Zingerman's Really Not Too Late Holiday Catalog 2023 by Zingerman's Mail Order

e h The L e d of t eg n e

n Chri s i d tmas Sar

Gather round children and I will tell you a tale as old as the sea and as magical as Santa’s midnight ride. It was Christmas Eve when a weary fisherman—his boat loaded with the season’s most important catch— was struggling to return to port in rough waters. Just then a school of sardines approached to see what was the matter and if anything could be done.

“Will you help me get this catch back to my village?” the fisherman asked. “Otherwise the children will have nothing to enjoy on Christmas morning!” The sardines put their heads together and thought and thought. Finally, they knew what to do. “We can help!” the sardines said. With a mighty flick of their tails, they jumped in the boat, grabbed an oar and started rowing.

“Stroke!” shouted one sardine. “Stroke!” shouted another. “Stroke! Stroke! Stroke!”

Each pull of their fins brought them closer to land until the fisherman could finally see the port. ”Thank you!” he cried as the sardines swam away, waving their fins goodbye. “Merry Christmas!” they called. “I’ll never forget your kindness,” said the fisherman.

“I’ll give all the children tins of sardines for Christmas so they’ll know your story!” It wasn’t exactly what the sardines had in mind, but they thought it was a nice gesture. Even today if you go to the shore and listen really hard on Christmas Eve, you can still hear their little chorus sing out, “stroke! stroke! stroke!”

Christmas Sardines... really? REALLY!

We’re not reinventing tinned fish here. We’re just making it cuter—and more festive—for the holiday season. In Portugal, during the summer when fresh sardines are at their fattest and best, folks love to get fresh sardines and grill them up. But even at the height of sardine season, the Portuguese still love to buy and eat tinned sardines. It’s a bit like the difference between a fresh ham and a cured one: they’re different, but they’re both delicious. Here, we’ve got a tin of four to five plump, silver Portuguese sardines, packed in good olive oil. But what’ll really draw you in is the box, decorated with an adorable Santa sardine drawn by longtime Zingerman’s artist Ryan Stiner. No wrapping needed, it’s ready for its spot under the tree or stuffed in a stocking. P-SAR-HOL 125 g tin $8 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

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, and we’ll never ask you to return anything.

Holiday Virginia Peanuts

Reuben Kits

How do you improve on big, fat, perfectly roasted Virginia peanuts? Dress them in their holiday finest and watch ‘em tear up the party. The folks at Virginia Diner in Wakefield, VA use super large whole Virginia peanuts because they’re big, dense, and they’ve got a terrific crunch. We eat them by the handful at my house. Now that the tin they come in is dressed to impress with handsome holiday finery, they’ll be the star of all our gatherings this year, from Thanksgiving through New Year’s. With a tin this large, lots of revelers will get to crunch together. P-VDP-HOL 18 oz tin $16 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Zingerman's S piced Pecans Pecans toasted with butter, lots of freshly ground Tellicherry black pepper, Jamaican allspice, ground ginger, cloves and more. The nuts cluster together in little caramelly-spicy handfuls, making it way too easy to eat too many. A bag makes for great snacking. The classic red tin or the cheery holiday tin each make for an excellent gift.

