Sea Salt Cremini Chocolate & Hazelnut Squares
Honey Child, When I was younger, I would have made you a Valentine out of construction paper and stickers and glitter. It would have said all my young heart could muster and maybe you might have kissed me on the cheek. Now I’m older, the stakes are so much higher, and cut out hearts aren’t enough. But these luscious morsels of hazelnut praline enrobed in a blend of milk and dark chocolate are a good start. A touch of sea salt compliments the sweetness and a bit of olive oil luxuriates its texture. Each bite, I hope, will win your love until I finish that castle you deserve.

the most dangerous love in america Forbidden Foods Club
Sparkle Eyes, Before I met you, I’d seen much of this world and all it had to offer. I spelunked mysterious caverns, summited treacherous peaks, and surfed wild ocean waves, but I’d never explored the depths of my heart until I met you. Like a brilliant lantern bathing the world with your warm glow, you have lit the crevices of my soul and shown me the light. Let’s discover this world together. The Forbidden Foods Club is the perfect way for us to dance with culinary danger, every month. Life with you is an adventure. Let’s conquer it together.

Bacon of the Month Club
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.

Valentine's dinner. You could go out for a steak, sure. It'll probably be good. But will it be this good? Cooked yourself. Salted and peppered. Maybe a dab of herbed butter to finish. The beef from Carman Ranch. From eastern Oregon, where the cattle spend their whole lives out on pasture, eating grass without hormones or subtherapeutic antibiotics. It's a splurge, but it will be the best steak in town that night.
butcher's favorite Grass-Fed Bavette Steak
The bavette is a favorite among butchers for its huge flavor, but unknown to most of the rest of us—unless you're a lucky one who's enjoyed one over a glass of Côtes du Rhône 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 or for tossing in a stir fry. Beefy, juicy, with slightly sweet flavor. From Carman Ranch. Ships frozen.

Dry-Aged Cowboy Cut Ribeye
The cowboy cut has a couple inches of bone sticking out, giving you a handle to hold onto. The steaks are dry-aged for two weeks, creating huge flavor with a deep mineral tang. Like all our steaks, it's entirely grass-fed like a cow should be, but features the marbling of corn fed beef. Bone in, 2 inches thick, serves an army. From Carman Ranch. Ships frozen.

brazilIAn secREt Grass-Fed Coulotte Steak
The coulotte is a little known cut in North America and Europe—except amongst a select few in the know, like chefs, butchers, and Brazilian expats (who go crazy for it, though they'd call it picanha). It's a fairly lean cut from the top sirloin that's nicely tender with deep, beefy flavor with a subtle herbaceous quality. An outstanding choice for grilling. From cattle that spend their whole lives on pasture eating grass at Carman Ranch. Ships frozen. M-CUL-2 2 steaks, 6-7 oz each $40 M-CUL-4 4 steaks, 6-7 oz each $75 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

Chocolate + Nuts 4ever flavor expLOsion
Chocolate Covered Walnuts
From the Périgord region of southwestern France, where walnut orchards blanket the landscape and the locals make walnut everything, from cakes to wine to salami. Here, the walnuts are 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 $16 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

In Spanish, tapas sort of means snacks, but that’s an inexact translation. In English you wouldn’t eat a meal of snacks. In Spain there’s no problem doing just that. There, tapas can start a meal or substitute for it entirely. The ingredients in this collection of open-and-serve delectables are not all Spanish, but the idea is. Eat them as the Spanish do, as evening makes its way indoors, with a glass of crisp wine. Packed by hand in our classic cartoon Zingerman's box, including: Zingerman's Farm Bread, La Quercia’s Borsellino Salami, Spanish Olive Oil and Anise Crispy Tortas, Marcona Almonds, Tuna-Stuffed Piquillo Peppers from Basque Country and Portuguese Sardines.

A dozen THings that make for beTter tasting baked goOds 1. Butter Tastes Better You can’t tell just from looking at a cookie or a piece of cake whether it’s been baked with butter or shortening. The bottom line on baked goods’ flavor is that butter tastes better. It’s also about ten times more costly, so more and more commercial bakeries are shifting towards less expensive shortenings or margarine. You can taste and smell the difference—the sweet, rich scent of butter is right up front in a Bostock, followed by almond and orange. Shortening, on the other hand, has no aroma to speak of. Good pastry should smell good.
2. Better Butter The Bakehouse doesn’t just use any butter. Many of our baked goods start with sweet butter from Grassland. Tastes better, with less water, and more flavor. There’s no way around it—the better the butter the better the baked goods.
3. Belgian Chocolate There’s chocolate. And then there’s Belgian chocolate. Our chocolate chunk cookies are loaded with big bites of Callebaut Belgian chocolate. Higher in cocoa content, Callebaut is chocolatier, richer, more delicious than the inexpensive, mass-produced chocolates you’ll find in most baked goods.
4. Toasted...
Currant Scone
Buttery, creamy dough loaded with tangy dried currants.
Lemon Scone

