Candyman Charlie Frank isn’t reinventing the wheel, just making it more delicious. This creation from his candy kitchen is a flavor-charged upgrade of classic peanut brittle. Jumbo Runner peanuts jut like boulders in a shiny, golden, crisp candy sea. The texture looks silky but shatters with each bite. To achieve this consistency Charlie makes small batches by hand with a watchful eye. This is stove-top brittle, not factory gristle, with butterscotch brown flavor, sharp, crackly texture and the lingering savory finish of roasted peanut.

A cake of a different caliber Robert Lambert’s Rare Citrus Fruit Cake

Full disclosure: the price on this cake may cause sticker shock.

Where most fruit cakes are cheap, somewhat industrial and terrible, this is another species altogether. It's by far the best of its kind I’ve ever tried. Robert told me, “The recipe is British, Victorian era. It’s based on my grandmother Floria's cake, but instead of the store-bought glacéed fruits she used I make my own candied fruit.” He chooses blood oranges, bergamots, Rangpur limes and more, many that he picks himself. Each cake is soaked in cognac and aged for a few months, then garnished with a slice of candied fruit and a bay leaf, all wrapped gently in cheese cloth. A slice cut thin while the cake is cool—he recommends serving it chilled—looks like a stained glass window and tastes fresh, clean and lively. Limited quantities.

Beyond the malL Cinnful Cinnamon Roll Gift Box 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. Ten cinnamon rolls baked in a reusable metal tin with serving instructions.

cheesemonger's crackers Irish Brown Bread Crackers

Seamus Sheridan is a cheesemonger with several eponymous throughout Ireland. Recently he's worked with a miller and baker to create some rather outstanding crackers including my favorites, brown bread crackers. A word of warning: like their brown bread inspiration, these taste a bit underwhelming at first. They have a quiet, subtle complexity that takes over, a product of the traditional alchemy of buttermilk, butter, and stone ground wheat (made at the same mill we source our Irish oatmeal, online). Chewy, balanced, and—given that an Irish cheesemonger made the recipe—you can trust they go amazingly well with any wet-country cheeses, especially those we carry from London's Neal's Yard Dairy.

Butter Biscuit Tin Lunch Box It’s rare I'm swayed by packaging but this British lunch box definitely caught my eye. It was the shortbread cookies, all-butter, eight vanilla, eight chocolate, made by England's Artisan Biscuit Company, that made it worth it, though. When the cookies are gone the lunch box makes a great toy.

From North Carolina, America's home for sweet potatoes, comes a grand cracker that walks the line between sweet and savory. It’s almost like it's got a split personality. The natural sugars of sweet potatoes give it a caramelized sweetness. But it's made without sugar so there's a starchy savoriness, too. So is it a sweet treat? A savory snack? I say yes. Gluten free.

Peanut butter is king in America. But the regal walnut? When does it get its fifteen minutes? From Lime Rock Orchards in Paso Robles, California comes the perfect candidate for fame's quick feast. Where other nut butters resemble chewing on mortar, this has a fluffy light texture. It's complemented by a toasty warm flavor. Spread it on a scone or bagel—it’s fantastic. On top of ice cream it’s almost like chopped nuts and Fluffernutter® in one (I mean that as a compliment all you Fluffernutter haters). Even hard core peanut butter fans like myself—I’m crazy for Koeze’s Cream Nut Butter p. 23—can find a spot in their pantry for this.

top sardines

Portuguese Sardines

There are actually dozens of different fish sold as sardines in the U.S. Most are either brislings from Norway or herring from the North Atlantic. While they aren't bad, they don't come close to the flavor of true pilchards like these. And unlike Norwegian sardines, these are never smoked, so the full flavor of the fish comes through. Four or five tender, perfect sardines, nested in a tin of olive oil. We offer standard or extra virgin olive oil, which has the effect of making the flavor more buttery, less metallic. In a way it's less fishy. To some folks who are used to a briny, edgy flavor these will come off as softer, rounder.

Three squids, cooked just till tender, the bodies stuffed with tentacles so they almost look like seafood sausages. Which is pretty much what they are.

A little smoky, a little sweet, you can open the tin, pop ‘em in your mouth as is, chop them into pieces for an appetizer, or add them to a little warm chickpea salad with cilantro. The packaging is outstanding, a great gift for a seafood fanatic or someone who gets giddy every time you say “tapas”.

sargASso’s surprise Smoked Eel

I understand that the name may put you off.

Eels just don’t sound appetizing. But they are and they’re more luxurious than you could imagine. This tin has four flakingly tender eel fillets, lightly smoked. Milder than mackerel or sardines, they have a texture that reminds me of salmon crossed with sea bass. Amazing stuff, with the kind of out-of-fashion packaging that belies the high quality of fish within. Eat them on their own, forked out of the tin. Or top a green salad with a couple fillets, capers, Marash red pepper and lemon zest. An unparalleled late night snack.