Stopping ChEESES Brabander Goat Gouda from the Netherlands From the southern end of the Netherlands 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 and aged for about six months, the Brabander goat gouda is fresh tasting, with notes of caramel and cream. Or for something really special, every year Betty Koster of Amsterdam’s L’Amuse cheese shops sets aside a small trove of this cheese to age for another six months for about a year total. This Brabander Reserve amplifies all flavors: more caramel, more milkshake richness, more joy. When it’s gone, that’s it till next fall. A once-a-year treat. C-GGO classic by the pound $39 C-BTY reserve by the pound $45 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Colston Bassett Stilton from England Creaminess is the hallmark of great Stilton cheese. Colston Bassett Stilton is the creamiest of British Stiltons—one of the world’s great blue cheeses and the traditional holiday cheese of England. Our wheels of Colston Bassett were selected just for us by England’s great cheese exporter, Neal’s Yard Dairy. C-STI by the pound $49 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Whitney Cheese from Vermont I love mountain-style cheeses like Comté and Gruyère (find them both at zingermans.com) so I’ve been itching to bring Whitney to our shelves for awhile. The fact that it won “best in show” at the 2022 American Cheese Society conference had nothing to do with it (though it certainly doesn’t hurt!). Whitney is made from the raw milk of Jasper Hill Farm’s own herd of grass fed cows. The outside of the wheels are rubbed with a magical melange of naturally cultured brine and spent yeast from a nearby winery, imparting a fruity, floral, funky aroma to the paste inside. Soft, a little sweet, nutty, with lovely buttery notes that linger into a savory finish. An easy award winner in anyone’s book. C-WHT by the pound $39 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Briar Summit Cheese from New York Nettle Meadow Farm is a bucolic bit of land in upstate New York. They’re a sanctuary for farm animals, a working farm, a restaurant, and a cheese company all right there in the Adirondacks. They bring all those attributes to bear on this quaint pyramid of a bloomy soft cheese. They take sheep’s, goat’s and cow’s milk, then add cream to the mix so that it’s ultra rich with butterfat, and then they infuse a bit of raspberry leaf tea in as a way to cut through the richness and leave a sort of woodsy/earthy flavor in the finish. This will loom large on any cheeseboard and grab everyone’s attention with its figure and flavor. C-BRS 8 oz pyramid $30 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Quinta Cheese from California Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese has been producing wheels of (mostly blue) cheese for decades, but for this little wheel they turned to the luscious, buttery, spoonable end of the cheese spectrum. These small wheels are wrapped with spruce bark and pressed with bay leaves imbuing their woodsy, deep flavors into the gooey paste of the cheese. To serve, carefully cut a portion of the top from the rest of the cheese and serve with a spoon. It’ll be the star of the cheeseboard as everyone snaps photos of how luxurious and rich it all looks (and tastes). C-QTA 5 oz wheel $14 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

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 my advice is BUY! One of the most luscious and rich elixirs you've ever sipped. This is hot chocolate adults can keep to ourselves. P-ROV 330 g box, 8 servings $25

Marabissi has been baking for over 70 years in Tuscany, including these classic holiday cookies from Siena.

Northern Italian Hazelnut Fudge 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.

Lebkuchen Cookies Sandy Lee fell in love with lebkuchen, the traditional German Christmas cookie, while living in Berlin. 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, with foxes walking through a snowy forest scene, will be a keepsake for years to come. P-LEB 5 cookie tin, 1 lb $45 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Banana Breads

Babka is a sweet loaf, both fluffy and rich, kind of like a light textured coffee cake with a dense filling swirled throughout. In the late 19th Century, babka was made with leftover challah bread dough wrapped around nuts or jam. Now the master bakers at Zingerman’s Bakehouse have given babka a flavor update worthy of the new millennium. Rich with butter, swirling with chocolate and cinnamon, and studded with golden sultana raisins, our babka bursts with chocolatey sweetness. Wrapped in tissue and gift boxed.

Stollen Our delicious German-style holiday cake is a long-standing Zingerman’s holiday tradition for folks looking for unique dessert ideas, great gifts and fine food for weekend brunch. If you haven’t had stollen and wonder what all the fuss is about, just take a look at the ingredients: real butter, Bacardi® white rum, glacéed lemons, oranges, cherries, fresh lemon and orange zest, fresh lemon juice, almonds, golden raisins, Red Flame raisins, real vanilla and our very scent-sual Indonesian cinnamon. Toasted and spread with a little sweet butter, it’s delicious and is perhaps rivaled only by our own coffee cake as a great afternoon snack cake. Each stollen comes wrapped in a muslin bag. It serves 6–8 and, barring extensive snacking, lasts for weeks. G-STO gift bagged stollen $40 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

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. Comes with serving instructions.

