Nueske’s Applewood Bacon

There’s a reason this is our top selling bacon. After smoking for up to 24 hours over Wisconsin applewood, 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.

Giorgio Cravero’s Parmigiano Reggiano

Our most popular cheese by a wide margin. 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.

Angelina Drinking Chocolate

Angelina, the jewelbox tea salon on the Rue de Rivoli, serves the best hot chocolate in Paris and—I’m ready to throw down and say it—in the entire world. It’s incredibly rich, with bottomless, intense chocolate flavor. Sipping a mug of it—served in the café with a mound of whipped cream to dollop in as you please—is an event to remember. 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. Or heat up a bottle.

Zingerman’s Noodle Kugel

Like a bread pudding made with pasta instead of bread, ours is made with local egg noodles, Zingerman’s farm cheese, plenty of plump Red Flame raisins, and a generous dose of vanilla. Everything is 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.

Lucky Dip Mystery Cheeses

In England they call it a “Lucky Dip.” Here we might call it a “grab bag.” Each dip is a mystery... you’re not going to know what’s inside until it arrives at your door. But here’s what I can tell you: you’ll get at least one pound of cheese, and at least two different types of cheese. Most often, they’re going to be well aged, harder cheeses—nothing gooey or stinky, though blues may be included. They may not be cheeses you’ll find on our website, necessarily, but I guarantee they are tasty.

Zingerman’s City Goat Cheese

If all you’ve ever had are gummy, bland and waxy goat cheeses, try this. Super-fresh goat’s milk and hand ladling make this little fresh goat cheese slowly fall apart and melt on your tongue. The goat cheese fans at your house will love it; the others will finally understand what all the fuss is about. The tang of a fresh goat cheese makes it an excellent pair for honey. On the savory side, it’s also excellent alongside sun dried tomatoes.

Zingerman’s Mini Brie

Cooking Cheese, Eating Cheese Is there

a difference?

Are there some kinds of cheeses that are meant only as an ingredient and some that should only be eaten? How do we know which is which?

How about wine? Are there wines you only cook with and others you only drink? For me, the answer is yes and yes. The wines I cook with are the ones that are left over. They’re huddled in the back of my refrigerator, a dreg or two left in each. They haven’t turned to vinegar, but they’ve been open too long and they’ve oxidized too much to taste great.

That wasn’t quite the answer you were looking for, though, was it? You expected an answer to the question: do I buy wine just for cooking? I’d say no. If a wine is not good enough to drink on its own, I don’t want to use it as an ingredient. That rule also applies to cheese. I don’t buy poor cheese for a dish and save the “good stuff” for eating on its own. I use the same cheeses in cooking as on the cheese board. But, like with wine, I often have bits and crusts of cheese left over in the fridge. They may be a little too dry.

By Mo Frechette

They may be rinds only. The dry ones get grated over a bit of pasta or roasted vegetables. Rinds get added to soup or pasta water.

Are there wines I buy only to drink, cheeses only to eat? Yes on the wines—the really good ones, the ones that cost a precious penny— they are drinkers only. If a wine’s price is dear I will work very hard to empty it all into my glass and not relegate it to the sauté pan, where I don’t notice flavor as much. And how about cheese—are some “eating only”? Here, to me, cheese is a little more flexible than wine. I’m almost always willing to add some cheese to a dish regardless of its price. Better cheeses, more complex cheeses—even with cooking you can taste the differences. Make a macaroni and mountain cheese dish with our Comté from Fort St. Antoine and Piave (find them on pages 8–9) and it will blow you away. Try a grilled cheese with our Downeast Cheddar (page 10) and it will be a revelation.

Mo Frechette founded Zingerman’s Mail Order. His favorite snack food is popcorn. You can reach him to ask him about his favorite cheeses to grate on it—or anything else you’re wondering about—at moeats@zingermans.com.

Save your Parm Bones

When you get to the end of a hunk of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, don’t throw out the rind. Put it in a plastic bag and keep it in the freezer. Next time you’re making a slowcooked pasta or rice dish, or a stew, add the “parm bone” to it. Like adding bones to bubbling broth it’ll disperse its flavor into the dish, melting slowly away. You can do this with any cheese whose rind isn’t waxed or coated.

Essex Manchego from Spain

Unwaxed Essex Manchego has a lovely, dry crumble and never tastes bitey. It goes down smooth, with the unmistakable fruity sweetness of sheep’s milk and a long savory finish.

Feta Voras from Greece

In northwest Greece, brothers Sokratis and Andreas make traditional feta using primarily sheep’s milk from the local Florina breed. Luscious and complex, it’s great crumbled in a salad, on its own with extra virgin olive oil and oregano, or melted down in a sauce.