Ginger Scone
Lots of spicy, crystallized ginger.
Country Scone

Bostock Buttery brioche with orange syrup and almond frangipane.
A thick slice of buttery brioche bread brushed with orange syrup, spread with almond frangipane cream, sprinkled with almonds and baked. Rich and buttery, not overly sweet with a featherly light texture, like citrusy-almondy French toast you can eat out of hand.

Cheddar Herb Scone
AND what's this?
Savory with Vermont cheddar and fresh rosemary.
Hand pies just got turned up to 11 with the Patti Pocket: our bakers take our flakiest all-butter pie dough, fill it with seedless raspberry preserves, bake it a golden brown and garnish with a drizzle of raspberry glaze.

StRatospheric SPREAd Koeze’s Cream Nut Peanut Butter
Koeze’s Cream Nut Peanut Butter isn’t whipped full of hydrogenated oils and sweeteners. It has been made with the same two ingredients since 1925: outstanding Virginia peanuts, and a pinch of sea salt. The process hasn’t changed much since then, either. The peanuts are still roasted in small batches in vintage coffee roasters. That traditional product is not an air-whipped, sugarfilled concoction but a natural, intense, rich, mouthwatering sensation. Spreading some in a sandwich with jelly—or honey, or marshmallow cream, whatever you prefer—sends it through the stratosphere. P-BUT 17 oz jar, smooth $9.50 P-CRU 16.5 oz jar, crunchy $9.50 4 or more of either, $7 each SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE
jam, elEvated Early Glow Strawberry Preserves Unlike most jams, sugar isn’t the first ingredient in American Spoon’s Early Glow Preserves. Instead, about 60% of each jar is tiny, supremely flavorful Early Glow strawberries. They’re a bit fickle to grow, but they have the ultimate in strawberry flavor. The aroma is amazing. And that intense strawberry flavor lingers a long, long time. Familiar because it’s a flavor we grew up with, but also exciting because it’s so much bolder than nearly any other jam out there. Slathering some into a PB&J is a nostalgia bomb for the sandwiches you wish you grew up with. P-STR 9.5 oz jar $13 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

the pasta that wilL change your Tuesday night Rustichella Pastas
Rustichella pasta, from Italy’s Abruzzo region, is just as easy to cook as any other pasta but has about 100 times more flavor. Hard durum semolina is extruded through bronze dies so it has a scruffy, rough surface, perfect for holding sauce. It’s dried at low temperatures for three to four days, depending on the shape, which gives it a dense, chewy texture. Rustichella takes a quick weeknight pasta dinner from ordinary to extraordinary.

All of the milk comes from their own herd of brown Bruna Sola cows, an old breed that produces milk with more butterfat—and more flavor.

Spanish line-caught tuna Ortiz Tunas 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 fourthgeneration 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. 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.

gone fishIN’ Fishy Box of Fishes
National treasure Portuguese Sardines Tuna is our top-selling tinned seafood, but sardines aren't too far behind. It's surprising to me since sardines are not a big part of the popular food scene in America. This is perhaps the classic case of tinned food seen as poor, low-quality food. Before college students ate 75 cent ramen, they ate 10 cent sardines. Forget that stereotype. Here, four or five tender, perfect sardines, come nested in a tin of olive oil, and their flavor is extraordinary—the prize of Portugal, revered there as a kind of national seafood treasure. We offer pure olive oil (classic style, illustrated) or extra virgin olive oil, which has the effect of making the flavor more buttery, less metallic; in a way it's less fishy.

pâté of the sea Scallop Rillettes
Similar to pâté, but instead of using pork or duck to make a rich spread, scallops are employed to make a rillette that is light and smooth, with just a touch of sweetness and an undeniable flavor of the sea. Spread some on open faced sandwiches for lunch or a dinner side dish, perhaps with a few capers, lemon zest and a twist of black pepper. Outstanding fast food. Keep a couple jars in the cabinet for late night snacking or to satisfy impromptu guests. P-SRL 100 g jar $15 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE
seafOod Sausage Portuguese Squid
Three or four 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.