Rustic Retreat Dinner Gift Box

In Spanish, tapas sort of means snacks, but that’s an inexact translation. In Spain, 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 with a glass of crisp wine.

A pasta dinner that’s not a cliché. It might seem simple, but when each ingredient is this good, the result would meet the approval of even the most discerning Italian nonna. This gift boxed set includes Rustichella Spaghetti, Il Mongetto Tomato Sauce, our Paesano Bread, hand cut Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese, and a pair of brownies for dessert: one Magic Brownie with walnuts, and one no-nut Black Magic Brownie. G-DIN rustic retreat gift box $100

bacon of the Month Club 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.

Coffee Cakes 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.

It’s very impressive and extremely delicious. And it lasts. In theory, a week after delivery, wrapped, it’ll still be soft and scrumptious, melting in the mouths of a hungry crew.

Breads

from Zingerman's Bakehouse

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. 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.

TOP 3 CELEBRATION BREADS Chocolate Cherry Bread Our chocolate cherry bread starts with a naturally leavened dough made with organic flour and a heaping helping of cocoa powder. Then we fold in dozens of Michigan dried cherries and chunks of bean to bar 68% Nicaraguan chocolate from French Broad Chocolates in North Carolina. That chocolate is key—it brings together the lovely light chocolatiness, the tartness of the cherries, and the delicate, acoustic bass notes of the natural sour starter. Without any sugar added, the bread is not overly sweet. Warmed in the oven or carefully toasted, the aroma is exceptionally enticing. It’s especially excellent when a warm slice is topped with a scoop of good vanilla ice cream. Or to gild the lily, it’s the base of top tier bread pudding. B-CHO 1¼ lb loaf $20 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Cranberry Pecan Bread Around Ann Arbor, Cranberry Pecan Bread is a holiday classic. Each loaf is loaded with over half a pound of dried cranberries and toasty pecans, all stuffed in a tangy, naturally leavened bread dough made from organic flour. Making a loaf takes 18 hours, giving loads of time for flavor development. Eating a loaf with a hungry group often takes less than 18 minutes. 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. Toasted with a smear of good butter, it’s hard to beat for breakfast. And—stay with me here—it’s an excellent shell for an adventurous chicken (or turkey!) salad sandwich. B-CRA 1¼ lb handmade loaf $20 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Craquelin Bread Craquelin is the national bread of Belgium: a sweet, rich loaf with a crunchy, sugary swirl throughout the middle. At Zingerman’s Bakehouse, we start with our brioche dough made with organic flour and enriched with plenty of eggs and real butter. Then we give the recipe a sweet, fruity twist with the addition of fresh orange zest and sugar cubes soaked in Grand Marnier® that get swirled into each loaf. Eating a slice is like having a cinnamon roll flavored with orange instead of spice, with the rich, fruity flavor seeping 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. It makes for excellent toast, or extraordinary French toast. B-QUE 1 lb loaf $38 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Sourdough

Paesano

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

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

SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Farm

Jewish Rye

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. B-FRM-RND 3 lb round $20 B-FRM-LOF 1½ lb loaf $12

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. B-RYE 1½ lb loaf $10 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

parmesan pepper

Pecan Raisin

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

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 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Meat & Fish Most American meat comes from animals bred to turn feed into flesh as efficiently as possible. They’ve bred out their ability to survive the elements (solution: cram them cheek by jowl into enormous barns) or to fight disease (solution: pump them full of antibiotics). They also bred out most of the flavor. The good news is that there are a handful of farmers out there today who are breaking from the industry norms and turning back the clock on meat. They’re raising heritage breed animals that were selected for flavor, not efficiency. They’re raising them outdoors, on pasture, where they have plenty of room to roam and they eat what they’ve always eaten rather than laboratory-developed rations. All that extra time, care, and effort can pay off with amazing flavor.