MOUNTAIN Cheeses

Mountain cheeses often have two qualities in common: big wheels and big flavors. These are no cute little rounds you can lift with one hand. They are often the size of wagon wheels. Three feet across or more, they take two people to crack open. Big wheels can age longer before drying out which means a cellar full could feed a village during winter snows, a practical historical reason behind their size. More aging also means less moisture and that means deeper flavor. Mountain pastures are renowned for their biodiversity. The high altitude herb and flower aromas find their way into the cow’s milk. Those flavors are amplified by extra aging.

KM28 from Spain

Piave Vecchio from Italy

Named for the nearby kilometer marker along the Camino de Santiago, KM39 is aged for 18 months. It is often compared to Parmesan, but that barely scratches the surface. It’s intensely complex: bright tropical pineapple, rich brown butter and caramel, and a nutty walnut finish, with delightful crunchy crystals.

C-K39 1 lb was $42, now $21

Pleasant Ridge Reserve from Wisconsin

Maybe the best American cheese being made today. Like a European mountain cheese, it's fruity in an appley sort of way—rich, deep and sweet. From wheels selected just for us.

C-PRR 1 lb was $39, now $19.50

After aging for half a year or more in the Dolomite mountains of northern Italy, Piave has the nuttiness of a good Parmigiano Reggiano with a little kick of sweet mountain Gruyère. Eat it on its own, grate onto pasta, shave onto salads.

France

From the Jura mountains of eastern France. With a fudgy texture, well balanced, never bitey flavor, our Comté has a buttery, hazelnut taste that grows on your tongue.

Like a comic's comic or a writer's writer, this is a cheesemonger's cheese, the one the pros stock in their home refrigerators. I could eat it every day.

About hand-cut cheeses

At Zingerman’s Mail Order, we cut all our cheeses to order. When you buy a wedge, our cheese experts will take the wheel off the shelf, then cut and package your wedge by hand. Then we’ll pack it in your box within an hour of when it’s cut. Selling cheese this way is wayyy more work than just tossing pre-wrapped blocks of cheese into a box, but it makes for the freshest, highest quality cheese around. You really can taste the difference.

Cheddars

Cheddar is the single most popular cheese in the world. Once it was a single type of cheese, made on farms in one place (Somerset, England): cheese aged wrapped in cheese cloth, its curd cut in a way that became known as “cheddaring.” One such cheese still exists, from Jamie Montgomery's farm in Somerset. Closer to home, Cabot and Jasper Hill in Vermont make a traditional clothbound cheddar, too. This is as good chance as any to take advantage of the sale and try a bit of each to see which you prefer.

Jamie Montgomery’s Farmhouse Cheddar

The original from Somerset, cheddar’s birthplace in southwest England. Made with the milk of the Montgomery family’s cows, the clothbound wheels have a flaky texture and a grassy, penetrating, memorable flavor.

C-EFC 1 lb was $45, now $25 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Cabot Clothbound Cheddar

Cloth-wrapped from Vermont with a beefy, brothy flavor balanced with bright, tangy notes. The texture is flakier and less rubbery than waxed cheddar.

C-CCC 1 lb was $38, now $19 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Red Rock Cheese

Red Rock cheese is a deep, sunset orange color with a stripe or two of blue. The flavor is balanced between the savory, fruity, and tangy notes of a good cheddar with just a hint of a blue streak.

C-RRK 1 lb was $39, now $19.50 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Downeast Cheddar from Maine

Made in blocks, it’s creamier, with a sweeter flavor than clothbound cheddars. Aged for just under a year, we select batches for hearty, balanced flavors.

Goudas

Gouda is irresistible. The style of the “make” (the word cheese people give to the process of creating solid cheese from liquid milk) creates butterscotch caramel flavors that nearly everyone adores.

If you are doing a good job aging gouda you retain its sweetness and never let it drift into acrid bitterness—something that afflicts many goudas I taste in the states, especially those aged for too long, but never an issue with these expertly-aged wheels.

blue Cheeses

Blue cheeses are the anchovies of the cheese world. Controversial. Polarizing. They have fiercely loyal fans. They have diehard haters. But I want to tone down the rhetoric. My take is that the haters just haven’t had the right blue cheese, a superlative blue, a blue like real Stilton, or Bayley Hazen. These are the blues that change hearts and minds. And tastebuds. Try some and see what I mean.

Bayley Hazen Blue

A stellar blue cheese from Vermont. In the words of its maker, it’s like “a cross between butter and chocolate.” Yeah, that sounds good. A must for blue cheese lovers.

