white beards, they’re every bit as scrumptious as they are cute. Packed in a gift box, they’re a fun treat for little kids and grown up kids alike.

Italian Sea Salt Chocolate and Hazelnut Cremini Truffles

Northern Italian Hazelnut Fudge

Cremini, that’s a mushroom, right? Usually yes, but not in this case. In the Piedmont region of northern Italy, a “cremino” (plural cremini) is an ultra-smooth cube of chocolate and hazelnut. These cremini come from Torino, made by bean to bar chocolatier Guido Gobino. They’re super silky smooth, each dotted with a few toasty hazelnut crumbles. The chocolate gets just a bit of an edge from the addition of sea salt.

P-SCR 16 piece box $40

I’ll admit it: I initially picked this up just because the packaging was so cute. But then I tasted it and it stopped me in my tracks. It’s outrageously good. It’s not really fudge. It’s better. From up near Alba comes a super dense, super rich block of fudgy textured chocolate that’s strewn with tons of toasted Piedmont hazelnuts.

Outrageously delicious.

Give a Fig Honey Figs from Portugal Pingo de mel figs—”honey drop”–are so named because they drip sugar when they’re ripe. Preserved by the same nuns who make our Sugarplums.

I’m pretty sure eating one made me high. Packed in a very giftable wood crate.

Figs & Walnuts from Portugal

Dried fruits and nuts are a classic Portuguese combination, an end-of-dinner staple you’ll enjoy in homes from the Algarve to the Douro. This classic is created extreme care by a woman-led, woman-run company headed by the indominatable Dona Florentina, 92 years young and still kicking fig. Her farm brushes the banks of the Tejo river in central Portugal.

There they grow walnuts and the figs — the prized honey drop “pingo de mel” variety, harvested late in summer when it’s so absurdly decadent a dew drop of honey sweet nectar drips from its eye. The figs are dried, paired with their walnut mate, the rest is history. Keep a pack stashed for an after dinner treat with friends who you’ve missed so much you don’t want the night to end.

Franco Rao’s figs are an eagerly awaited seasonal crop. Prized dotato figs are picked by hand when they are fully ripe, beginning to dry and concentrate. They’re caramelized over twenty-four hours in a low-temperature oven, a step almost no one takes because it adds extra time and expense. The impact on the flavor, however, is immense. These figs have a roasted, caramel-sweet flavor that’s irresistible. Hand packed in a ball the size of an apple, wrapped in fig leaves and twine. It’s a traditional way to store them in southern Italy, rustic and attractive. They are great with yogurt, with cheese, with ice cream.

As a gift for someone with an eye for rustic foods with real flavor, you won’t find much better. Very limited quantities.

Chocolate Covered Candied Fruits from Greece From just outside of Athens, Greece, these candied fruits are enrobed in chocolate, coated in a crackling candy shell, then decorated to look like colorful pebbles. They’re adorable enough to catch your eye, but then delicious enough to eat them anyway. Choose from two fruits: Kumquats are a small, aromatic citrus. The whole fruit, peel and all, is candied until the center is soft and gooey but the bright, tart citrus flavor still shines through the dark chocolate candy shell.

Amarena cherries are small and dark with a superb sweet-tart balance.

The whole, pitted cherries pack a punch of tart cherry flavor to contrast with the smooth, dark chocolate and candy shell.

Chocolate Covered Candied Orange Peels Calabria, in Southern Italy, is to citrus like Maine is to blueberries. The fruit they have is found elsewhere, but it’s rarely better. Oranges from here are so delicious you want to eat the peel. Especially when it’s peeled by hand, scoured of its pith, candied in a sugar bath and put in an oven at low heat for hours to slightly caramelize, then dipped into a pool of 40% cacao chocolate. From Dolci Pensieri di Calabria, a family firm that have been at this for over five decades.

Chocolate Covered Fruit Jellies Northern Italian fruit jellies with direct, jammy flavors, covered in chocolate by bean to bar chocolatier Guido Gobino.

Each box includes four flavors: pear, peach, sour orange and mandarin, each covered in a chocolate particularly suited to it. A luscious combination that balances the bright fruit flavors, the near gumdrop consistency of the jellies, and the smooth sweetness of the milk chocolate.

Plums 3 Ways Chocolate-Filled Plums

Plum Cream-Filled Plums

Sugarplums

There’s smooth, then there’s smooth.

This is that one. Luscious, rich, indulgent, whatever else Roget suggests you can apply to these ganache-filled plums. From the storybook castle Château de Born in southwestern France, where they’ve grown plums for centuries. During the harvest, they take the fruit, dry it just long enough to concentrate the sweetness, then remove the pit and replace it with a ganache made from more of their own plums and silky Belgian chocolate.

Preciously packed in a handsome red box. Julia Child would approve.

P-CPL 24 plums in red box $60

Sweet, juicy plums from Agen, the undisputed plum capital of France, are dried till they’re moist, rich, and caramelly.

Laid in a classic blue and gold tin that's totally French in all the best ways.

Exquisite.

Enric Rovira's Drinking Chocolate from Spain

Zingerman’s Hot Cocoa from Ann Arbor

A great gift for chocolate lovers who think they've had everything. In Spain they’ll drink this morning, noon and night. Stateside, it's hard to get our hands on it. When the chance presents itself we jump at it—if you see it in stock, my advice is to buy it. You can make it as thick as you want by mixing the chocolate pellets with milk.

For a truly indulgent experience, go heavy on the chocolate. Slow, low heat, constant stirring and a little patience will produce one of the most luscious and rich elixirs you've ever sipped. This is one hot chocolate we adults can keep all to ourselves.

Merry Mint Chocolate Layer Cake It sounds simple enough: three layers of rich chocolate cake, filled with a chocolate mint buttercream and then iced with vanilla buttercream. The sides are cloaked in brownie crumbles, and it’s topped with a fondant candy cane. The traditional Swiss buttercream frostings are showstoppers, made by whipping fresh eggs and sugar into a meringue, then mixing in real Wisconsin butter and Madagascar vanilla. Our cakes are also marked by what they don’t contain: no artificial anything, no mixes, no shortening. Ships frozen.

While I’ll never forget Christmas as a kid, this peppermint bark from Chocolate Signatures in Toronto has overwritten all those childhood bark memories. Dark Belgian chocolate is topped with white chocolate (that actually tastes good), coated in a layer of crushed real peppermint candies.

Comes in a hot red tin.

Working from their cafe and kitchen in the Denver area, Damaris and her crew at Cultura Craft Chocolate turn cacao beans into finished chocolate bars, bon bons, and drinking chocolates. For this cocoa, organic peppermint oil balances the chocolate with a festive, bright, herbal freshness. Delicious anytime of year, but especially great during the holidays.