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. It comes from next to the flank, so it’s great for grilling up rare like a flank steak. Beefy, juicy, with slightly sweet flavor. Ships frozen. M-BAV-2 2 steaks, 10–12 oz each $80 M-BAV-4 4 steaks, 10–12 oz each $150 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

New York Strip Steaks from Carman Ranch Strip steaks—also known as Kansas City strips, top loin or strip loin steaks—are a perennial favorite because they strike a balance between being tender and packed with flavor. They’re equally outstanding on the grill or in a cast iron pan on the stove top. These grass-fed, grass-finished strips that we get from Cory Carman and her team are deeply savory, with earthy flavor and a great mineral tang. Ships frozen. M-STP-2 two steaks, 10–12 oz each $75 M-STP-4 four steaks, 10–12 oz each $135

Red Wattle Pork Chops Our heritage Red Wattle porterhouse pork chops are over an inch thick and look like a T-bone steak. The flavor is famously sweet, in part due to a luscious band of melting fat. Great on the grill, they also cook up fantastically on the stove top. From pastured pigs that root and roam and never receive hormones or antibiotics. Ships frozen.

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 offer a few different options from Ortiz. First up is Bonito (AKA Albacore) loin, our best seller, with full flavor, silky texture, and lingering sweetness. Next is the Yellowfin loin, which has a fuller, richer flavor. Or finally, for the richest, most sensual fish you can find in a tin, go for the Bonito ventresca (AKA belly), which is some of the richest, most sensual fish you can find in a tin.

Pleasant Ridge Reserve Cheese from Wisconsin

Cabot Clothbound Cheddar from Vermont

Pimento Cheese S pread from Michigan

Cheddar was originally wrapped in cloth, not dipped in wax. Cheddars aged in cloth have a complexity and length of flavor that’s unmatched by wax. The wheels we get are made by Cabot Farms in Vermont, and then aged at Jasper Hill Cellars. The Jasper Hill team specially selects wheels just for us with a beefy, brothy flavor. Aged at least 9 months, it’s a sturdy cheese with a complex, lingering finish you can’t shake. C-CCC by the pound $38

There are probably more versions of pimento cheese spread in the South than there are grandmothers. The classic version from Zingerman’s Creamery is a salty/tangy/ spicy mix of Cabot Vermont Cheddar, Hellmann’s mayo, pimento peppers and spices. At the table it can assume as many high flavor food jobs as you can dream up: on a burger, in some mac and cheese, or just simply swept up to your mouth on celery ribs. C-PMC 8 oz tub $13

Pleasant Ridge Reserve is made from the milk of a single herd of cows that graze on the rolling Wisconsin hillsides. After aging for a year, the cheese is like a European mountain cheese: fruity in an apple-y sort of way—rich, deep and sweet. Production is very small— about 6,000 wheels a year. We work closely with maker Andy Hatch, tasting together to select specific days of cheese to pick the most flavorful of the bunch. C-PRR by the pound $39

Giorgio Cravero’s Parmigiano Reggiano from Italy

Essex Manchego from Spain

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. C-VER by the pound $35

Essex Manchego is a farmstead cheese: it’s made on a farm using only the milk of their own herd of sheep, deep in the heart of La Mancha. It 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. It pairs well with almonds, plums and, of course, Spanish ham. C-EMA by the pound $42

There’s a huge difference between olive oils. Some, like those sold at most grocery stores, are fine for cooking. But when you seek an oil for its flavor it’s a different story. We focus on estate olive oils with great flavor, the kind you’ll notice when you dress a salad, finish a fish, or pour on grilled bread.

