Top 10 New Foods of 2o22

Raspberry Vinegar If you’re a fan of cooking with vinegar like I am, this one is a must-have for your collection. The flavor is between the sweetness of balsamic and the tartness of apple cider vinegar, and once it hits the back of your tongue you really taste the raspberry. It’s a really special taste, and it kind of tingles in the mouth. It packs such a flavor punch that you don’t have to use a lot—a little goes a long way. I’ve used it in vinaigrettes, in place of lemon juice in a glaze for coffee cake, as a marinade, and more. I’ll definitely be stocking my pantry with this from now on, it’s wonderful to play around with it!

Mx Green Sass Hot Sauce The first time I tried the Mx Green Sass Hot Sauce I was BLOWN AWAY by the depth of flavor. From the first taste, I immediately had a ton of uses in mind for it. This is by far the best hot sauce I’ve ever tried. It is bright, tangy, spicy and well rounded. The heat comes first and then you are left with the lingering hints of the peppers, cilantro and oregano. Not to mention that lovely acidity from the citrus. All perfectly balanced. The taste is so complex that it leaves you wondering “What is in this?! Who gave this sauce permission to be so tasty??”

Bianco di Napoli Tinned Whole Tomatoes These tomatoes are so tasty that, no joke, I eat them right out of the can! What makes the Bianco DiNapoli tomatoes so marvelously magical? They’re all organically grown, they’re hand selected to make sure they’re properly ripe (since not every tomato on a plant is ripe at the same time), and then they’re steam-peeled. No additives, no preservatives. Each can gets a couple leaves of fresh organic basil and a small bit of Pacific sea salt. And the labels are seriously lovely—you might want to buy extra cans just to brighten your kitchen or keep the empty ones to use for pencil holders.

Mulino Marino Pasta Noodles have long been among my favorite comfort foods. But as I got older, in an effort to eat a heart healthy diet, I looked for more whole grains options. Far too many whole wheat pastas are gritty, brittle, or simply have a strong flavor that overwhelms delicate sauces. Mulino Marino has found a way to take whole germ heirloom Italian wheat, and transform it into the pasta of my dreams! It has a coarse texture on the outside, which I love for clinging to sauces, without a trace of coarseness within. Biting into these noodles produces the waves of joy and satisfaction I have been missing for years.

RoastedGolden GoldenSesame SesameOil Oil Roasted Sesame oil used to be something that I’d add if a recipe called for it, but I wouldn’t reach for it on my own. It existed in the part of my kitchen (and my brain) that neutral canola oil does - the functional but not exciting part. Wadaman’s dark roasted golden sesame oil changed all that. It’s somehow both super rich and delicate, with a deep toasty, nutty flavor that I keep thinking about. This oil has become a cooking go-to for me whenever I want to add some umami oomph to whatever I’m making. It’s so aromatic and flavorful that a little goes a long way. Stir fry? Obviously. Avocado toast? Absolutely.

Granola? Yep. The list goes on and on!

Alp Blossom Cheese I love cheese, particularly the mountain-style cheeses. There, I’ve said it.

The Alp Blossom Cheese caught my eye when we first started selling it - I had to try it. Wow! Aesthetically, it’s stunning… on a charcuterie board or gracing yourself with a little prize of cheese after a long day’s work.

The little, dried petals and leaves on the rind are delicate and lend a hint of herbaceousness to the flavor. Oh the flavor. At room temperature it’s nutty, creamy, slightly tangy… made even more beautiful when paired with an effervescent Pinot Grigio. I dream of it melted on a crisp toast, gooey and filling the little crannies. If only I had the patience.

English Farmhouse Cheddar

Koeze Peanut Butter from Michigan My family eats a lot of Koeze peanut butter. My daughter has it as a regular snack on rice cakes or graham crackers, or rolled up in a tortilla as a pb&j. My wife is lactose free and uses it in her amazing coconut milk peanut butter pie. And I’ve somehow got into this habit of adding a little dollop to my milk and cereal each morning as a little protein bomb. But the best is when I get a loaf of bread from Zingerman’s Bakehouse, like the sesame semolina. There’s just something about a pb&j on thick, handcut slices of Zingerman’s bread with this peanut butter and American Spoon’s sour cherry preserves—turns a peanut butter and jelly sandwich into a delicacy.