Berberechos

Galician cockles—berberechos, in Spanish—are tiny, coveted clams, handshucked and tinned in simple brine.

The amount of handwork to get this done is extraordinary, and the care is evident as soon as you open the tin.

The placement of each clam, the wonderful sweet sea aroma and the flavor and texture—ocean sweet, meaty, tender and succulent—are clearly a labor of love.

This is the kind of tinned seafood that you find almost nowhere besides Spain where it's considered a delicacy. It may take some time to wrap your head around that idea, or wrap your wallet around the price, but if you know someone who loves special fishes, this is definitely worth splurging on. Just open the tin and serve, like it's done at the best Barcelona tapas bars.

No shells.

Ortiz Tuna 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. All are kosher.

Antipasto extraordinaire

Anchovy & Tuna Stuffed Red Cherry Peppers If you are looking to take an antipasto hors d'oeuvres tray from That's Nice to Oh My God! here are two ways. Number one, red cherry peppers, stuffed with a mousse of tuna, taggiasche olives, anchovies and parsley. Number two, capers and anchovies stuffed into the same. About the size of a fat chestnut, each is a slightly spicy, silky flavor bomb. The pepper pops when you bite. The savory stuffing fills your mouth with the taste of the sea with a lingering smokiness. The flavor lasts and lasts, subtly changing and getting more interesting. Expensive but worth it if you're looking for an exceptional experience. P.S. Don't throw out the olive oil. It makes an excellent salad dressing or marinade. Very limited supplies. About 8 peppers per jar.

the rap these fish deserve Rizzoli Olive Oil Packed Anchovies

In most social circles it's rarely appropriate to admit that you love anchovies. But when you hook up with great anchovies like these they can quickly become one of the most enjoyable parts of your eating routine. Rizzoli is a fifth-generation firm in Parma, Italy that buys anchovies in the spring, when they're fattest. They're caught in traditional net circles which keeps them from being bruised. The attention Rizzoli gives to the entire process is clear when you see their tin. It's a gorgeous gold box that looks like a jewel case more than a fish tin. These are not the putrid little fish you find scattered on pizza. Rizzoli's anchovies are consistently plump, meaty, never mealy, with the clear, crisp, deep flavor of the sea. Toast some Farm Bread, rub a raw clove of garlic across the surface, then lay a couple of these on top. Make an open face egg salad sandwich and top it with two anchovy fillets. One tin contains about ten cleaned fillets, ready for eating.

Peranzana from Molise

Zingerman’s extra virgin olive oil is created by Marina Colonna on her ancient estate in the Molise, a little over 100 miles due east of Rome. Made from hand picked Peranzana olives pressed the same day they’re taken from the tree, this oil is hugely flavorful. The latest vintage has pleasing aromas of green apple, freshly cut grass and black pepper and a whisper of almond. It finishes with that great green olive bitterness and a bit of a spice in its kick.

Frantoio from Chile

The latest bottling, from the summer 2012 harvest is a big, rambunctious olive oil. It has a wonderful aroma that reminds me of almonds and has a really beautiful bitterness in the finish that may catch you with a punch of late breaking pepperiness. To me it has the same sort of appeal of the bitter end of dark chocolate. It’s lively, engaging, intriguing. Not strong but vital, alive. My mouth tingles long after I’ve finished eating it.

Moulin de la Chartreuse

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.”

For years, we’ve had three Provençal olive oils: Alziari, Maussane and Eric’s. Now, for the first time in a decade, there’s a fourth. It wasn’t from lack of trying.

It’s hard to find a great-tasting extra virgin oil from that area. This fits the bill, it’s one of the best French extra virgin olive oils I’ve tried in a long time. The flavor of the current harvest is very bright, with a buttery aroma. It is very smooth, with a mild but pleasant grassiness and a whisper of pepper in the finish that prickles the throat and tickles the nose. Like all southern French olive oils it’s excellent on a light salad and phenomenal on fish.

Pugliese oils get little credit on the international oil scene. The region’s reputation is that of a producer of affordable bulk oils. But hidden in the shadows of the huge industrial producers are artisans like the Pellegrino family.

It has an outrageous aroma of freshly cut grass and wild herbs. Its flavor is big, fruity, full and wild. Its finish is persistent, with lots of rambunctious pepperiness that characterizes good Pugliese oils. This is consistently the boldest oil from our offerings, knocking the Tuscan pressings out of the "rustic and fruity" category they normally dominate.