Peranzana Olive Oil from southern Italy 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. O-ZIN 500 ml bottle $33 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Roi Olive Oil from northern Italy 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 great on freshly baked whole fish (half an hour at 350 degrees for a fish that weighs a pound), in delicate vinaigrettes, or anywhere you want good oil that’s not going to overpower a dish. O-ROI 1 liter bottle $49 O-ROI-500 500 ml bottle $30 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Valgiano Olive Oil from Tuscany Valgiano is grown and pressed north of Lucca on the far west of Tuscany, about twenty miles inland from the Tyrrhenian sea. Lucca’s oils have long been prized. In The Food of Italy (published in 1971 but still a great book for traditional Italian foodways), Waverly Root writes, “The greatest gastronomic glory of Lucca is its olive oil, the finest in Italy.” The latest harvest is mellow and buttery at the start before it turns to a citrusy bitterness with grassy green notes. Finally, the pepper heat grows to a spicy finish. O-VAL 500 ml $65 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Agrumato Lemon Oil from southern Italy 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. O-AGR 200 ml bottle $39 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

GIFT-WORTHY OILS Alziari Olive Oil in its famous tin

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. O-ALZ 1 liter tin $60 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Colonna Molensis Olive Oil in a striking amphora We’ve sold Marina Colonna’s oils for decades. Her Peranzana olive oil (read more about it on the facing page) has been our house oil for years. But around the holidays, we bring in her special edition Molensis extra virgin olive oil. The gorgeous amphora bottle holds a blend of olives from Marina’s estate, each selected to produce an oil that’s fruity and grass with a bit of a peppery, fiery kick that builds as it lingers in the finish. Dark, elegant, slightly mysterious looking, beautiful, this bottle of oil looks like it should be presented and stored in red velvet and tied with satin ribbon. An impressive gift for the olive oil lover on your list. O-HCA 750 ml bottle $55 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Gift-worthy Italian Olive Oils in Handmade Ceramic Bottles Puglia, the heel of Italy’s boot, is known in Italy for its rustic, rural beauty and beaches, and for being the birthplace of burrata cheese, crunchy taralli crackers (online), and the little ear-shaped pasta known as orecchiette. But I’m willing to bet that soon it’ll be known for something else: ceramics. Specifically, gorgeous, handcrafted ceramic bottles holding oustanding olive oils. We have two extra virgin Puglian olive oils, each made on a single estate using a single olive varietal: the local powerhouse Coratina, a coveted varietal for making grassy, bold, peppery oils. The first oil comes to us from the estate of Elia Pellegrino. Called TyPuglia, it comes in a limited edition ceramic bottle hand crafted in the studio of Elia’s friend, Michele Cataldo. Choose from two colors: tomato red or sky blue. The second oil comes from Frantoio Muraglia, in a bottle adorned with a swirl of vibrant, bright stripes. Each bottle makes a stunning gift, and the oils inside can stand up to beans, pasta, red meats, or fresh tomatoes smashed on crusty toast.

Balsamic Vinegars from La Vecchia Dispensa Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni, 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.

Globe-Trotting Gifts Irresistible Italian Confection

D. Barbero Torrone Nougat from Piedmont Davide 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.

Brilliant British Dessert 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. P-PUD 454 g in ceramic bowl, serves 8 $40 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Tremendous Turkish Olive Oil Oro di Milas Olive Oil

Along the southwestern coast of Turkey bordering the Aegean sea, Emine and Mark Colin produce extra virgin olive oil from Memecik olives exclusive to the historic Milas region. The olives are hand-harvested and pressed within eight hours. The variety is known for green olive and almond aromas, and the buttery, nutty flavor of the oil builds to a prickly peppery, piney finish. On the smoother end of smooth and assertive, a drizzle adds complexity to hearty salads, roasted vegetables, and grilled fish. The sleek black bottle makes a lovely gift.

Pleasing Portuguese Holiday Treat

Sugarplums from Portugal

Straight from the rhymes of The Night Before Christmas, Greengage plums are harvested in Portugal in late summer then submerged in sugar syrup, where they rest for six weeks, slowly absorbing sweetness. Finally, they’re laid in the sun to dry. The long, complex process makes a candied plum. Slightly sweet, green and fuzzy on the outside like a peach. They have a pit, so watch out. Remarkably, the texture is firm, like a fruit you’ve just picked. A venerable British Christmas tradition. P-UGA 9 plums in wood crate $45 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Terrific Taiwanese Fruit Dried Pearl Guava