I first tasted true English Farmhouse Cheddar in 1992. That was the year Neal’s Yard Dairy began exporting it to America. Zingerman’s was the first customer. It was featured in the first mail order catalog we made too. That’s a lot of firsts, but the reason I chose the world-famous clothbound cheese made from single farms in Somerset is that it never lets me down.

I love cheddar cheeese in all its forms. None, however, compare with the original. It tastes like fresh grass and cool stone aging rooms. The beefy flavor goes on and on and on. It’s more complex, more flavorful, more everything you want in cheese.

A handful of English farms continue to make cheddar this way; the one we offer today is from Jamie Montgomery. Treat yourself to a wedge. Warm it to room temperature, get a slice of well-buttered crusty bread and something to wash it all down, then go to town.

Zingerman’s Pecan Raisin Bread It’s always a good day when I bring home a loaf of pecan raisin bread… It’s a tasty bundle of joy! A perfect combination of juicy jumbo flame raisins and crunchy pecans enveloped in beautiful organic wheat bread.

It has the magic of the potato chip… I Jim's Favorite food can’t eat just one slice, but rather keep of the last 40 years carving off another, and yet another slice, and so on until half the loaf is gone.

Jowl Bacon from Smoking Goose At my house we definitely have foods that we treat as “special.”

This jowl bacon is on that list. We unceremoniously but lovingly call it face bacon. It’s the bacon of choice for holiday celebrations, so when planning menus I always hear, “Don’t forget to order some face bacon.” It is simply incredible tasting. I had one bite at an event and I immediately bought some. This meat is deeply flavorful on its own, then seasoned with coriander, black pepper and maple syrup and smoked over applewood. All together it has a sort of pastrami flavor. Although nicely fatty, it cooks in a way that leaves crispy yet tender pieces. While you could cook with it, we like ours just straight from the pan in whole pieces.

Hake & Prawn Stuffed Piquillo Peppers from Spain Saying prawns from a tin can be really delicious sounds like I’m really tired or I’m really drunk. But the hake and prawns together taste like crab, with this soft texture that’s really approachable.

Then they’re stuffed in a roasted pepper, and honestly, every food should have the option of being peppered. “Would you like your lasagna peppered?” Yes! The stuffed peppers are tinned in a tomato sauce that is simple enough to be able to adjust as you like. I like to add cheese or peppers. This is an instant meal straight from the can, yet it has such flair. It’s really impressive when I “make” it for people, but it’s so easy! Just buy it and eat it and don’t worry about it. It’s gonna be delicious.

Couscous from Tunisia The Mahjoub family’s hand-rolled couscous is seriously amazing. Memorable and world-class could well be understatements. It’s so flavorful that when I tried it for the first time 10 years ago it completely altered my expectations of what couscous could taste like. It’s terrific with just about anything: Ari's Favorite food vegetables, fish, chicken, lamb, any sort of sauce. Even just of the last 40 years dressed simply with good olive oil, sea salt, and pepper, it’s marvelous and you can make it—following the instructions on Zingerman's Co-Founder Started in 1982 the jar—in under 15 minutes.

Urfa Red Pepper Flakes from Turkey A jar of Urfa Pepper is my ever-present kitchen companion. I often have more than one jar—just to make sure I don’t run out. The earthy sweetness and gentle heat work together to add a surprising, subtle layer of complexity. A sort of kitchen alchemy happens when you add urfa to your tomato-based soups and salads. In the wintertime, I roast squash with shallots, garlic, and jenny's Favorite food urfa. When I need a spice rub for fish, veggies, or meats, of the last 40 years I combine it with coarse gray sea salt, wild fennel pollen, spicy Pimentón de la Vera, fennel seeds, and celery seeds.