Irish Brown Bread Crackers

Like its brown bread inspiration, these taste a bit underwhelming at first. They have a quiet, subtle complexity that takes over, though, a product of the traditional alchemy of buttermilk, butter, and stone ground wheat. Chewy, balanced, and an excellent pair for cheeses.

Soft cheeses

Soft cheeses are some of the trickiest cheeses to sell. Their window of deliciousness is precious and short. Eat them too soon and they can be rubbery, bland, chalky. Eat them too late and they can be a funky sludge of moldy goo. But just right, ah, Goldilocks, then you have a luscious treasure. We offer just a few soft cheeses, which makes it easier to tend them in our cheese room. We can select a plump white specimen that’s ready to eat. Unwrap it and let it warm for twenty minutes at least—soft cheeses really benefit from being served at room temperature.

Zingerman’s Manchester

Manchester is luscious, a bit creamy, similar to France’s mold-ripened Brie. Try some on a baguette. It’s also excellent spread on ham sandwiches topped with caramelized onions.

Lomo is the Spanish word for loin. These ones come from Spain’s famed acorn-fed pata negra pigs. The acorn diet has a magical effect on the meat’s texture.

Bullet Sesame Oil Chili Crisp from Taiwan

Most chili crisps—a spicy, crunchy condiment from east Asia—start with a base of neutral vegetable oil, which doesn’t impart much flavor. This one, made by century-old Taiwanese sesame oil producer Dong He, combines toasted white ses ame oil with crispy chiles, Sichuan peppercorns, and garlic. It’s roasty and super savory, with a tingly spice that builds and lingers. Use it when you need some extra crunch and umami heat—it’s my go to for eggs, rice bowls, and nachos.

Thai Panang Curry Sauce

One of my absolute favorite winter meals is chicken simmered all afternoon in the slow cooker with a jar of this Panang curry sauce, served over rice. Seasoned with lemon grass, shallot, Thai basil, garlic, ginger, chile, and a pinch of sugar, the sauce is a little spicy, a little sweet, a little tangy, and a lot delicious. It’s also great for simmering veggies, tofu, meat, or just about anything else for 20 minutes on the stovetop for the quickest, most flavorful meal in town.

Maussane Olive Oil from Provence

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.”

Col. Pabst Worcestershire Sauce from Milwaukee

Kate Quartaro’s Worcestershire recipe comes from her great grandfather, Col. Gustave Pabst. In small batches she blends more than twenty different ingredients, starting with a malt amber lager from Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee. She adds demerara sugar and molasses for sweetness, soy sauce and anchovy paste for a salty kick, apple cider vinegar, tomato paste, and tamarind for some punchy acidity, and a smattering of spices for good measure. Compared to other Worcestershire, it’s less salty, more complex. A little bit malty, sweet, spicy, tangy and magical.

Vermont Creamery Cultured Butter

In the US, we’re used to sweet cream butter: the cream is pasteurized, then immediately churned into butter. To make cultured butter, after pasteurizing you add bacterial cultures to the cream, then let it ferment overnight—much like making yogurt. The fermentation creates way more flavor: in addition to more complex flavors like hazelnut and buttermilk, it simply tastes more buttery. This version, from Vermont Creamery, is churned to 86% butterfat and dotted with sea salt crystals, making it some extraordinarily rich, sumptuous stuff.

The foundation of Zingerman’s Deli. Every week we sell thousands of pounds of our corned beef, much of it piled high on Zingerman’s Jewish Rye bread and nearly as much sliced up for our customers to take home and have for dinner. Wondering how corned beef from the Midwest stacks up next to the deli centers of the east? A few years ago we slipped a pound of our corned beef into a blind, all New York City corned beef tasting held by Slow Food. The result was happily surprising—we were voted the best! Available two ways. First, cooked and sliced corned beef from the flat, or “first cut,” which is the leaner section of the brisket. Or whole, raw, brined brisket for home cooking, recipe included.

Date Mamoul Cookies from Shatila Bakery

Mamoul (pronounced MAH-mool, and also spelled ma’amoul) are Middle Eastern shortbread cookies stuffed with a nutty or fruity filling. They’re traditionally served as a sweet treat to celebrate a range of festive occasions including Purim, Easter, and Eid al-Fitr. Personally, I also like to have one (or maybe a few) to celebrate getting through a long afternoon.