Pearl Guava is a white-fleshed, pear-shaped tropical fruit. It’s commonly eaten in Taiwan, but I’ve never tasted anything quite like this dried version from Yun Hai. They work with independent Taiwanese farmers who tend every tree with great care, including covering individual fruits in bags to prevent pests. To make the dried guava, the fruit is specially harvested in the fall when it’s firmer and crunchier to ensure the ideal final texture. The fruit is cut into thick strips and dried at low temperatures, which results in pieces that are chewy without being leathery. As soon as you open the bag, the floral aroma wafts out. And the flavor! It has a warm spiced quality that makes me think of clove, but there’s no spice added—that’s just the natural flavor of the fruit. Pair it with tea or serve it on a cheese board and revel in this special taste of Taiwan. P-GVA 100 g bag $16 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Great Global Flavors Épices de Cru Grand Spice Set & Book Over two dozen metal tins, translucent tops, each filled with a shock of spice bursting with aromas: floral, toasty, bright, rich, herbal, earthy. What really steals the show, though, is the taste. Ethné and Philippe de Vienne’s Montreal spice business, Épices de Cru, has what I think are hands-down the best spices around. This kit has 26 of their house blends sourced from around the globe, enough to keep a curious cook busy for months. It comes with a 143-page book featuring 60 of their well-tested recipes. Makes a stunning gift. Note the spices are whole, which makes them last much longer. They only need a quick grind with a mortar and pestle or food processor.

Not Your average box of Chocolates

“In my opinion, this is the best chocolate you can find in the world.” CHEF ERIC RIPERT

Éclat Chocolate Mondiants

J. Patrice Chocolates

A mendiant is a confection the French made to celebrate the four monastic orders, the names of which I’ll leave to you to Google and quiz your friends about. It’s a thin chocolate circle, creatively topped with fruits, nuts, or seeds. Chocolate maker Chris Curtin, making his version in eastern Pennsylvania, has removed the religious overtones and stuffed the flavorings inside the chocolate discs. He dubbed his creation “mondiants.” They’re thin, crisp, just over a couple inches across and a knife’s blade thick. He’s packed an assortment: milk chocolate with peanut butter, milk chocolate with hazelnut, dark chocolate with cacao nibs, dark chocolate with caramel. P-ECL box of 16 mondiants $45

From her studio in Wyandotte, Michigan Jamie LeBoeuf and her small team of chocolate artists create impressionistic confections from a rainbow palette of ingredients and colors. Each box contains six flavors: Salt & 5 Star Black Pepper Blend Caramel, Agrumato Orange, Midnight Sky, Hot Chocolate, Toffee Nut Latte, and Milk Biscotti. As delicious as they are beautiful.

Chocolate Covered Walnuts

Clementines in Chocolate

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. P-CCW 12 walnut box $25

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.

Hazelnut Cremini Truffles

Tahini Meltaway Chocolates Peanut butter cups have nothing on these tahini meltaways. Lagusta Yearwood and her team craft artisanal chocolate confections using ethically sourced chocolate from Ecuador. For these meltaway bonbons, they fold creamy, nutty tahini into a layer of white chocolate and a layer of milk chocolate. The velvety, mousse-like filling is enveloped in a dark chocolate shell lightly sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds and sea salt for contrasting bitterness and crunch. Once you take a bite, the filling melts quickly in your mouth into a lusciously sweet and salty sensation. Each box comes with nine diamond-shaped meltaways. P-TMY box of 9 meltaways $40

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 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate Truffles

Bonajuto Chocolates

Arriba Nacional is an heirloom cacao from Ecuador that’s celebrated for its fruity and floral flavors. Closer to home in Empire, Michigan, chocolatier Grocer’s Daughter sources this rare chocolate for their confections. Just for the holiday season, we partnered with them on a collection of dark chocolate truffles stuffed with local Michigan ingredients. The first three flavors come from their shop: herbal Rosemary, tart and fruity Hummingbird tea, and boozy Maple Bourbon. The remaining three flavors were created just for us: spicy Zingerman’s Spiced Pecan Gianduja, milk chocolate ganache blended with Zingerman’s High Flyer Coffee, and Hazelnut Fig Caramel. Each brightly colored box has a dozen total truffles, two of each flavor. P-GDC-TRF 12 truffles, boxed $55