Kolsvart Blackcurrant & Raspberry Cod Gummies from Sweden Typically gummies are not my favorite thing—they just taste sweet. But the blackcurrant and raspberry gummies from Kolsvart are different. They are much more nuanced, and the flavor is good—it’s fruity, not just super sugary. I like that there are two flavors in the bag, and while Ian's Favorite food I thought I would like the raspberry better I was surprised to of the last 40 years learn I prefer the currant. I like them as a light dessert, and I go through whole bags with ease.

New Food Finds Exceptionally Fruity Iio Jozo Premium Rice Vinegar

Come Into Chew Coconut Taffy

Most rice vinegars are one-note extremes: either very mild and flat, or excessively acidic and overwhelming. This rice vinegar from Kyoto-based Iio Jozo is unlike any I’ve ever tried before. They start by making their own sake using locally sourced rice. Although that takes more time and effort than buying pre-made sake, it allows them to brew the highest quality sake with a cleaner, more refined taste.

After the sake ferments into vinegar, it’s aged for 8 months to round out any sharp, harsh notes. Overall, each batch takes about a year from start to finish. All of these steps add up to an exceptionally fruity and complex vinegar that you can swap in whenever you’d normally use a white wine vinegar.

V-IJR 500 ml bottle $55

If the first thing that comes to mind when you think of taffy is artificially flavored, cloyingly sweet, super sticky candy, then you’re in for a pleasant surprise. The mother and daughter duo behind Numa Foods was inspired by popular Asian milk candy to create these chewy, bite-size treats with simple, natural ingredients. They’re full of creamy coconut milk flavor with a mild, nutty sweetness. Plus, they have just enough chew to prolong the deliciousness without pulling out a tooth in the process. Grab an extra bag to stash away for whenever you need a little sweet pick-me-up.

Sweetly Southern Spotted Trotter Sorghum Cured Bacon

As Good as Italy, Made in Michigan Carosello Gigli Pasta

Atlanta-based Spotted Trotter adds a uniquely Southern twist to their bacon. They start with pasture-raised, hormone and antibiotic-free pork belly from Kentucky and Tennessee that is slowly smoked over pecan wood and then cured in Georgia sorghum syrup. Sorghum syrup is made by pressing the cane stalks of grain sorghum to extract the juice, which is then boiled and evaporated into a thick syrup. It’s sweet, but with a distinctively umami, slightly sour flavor that adds complexity to anything it touches. These bacon slices are thick and chewy, with a lightly sweet, earthy flavor that will make them the star of any breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

M-SGM 12 oz, sliced $22

Mike Carosello grew up in Missouri, but spent years living the vagabond life in Italy. He fell in love with food (who wouldn’t?) and set out to learn the art of pasta making from the masters in Florence. He discovered the importance of using bronze dies to extrude the pasta (it holds sauce better that way) and how to properly dry the dough. When he decided to set up pasta shop in Dexter, Michigan, he found the best durum and semolina wheats he could find and had them freshly milled. It’s just as toothsome and chewy and nutty and flavorful as any pasta I’ve had in Italy (and I’ve had lots). The gigli shape is a favorite in Florence: a short, flower shaped cone with ruffled edges that’s great for holding chunky sauces or baking like ziti.

3 HOT COCOAS & A COFFEE Barcelona’s beverage

Enric Rovira's Drinking Chocolate from Spain 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.

Cinnful Cinnamon Rolls 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.

ZINGERMAN’S BAKE Zingerman’s Bakehouse first fired up their ovens in 1992 with one goal: to bake full-flavored loaves for the sandwiches served at Zingerman’s Deli. Almost overnight, customers were beating down the bakery’s doors to buy bread. That demand remains.

Paesano

Farm

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 $10

Imagine sitting around a French farmhouse table waiting for dinner. This would be the bread the family would serve. Like French pain au levain, it's a white-wheat mix made with a sour starter. Its crust is crisp, its flavor subtle and never tiring. The three pound round is my favorite. Cut into quarters and freeze what you don’t eat.

Sourdough

Jewish Rye

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.