These mamoul cookies come to us locally from family-owned Shatila Bakery in nearby Dearborn, Michigan, just west of Detroit. The team at Shatila have been making these traditional pastries for over 40 years, ever since Riad Shatila set up shop in 1979 with the recipes he brought from his native Lebanon. These days his wife and daughters are at the helm of the bakery, which is quite the destination should you find yourself near Deaborn. The filling for these cookies is made with a mixture of fresh dates with a smidge of orange blossom. Speaking of the dates, they use a variety called Aseel. Aseel dates are notably soft, which gives a particularly smooth consistency to the filling. The filling is stuffed inside a cookie dough made with plenty of butter and semolina flour, shaped into a ball. Then the top is stamped with a pattern, making the cookies as pretty as they are taste. Shatila makes so many mamouls that they use a machine to stamp the pattern, but if you want to try making your own mamouls at home you can find wooden mamoul spoons carved with patterns for stamping on Etsy. The bottom is coated in chopped pistachios, which gives a crunchy texture. Put it all together and you get a not-too-sweet combination of soft dough, fragrant pistachios and caramelly dates. Each cookie is big enough to last two or three bites. The cookies come individually wrapped, making them perfect to share for the holidays (or to secrete away for when you need a small, sweet pick-me-up).

J. Patrice Eid Chocolate Truffle Collection

Before Jamie LeBoeuf returned to Michigan to start J. Patrice chocolate studio, she honed her chocolatier skills while traveling and living in the Middle East. Eid al-fitr (translated as “the festival of breaking the fast”) celebrates the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month where dawn to dusk fasting is practiced. Sweets are commonly eaten in the festivities, and Jamie has translated the spirit of that tradition into three truffles: Qamareddine with pistachio and apricot, Midnight at the Oasis with tahini and coconut, and Date Night with dates and spices. Six exquisite truffles are tucked into a beautifully patterned gift box. Equally good for breaking your fast or for nibbling alongside a cup of tea for a special treat.

Potato Kugel

This is the food equivalent of a Jewish grandma’s enveloping hug—the kind that you never want to end. Unlike sweet noodle kugel (find it on page 4), potato kugel is savory and eats like a meal. Made simply from shredded potatoes, matzo meal, onions, a little egg to hold it together and a little schmaltz to make it rich, potato kugel hits all the comfort notes and a bunch of flavor notes, too. Spiced simply with salt and good pepper, a warmed up slice of potato kugel is like the best parts of a twice-baked potato: luscious, soft, smooth, a little savory. Made just for Passover.

Fran’s Chocolate Easter Bunnies

Too often, chocolate Easter bunnies rely on their cuteness to distract you from their lackluster flavor. That’s far from true with these delectable bunnies from master chocolatiers Fran’s in Seattle. Each bunny is a solid slab of chocolate, about six inches from to cottontail to ear tip, and wrapped in colorful, springtimey foil. The dark chocolate bunny has a rich, toasty aroma and a flavor with a bright acidity that reminds me of cherry. The milk chocolate bunny has a silky mouthfeel with a beautiful balance between creamy, floral, and fruity flavors.

J. Patrice Chocolate Tarbouche collection

NEW

These chocolate covered marshmallow candies are known by many names around the globe. In Lebanon, where chocolatier Jamie LeBoeuf honed her chocolate making skills, they’re called Tarbouche, which means “fez,” the historic cylindrical hat from Turkey—which happens to be the same shape as the confection (and similar enough to an egg that you could trick the Easter bunny). Whatever name you use, we can all call it delicious. Jamie and her team fill thin, pastel colored, crunchy chocolate shells with impossibly fluffy marshmallow and a variety of spectacular flavors that beautifully balance the sweetness and command your attention. Each box contains 12 pieces: three each of Apricot, Caramel, Pistachio Baklawa, and Espresso.

Peach Wood Smoked

Duroc 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 for a bit of sweetness a dose of mead from Arvins Acres, a nearby meadery in Delphi, Indiana. Then they’re smoked over peach wood. 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 Easter.

Purim Hamantaschen Gift Boxes

Purim is a late-winter Jewish holiday that celebrates the defeat of Haman, an enemy of the Jews. It’s traditional to celebrate by eating triangular Hamantaschen cookies, and by playing with noisemaking groggers to drown out Haman's name. Our Hamantaschen Gift Boxes each comes with a dozen soft, chewy cookies made by hand at Zingerman’s Bakehouse.. They're made with a crumbly pastry base stuffed with a creamy filling. We offer two collections, each with a mix of three filling flavors. The first is a classic mix, including four each of vanilla bean cream cheese, poppy seed, and apricot. T he second is just for kids (and kids at heart) and includes four each of chocolate cake, apple pie, and caramel in a chocolate dough. Each box can be shipped with or without noisemaking groggers.