Tenuta di Valgiano

While the Valgiano estate dates back to the 16th century, the energy on the grounds is new. When I visited a few years ago, I was impressed by the commitment Laura di Collobiano, Moreno Petrini and Saverio Petrilli had in making the ancient groves produce outstanding extra virgin olive oil. They’ve won numerous awards, including the prestigious Ercole Olivario, and they’ve won our customers’ hearts—this is consistently one of our most popular oils. Valgiano is a touch gentler than other more audacious oils from the center of Tuscany (we have several for sale online), but it’s still got plenty of pungent, peppery, olive-y goodness.

The silky, sexy oil from Tuscany Savignola Paolina

Everyone forgets the name of this oil. It’s long and nearly unpronounceable. Luckily, it has an alias that no one can forget: "The silky, sexy oil from Tuscany." We couldn’t have given it a more accurate moniker.

Savignola Paolina olive oil is unfiltered, giving it a thick, creamy, buttery texture.

It has a luscious, mouth-filling flavor that’s very grassy in this year’s harvest, hinting of artichokes with a soft touch of pepper at the finish. Carlo Fabri makes only 500 bottles a year, and all his olives are picked and pressed in a three day family affair in early November. He sends almost his entire production to us. The tall, elegant, black bottle is as sexy as the extra virgin olive oil within. Outstanding.

The latest harvest, pressed in summer of 2012—when it's fall down under—is an electric green color. The fruity aroma is grassy and has a tartness that reminds me of starfruit.

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 fresh fish.

italian barbecue sauce Citrus Olive Oil Sampler from Italy

Whole olives are pressed with citrus rinds, not infused with essences or flavors like most citrus oils. Each piece of fruit is peeled by hand before pressing, a step almost no one takes but that Marina feels “makes the taste of real fruit stand out.” She's right. These are some of the best citrus oils I've ever tasted. They're great drizzled on anything off the grill or lavished on roasted vegetables. (Asparagus with a bead line of orange oil is a personal favorite.) Sampler contains orange, lemon, bergamot and mandarin extra virgin olive oils.

RAre brEed frOm CataloNia Clos de la Torre Olive Oil

In the Empordà region in northeast Spain near the French border grows the rare Argudell olive. It's tiny, even smaller than Spain's famous Arbequina. The trees are difficult to grow, and the yield is small. That's the downside. On the upside, these olives pack a lot of flavor into their petite purple packages. This oil's unusual olive star creates an oil with flavors unlike any other on our shelves. It starts off buttery and soft, almost luscious. It grows into something bold and grassy, with notes of red pepper before finishing on the bitter end of the spectrum. One of the most complex extra virgin olive oils I've tasted.

Why we carry only one brand of balsamic The Balsamic Vinegars of La Vecchia Dispensa

While we carry different vinegars and olive oils from different farms and acetaias we only carry one family's everyday balsamic: 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 outstanding balsamics. And while I've probably tasted another fifty balsamics since we started carrying theirs a decade and a half ago none have come close in terms of balance and flavor. 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. They have a legion of followers who return to them again and again.

A staff and customer favorite, their 10 year aged balsamic is the most intensely flavored balsamic of its age I’ve ever tried. Its complexity, with rich flavors of oak, blackberry and dark fruit, is partly due to aging in very small batches. That allows more evaporation and contact with the barrel—both of which contribute to more intense flavors. Although aged for only 25 percent longer than the 8 year balsamic, the intensity of flavor is almost double. As you move up the age range—to 16 year and 30 year—the liquor thickens, the sweetness enhances, the carmelization takes you on a wild ride of flavor.

It's fresh fruit season folks, this is the time to luxuriate with great balsamic.

Get some.

basque white wine vinegar

Txakoli White Wine Vinegar

The Txakoli wine, itself hard to find outside Basque country, is rarely made into vinegar. The vinegar is as rare as the albino rhinoceros. It's made by Emilio Lunegas, a devoted Basque wine maker. He decided to develop a vinegar from the traditional wine and broaden the recognition of the Basque region. Working with top-quality Txakoli made primarily from Hondarribi Zuri white grapes, as well as a bit from its cousin, the equally obscure black Hondarribi Beltza, Sr. Luengas and his colleagues make only about 1,200 liters of the vinegar in a year. The flavor is light, lovely, lingering. It’s not sweet, and there’s an airiness to it that makes it refreshing. It’s very nice on simple salads of most any sort. Exceptional with seafood—deglaze a pan after you sauté fish in it. Try it everywhere a recipe asks for white wine vinegar and you'll be happy you did.

roadhouse bread

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.

french mouNtain I’d have a tough time picking between this and Farm Bread for top spot on my European-style favorites list. French Mountain Bread has a chestnut colored crust nearly a quarter inch thick, a dense wheaty crumb inside and a toasty, long lasting flavor. It’s totally terrific for toasting. We offer it in two sizes, a ¾ kilo loaf (about 1.65 lbs) that’s good for munching and a 2 kilo (about 4½ lbs, illustrated) work of art. I love the 2K loaf. A good foot and a half across and four or five inches high, it’s decorated with a hand-cut “Z.” The size is significant because bigger loaves almost always taste better. Baked to last, you’ll still be enjoying 2K Mountain Bread ten days after the loaf has left our oven.