B-SDR 1½ lb round $10

This is rye like my grandparents ate in Eastern Europe, made with plenty of freshly milled rye flour (believe it or not, most “rye bread” sold in America contains very little rye flour), a natural sour rye starter (not the usual canned shortcuts) and lots of time to let the dough develop. The base bread for our reuben and many other sandwiches.

roadhouse bread

Sesame Semolina

Based on an early New England recipe made with a mix of freshly-milled rye flour, cornmeal, and wheat. 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, smoked salmon, toasted with honey, or just about any cheese plate you can dream up.

B-ROA 1½ lb loaf $12

A traditional loaf in Sicily, this bread has a lovely golden yellow color thanks to the base of freshly milled whole grain durum semolina flour. Durum is the wheat commonly used to make pasta and couscous. When used for breads it creates a lightly sweet, nutty flavor that pairs remarkably well with the layer of roasty, toasty sesame seeds that coats the outside of this loaf.

HOUSE Breads Today we ship thousands of loaves every year to bread lovers nationwide. We make them with minimal ingredients, including many flours we mill ourselves. And we bake in a stone hearth oven, which gives the bread a crisper, more flavorful crust.

Pecan Raisin

Craquelin

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

B-PEC 1¼ lb loaf $20

The national bread of Belgium, given a sweet twist with the addition of orange.

It’s a buttery brioche rolled up with fresh orange zest and sugar cubes soaked in Grand Marnier®. The additions form a sweet swirl inside each slice like a cinnamon roll and their dark orange flavors seep into the surrounding dough. Some of our crew call it “coffee cake bread,” which gets to the spirit of the loaf, though its texture is much lighter.

Like most of the school children I know, I like to rip off a hunk and eat it as soon as I open the bag, but it's best when you pop it in the oven for about fifteen to twenty minutes. Your entire kitchen is likely to be filled with sensuous smells—warm chocolate, good bread. This is one loaf that's very hard to keep around the house.

B-XSB 1 lb loaf $13

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

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 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 heated.

B-PEP 1 lb loaf $20

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 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.

pigs can fly Bacon Club

most p ular op

Six to date. That’s how many vegetarians I know who’ve fallen off the bandwagon thanks to bacon. I’m not using that as a proposal for torturing anyone. I’m just saying any food that’s so good it can break a strong will has to be worth trying. Our bacon club has been lauded by chefs, sous chefs, home chefs, pork-o-philes and bacon freaks all over America. It’s our most popular food club by far and it’s not just the novelty of bacon-by-mail that makes it so loved. The bacons are downright amazing. It’s hard to find any of these bacons in most shops, let alone all of them. They represent the pinnacle of American bacon making and, let’s be honest, this is one food that no one in the world does better than us. Sorry Europe, it’s true. Your Parmigiano Reggiano and your Champagnes are great, but you can’t touch our bacon.

Red Pepper Truffles from Sicily Bonajuto has been making chocolate in the baroque Sicilian town of Modica since 1880. By that time Gustav Lindt had perfected conching, the process that makes chocolate smooth. Nearly every European chocolate maker adopted it. Bonajuto didn’t. They continued to make unconched chocolate, the texture crunchy in comparison. Nowadays that texture has come somewhat back in fashion. Here, you can experience it as it was and always has been. This gift box has bite sized truffles spiced with just a hint of red pepper, another typical addition to 19th century chocolate. An outstanding gift for a chocolate aficionado—or history buff.

Pignolis are traditional cookies from Sicily. They’re jampacked with nuts: almonds, hazelnuts, and pine nuts, the most flavorful we could find. We barely sweeten them with cane sugar and honey and the only thing holding that collection of ingredients together is egg whites—there’s not even any wheat flour mixed in, making for an explosion of toasty, nutty flavor (and making them gluten free at the same time).

50 Bucks farmstead confection

Goat's Milk Caramels from Vermont Big Picture Farm started in 2010 with a small herd of goats in the hills of southern Vermont. They use their fresh goat’s milk in their little creamery and confectionery. Their caramels have won a huge following of fans, including me. Caramels made with goat’s milk have a softer texture than traditional caramels, so you won’t lose a crown chewing one. Their flavor has bright notes on top of a big bass line of burnt sugar. Four flavors in each box: Sea Salt & Bourbon Vanilla, Maple Cream, Chai and Cocoa Latte.

a candy by any other name would taste as delicious 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.