Bonajuto has been making chocolate in the baroque Sicilian town of Modica since 1880. Since the beginning they’ve made unconched chocolate, which makes the texture crunchy, not smooth. Nowadays that texture has come somewhat back in fashion. Here, you can experience it as it was and always has been, in two ways. First, a colorful box of eighteen individually wrapped squares of chocolate made with only cacao and cane sugar. And second, a box of six or twenty bite-sized truffles that are are spiced with just a hint of red pepper.

Holiday

Fruit Cakes

While England’s national holiday cake has become a cheap industrial laughing stock, these are another species altogether. Crafted by Robert Lambert in Wisconsin from rare citrus that he candies himself, a slice cut thin while the cake is cool looks like a stained glass window and is a taste revelation.

Dark Rare Citrus Fruit Cake

White Rare Citrus Fruit Cake

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. P-RLD 1 lb, 6 inches long, serves 8– 10 $80

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. P-KUY 1 lb, 6 inches long, serves 8– 10 $80

Springerle Cookies

Made for decades by the sisters of St. Benedict Monastery of Ferdinand, Indiana. Springerle cookies originated in the Swabia region of southwestern Germany. Images and icons are pressed into the dough before baking, and then the dough is allowed to dry for up to eighteen hours. That extra time drying gives the cookie a hearty texture. They have a slight anise flavor without being overly sweet. Traditionally served for Christmas, they’re great for dipping in coffee or to please the lovers of old world flavors.

Traditional Panettone from Italy

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. This is a classic take on panettone, studded with bright pockets of candied citrus.

Zingerman’s Toasted Pecan Pie There are good pecan pies and there are great ones. The better versions take the time and expense to tend to the details. Like real butter in the crust, each one rolled out by hand. Great brown sugar—ours is an unrefined muscovado sugar from Mauritius—for the filling. And of course pecans—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. The pie is 9 inches in diameter, and serves 8–12.

Marrons Glacés from Italy

Summerdown Chocolate Peppermint Creams

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. P-MRN gift box of 8 $50

Heirloom Black Mitcham peppermint grown under the English summer sun, picked so fresh and vibrant it practically hums, then paired with dark chocolate in two ways.

The New Standard For Holiday Ham Peach Smoked Duroc Hams from Smoking Goose Forget the pineapple. These hams are showstoppers without the extra garnishes. Smoking Goose is a fantastic producer of slow cured and smoked meats, salumi, and sausages in Indianapolis. They are conscientious about the sourcing of all the meat they use, working only with farmers who meet their standards for ethics and sustainability. To make these Peach Smoked Hams, they’ve taken that attention to detail a step further by sourcing all of the pork from a single farm: Gunthorp Farms in northern Indiana. Greg Gunthorp is a 4th generation pig farmer. He raises heritage Duroc breed pigs that spend their whole lives out rooting around on pasture. He never uses any hormones or antibiotics. Greg’s attention to detail pays off with huge flavor—his Duroc pork is earthy, nutty, bold, yet clean and juicy. The team at Smoking Goose takes the raw Duroc hams and cures them with pepper, coriander, mustard seed, honey, bay leaf and a dose of mead from Arvins Acres, a nearby meadery in Delphi, Indiana. Then they slowly smoke the hams 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. A Zingerman’s exclusive. The hams are boneless and unsliced. Shipped frozen. May take a day to defrost, or may arrive thawed and ready to stash in the fridge.

The collection includes a four to five pound boneless Heritage Breed Ham, Manchester Cheese, Pimento Cheese Spread, Dutch Pril Gouda, Rustic Bakery Sea Salt & Olive Oil Flatbread Crackers, Moroccan Olives, Virginia Diner Peanuts, and Spiced Pecans.