Traditional Jewish rye bread is still an endangered American species. Eighteen years after we started baking them in Ann Arbor you'll still be hard pressed to find a loaf like them anywhere in the country. Believe it or not, most “rye bread” sold in America contains very little rye flour. These are different. These are breads like my grandparents ate in Eastern Europe: plenty of rye flour, a natural sour rye starter (not the usual canned shortcut) and lots of time to let the dough develop. They’re the breads I reach for to make a sandwich or to eat with cool butter and fresh oysters. A perfect pairing with corned beef.

the king of parmesan Parmigiano-Reggiano Not all the wheels that bear the world famous Parmigiano-Reggiano name are created equal. There are big differences from one to the next. This cheese is made by a dairy nearly two thousand feet up in the hills outside of Modena, Italy. The high altitude makes for plenty of diversity in the grasses, herbs and flowers growing in the cows’ pastures. This means that the milk–and subsequently, your cheese–has more complex flavors. The wheels are aged for a minimum of two years (33% longer than the Consorzio minimum). Most important, the cheese has a really rich, wonderfully complex flavor with a lovely, long finish. It has none of the bitterness or mouthburn that often mars the final flavor of others. Outstanding.

continuous cake, a great corporate gift Monthly Coffeecake Club Our coffeecakes aren’t built on any secrets. They’re also not built from too much sugar, shortening or other shortcuts that mar the flavor of many “gourmet” pastries. These are a product of great ingredients and a lot of tender care. Their honest flavor is easy to enjoy and kind of addictive. They’re our most popular gift.

This club is a great way to give someone a chance to enjoy all of our coffeecakes, one per month. Just as they start to miss what they finished a fresh one arrives.

Your succulent sentiments will be hard to forget. A gift subscription makes a great professional present. Each cake serves 5-7.

our search is Over Coop’s Hot Fudge

I’ve been patiently searching for a great hot fudge ever since Zingerman’s Creamery started making gelato a few years ago. Till now it’d been a sickly sweet, unlucky quest. Most have too much sugar. Many have a laundry list of unpronounceable ingredients. Then along came Coop’s. To be honest, the jar caught my eye first. A waxed seal drips from the top looking like chocolate that leaked out of the vat. Usually when I see clever packaging like this I’m suspect. It often overshadows the food. To my surprise the hot fudge inside was good. Not just good, pretty great.

Sporting just six ingredients, all of which I promise you’ll recognize, Marc Cooper’s hot fudge is milky and chocolaty without being overly sweet. Microwave for less than a minute and you’re in business.

sublime pork Red Wattle Porterhouse Pork Chops & Ribs

Red Wattle is an old breed of pig that was raised for flavor, not fashion. Today you might find Red Wattle pork in a few restaurants in New York. There was almost no supply for us home cooks. Until now. We’re working with Heritage Foods to secure big, fat, Red Wattle porterhouse pork chops and ribs. Each chop measures an inch and a quarter thick and tips the scales at fourteen ounces. The ribs are similarly sized. The flavor is rich, herbaceous, even a little sweet.

It packs more flavor than I’ve ever had in a pork chop. The crowning glory of Red Wattle pork, however, is its fat. It marbles the meat and wraps it in a soft, opaque band. When cooked it melts within the meat and softens its edge to a luscious, lip-smacking bite. This is melt-in-your mouth fat, the kind of succulent experience you expect in great steak. It’s never a sensation I’d experienced in pork until this one. The pork comes from hogs that are raised impeccably.

The pigs are not confined, have access to the outdoors, and never receive antibiotics or hormones. Ships frozen, though they may thaw and be cold, not hard, when they arrive. Chops, cut thick, porterhouse style with the tenderloin attached, come two to a pack.

You’ve got to hand it to fondant frosting. It makes a gorgeous cake. It shapes like potter’s clay and holds color like a fresco.

All those tilting, day-glo cakes you see that are so alluring—all fondant. Unfortunately, most of the cake’s engineering stops at decoration. The meat of the cake, so to speak, is bland and pointless. We’ve made sure our buttermilk cream Mother's Daisy Cake is different. It's baked with real butter, buttermilk, fresh lemon juice and real vanilla. After it cools, the daisy decorations are added by hand. She’ll love how it looks. She’ll talk for weeks about how it tasted. Supplies are limited so reserve early. Cake is yellow with a white flower. Ships frozen, arrives cool. Available until May 12.