A pair of Pistachio Prizes Pistachio Vanilla Brittle

Turkish Delight with Double Roasted Pistachios

We know good brittle. Zingerman’s Candy Company has been making it for more than decade and it’s the finest peanut brittle around. (The chocolate covered variety is my personal favorite—find it at zingermans.com) So the fact that we’re selling a brittle made in someone else’s kitchen is saying something. The creative confectioners at Sweetdragon Baking Company have mastered the tricky twin aspects of brittle, flavor and texture. Made with organic pistachios, vanilla from Madagascar and cane sugar, the flavor is sweet, light and nutty. The texture, put simply, doesn’t stick in your teeth.

P-PVB 5 oz box $22

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.

Roi extra virgin olive oil has been made in the mountain town of Badalucco in Liguria, Italy, by the Boeri family since 1900. The Boeris use an old stone mill to make the oil, the way all oils were made a century ago but practically none are today. This delicately flavored oil is the favorite of many of our crew. I regularly recommend it to folks who are beginning their olive oil education. At home, I love to pour Roi on freshly baked whole fish (half an hour at 350 degrees for a fish that weighs a pound).

Alziari Olive Oil

It's now been over two decades since I first fell in love with Alziari, the old shop in the historic center of Nice, on France’s Côte d’Azur.

Their extra virgin olive oil is exceptional and typically Niçoise—light, flowery and elegant but still full of character and charisma. I could use the same phrase to describe the tin it comes in. It's such a beautiful package that it makes one of the best gifts from our catalog; it needs no wrapping.

Maussane Olive Oil

zingerman’s exclusive

Peranzana Olive Oil We looked long and hard for an oil to call our own.

We finally chose this one.

Zingerman’s Olive Oil is made by Marina Colonna on her ancient estate in the Molise, a little over 100 miles due east of Rome. Made from hand picked Peranzana olives pressed the same day they’re taken from the tree, this extra virgin olive oil is hugely flavorful.

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.”

angels share

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 aged balsamic from la vecchia dispensa

Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni, 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.

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.

Agrodolce White Balsamic Vinegar

Agrodolce is super smooth, light on the tongue, subtle and very, very long in the finish. Technically it's not a balsamic, but you can use it in place of balsamic since it’s similarly soft and sweet.

Wherever it’s employed, your cooking will be enhanced by one of the most elegant vinegars I’ve tried in a really long time. It’s crafted by Sante Bertoni on his family estate outside of Modena, Italy.

Described as a bit of a mad scientist, Sr. Bertoni is giving the vinegar extra maturing just for us, making its flavor more complex before it hits your kitchen.

Cory Carman’s Grass Fed Beef Cory is a fourth-generation rancher running her family’s farm in the Wallowa valley in eastern Oregon. She can tell you all about the various components of grasses, and which parts contain more proteins or more carbohydrates, and how those components change as the grass grows. She uses that knowledge to put the right cattle on the right pastures—since her cattle never eat grain, getting the ideal nutrition from grass is a must. The result is beef that’s tender, juicy, and supremely flavorful.

Butcher’s Favorite “Women are leading the trend of sustainable ranching and raising grass-fed breeds of cattle in humane, ecological ways....

Cory Carman...has parlayed her parents’ prairie into a leading local provider of grass-fed beef.”

Bavette Steaks from Carman Ranch The bavette is a favorite among butchers for its huge flavor, but unknown to most of the rest of us—unless you’ve enjoyed one at a bistro in Paris, where it’s more common.

Black Truffle Mousse

Truffles are tricky. The food world reveres them. They’re rare and hard to find and that makes them expensive. And the flavor! The flavor is...unique. Honestly, it’s not for everyone, but that’s because most of us have only experienced bad, chemically derived imitations of the fabled tuber and too much of it at that. Real truffles used sparingly can contribute an enormous amount of umami and complexity that blends perfectly with the rich, creamy mousse. Made from chicken liver and just enough freshly foraged black truffles to give the mousse depth, even amid its airy texture. The star of any charcuterie board in the tri-state area.

Ortiz Tuna from the Bay of Biscay Tuna is one of the most popular foods we sell. It may seem surprising because here in the U.S., tinned tuna is a low-end commodity usually sold in supermarkets. In Spain it’s at the complete opposite of the culinary spectrum. Tuna in tins, especially these from the fourth-generation family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain's culinary crown. Ortiz's fish are all line caught—not netted—hand filleted at sea and quickly tinned by hand in good olive oil.

The olive oil is key. It adds flavor and makes the texture silky over time, unlike water, which tends to leach flavors from the fish. We went to Spain and selected a single great batch of Bonito loin, our best seller, for fullness of flavor, silky texture, and lingering sweetness.

Tradizionali Balsamics from Acetaia del Cristo

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

Tradizionale Balsamic from Modena

These are the vinegars about which legends have been woven. Buy one for a grand occasion. A golden anniversary. A wedding. A newborn. An election win. To qualify as Tradizionale, a each balsamic is evaluated by a panel of judges. Those awarded the White label have been aging at least a dozen years; the Gold label balsamics must have started aging at least 25 years ago. During the aging process, the vinegar is shifted from one type of wood to the next. Cherry, chestnut, oak and mulberry all leave their imprint on the flavor of the vinegar. The result is an almost unbelievable concentration of sweet-sour flavor in a dense, intense, brown-black vinegar that hints of berries, grapes, vanilla. There is nothing like it in the world. Only a tiny amount is released each year, in elegant glass flasks. Let loose a few drops on ripe strawberries fresh from the market. An amazing treat you'll always remember. All traditional balsamics from Modena are bottled in Ferrari designer Giorgio Guigiaro's streamlined, sexy bottle, then gift boxed. They may all look the same, but the vinegar is not. We buy ours from Acetaia del Cristo.

I think their vinegars are consistently fantastic. For a unique take on the tradition, try the balsamic aged all in barrels of a single wood: juniper (which has a woodsy quality that makes it great sprinkled on roasted meats) or cherry (which I find has a fruity sweetness that’s excellent for desserts).

Everyday Aged Balsamic Vinegars from La Vecchia Dispensa

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

2 Ways to Try the Full Range Balsamic Buyer’s Guide

Imagine you’re making a broth from scratch. When you start, it’s thinner and lighter in flavor. As it simmers, the liquid gets progressively thicker and the flavors get more and more intense. The same thing happens as balsamics age, only it takes years instead of hours. In general, a younger balsamic will have a consistency similar to wine and a bright, acidic flavor. As balsamics age for years at ambient temperatures in wooden barrels, each summer’s heat evaporates a bit of the liquid, giving the vinegar a thicker, more syrupy consistency and a sweeter, more complex flavor. Try a sip from a couple of different bottles and you’ll taste the difference right away. One age isn’t “better” than another— instead, different ages of balsamics are ideal for different uses in the kitchen.

The hot cocoa coffee cake was one of the first things I tried when I first started working at Zingerman’s. It isn’t just a breakfast food, I love to nibble on it any time of day. The best way to eat it is to warm it up slightly so the chunks of chocolate inside start to melt. I like to share, too—it’s my favorite gift to give to other chocolate lovers. It never disappoints. Small "nosher" sized cakes serve 5-7. Large "fresser" sized cakes serve 10-12. Each size comes packaged either in a colorful, cartooned gift box or a wooden gift crate.

Olympia Provisions Breakfast Sausage My husband was raised in the South. He and his family know their pork, and they have strong brand loyalty to their favorite sausages and bacons. But over the years, they’ve made a few exceptions for meats I’ve brought to family gatherings. This breakfast sausage more than passed muster—and now it’s become a family tradition to serve it at special brunches. For my part, what I love most about it is the texture: it’s got the snap from the natural casing, and a great grind: not too fine and mealy, or too big and chunky, but just right. And it’s got awesome flavor, with the pork perfectly balanced with the seasoning of sage and maple syrup.