I’ve always passed on anchovies more than I should because opening a whole tin means a month of user’s guilt. I have to stare down a dozen fillets every time I open the fridge, deciding how to use them. Now I can have all the great flavor without the commitment. A bachelor’s anchovy dream. Cleaned and deboned, here are four to six fillets of anchovies, fished from the Galician Sea and cured in northern Spain. Perfect for a Caesar salad, or on top of a midnight egg-salad sandwich.

tinned fish debutante Grilled Branzino The newest star to our cast of tinned fish. Traditionally, fisherman would grill fresh branzino (what they call Mediterranean sea bass) and enjoy it doused with olive oil. Simple. The oil brings out the soft, sweet, delicate flavor of the fish while giving the flesh of the fish a delicate, flakey texture. Toss the whole tin (fish and oil) with pasta, a squeeze of lemon and some chunks of parm for an easy, delicious dinner. Or serve as an appetizer with some good crusty bread.

Alziari Olive Oil
Peranzana 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. O-ALZ 1 liter tin $50
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.

Petraia Olive Oil
FRANK'S Managing Partner at Zingerman's Bakehouse
In the late summer of 2007 I was fortunate enough to be part of a tour of food producers in Puglia. We were staying near Andria and on our first day we visited the farm of the Pellegrino family. We toured the fields, watched the olives pressed and tasted a variety of oils that they produced. When we got to the organic olive oil Petraia, I fell in love with the intensity of its taste and aroma. While I had known that we had this oil in Ann Arbor, I had never tasted it before. I’m happy to say that I have been using it exclusively since returning from that trip. Each time I dip a piece of Paesano bread into it I return to that afternoon in the olive groves and the lunch we had with Elia Pellegrino and his family. O-PET 500 ml $28
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. O-AGR 200 ml bottle $36 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

Fire Cider Vinegar Open the cap, and the first whiff of this ochre-colored vinegar will ignite your senses from the soles of your feet to your medulla oblongata (whatever it is, it will be ignited.) After collecting your blown-off socks from the other side of the room, examine the bottle. While you won’t find a triple X on the label, Fire Cider Vinegar comes from a long, northeastern tradition of mixing vinegars with various fruits, vegetables, peppers, and honey to create a down-home cure-all that would be taken to freeze fevers and burn off colds. Pour a small swig into a glass and knock it back, just as they would have 200 years ago. A bassline of ginger here and a guitar lick of horseradish there, fronted by the apple cider vinegar and driven on the habanero pepper drumming its way to the dramatic conclusion: an inevitable, inescapable exclamation from your mouth and a single tear shed by your great-great-greatgreat-grandfather as he suddenly realizes how hearty his progeny will be. At home at a Texas barbeque or a Pennsylvanian picnic, pour it on some french fries or season your steak with it. Or, keep it on your shelf just in case you need to win a game of truth or dare.

balAnced balsamic
el secrEto
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 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. Their 10 year aged balsamic is the most intensely flavored balsamic of its age I’ve ever tried. (You won’t see the age of the vinegar on the bottle because of some funny Italian laws, just the vinegar’s density.) 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. Highly recommended. V-10Y 250 ml bottle $35
While balsamic has garnered the publicity, specially aged sherry vinegar sits aging in oak barrels in southern Spain waiting to be discovered. Sanchez Romate draws upon 300 years of experience making sherry and sherry vinegar to blend different ages of vinegar (from three to fifty years old) to create a sweet, soft, mouth-tingling flavor. It became a staple in my home long ago, but for centuries before that it became the choice of the royal family of Spain—and the Vatican. Add a few drops to creamy tomato soup or a cold summer gazpacho. Drop a dash on a salad of ripe, sweet, summer tomatoes. Mix it into a classic cocktail sauce and stand back for the fireworks. I’ve found it makes good food extraordinary. V-25Y 750 ml bottle $25

Bread by mAiL? meEt The zEro RIsk loaf. I know, it sounds crazy. It sounded nuts in 1992 when we started baking. Still does today. But we ship more bread than any other food we sell, always have. We bake them with minimal ingredients, often just flour, water, salt, and natural sour starter. We take our time making them—up to 18 hours for tangy loaves like French Mountain and Sourdough. And we bake them in a stone hearth oven, which gives the bread a crisper, more flavorful crust. There’s not a bad loaf among them and the real gems—traditional peasant loaves like Paesano, Farm, and Jewish Rye—will rearrange your tastebuds, redefining what you think bread can be. If you’re not totally convinced but curious to see what the fuss is about, rest assured you can try it without risk. I guarantee you’ll love it. If you don’t, I’ll refund or re-ship, no questions asked.

french mountain bread Farm Bread Hands down, this is my favorite bread and probably my favorite food period. It is my desert island food for sure. I love it for just eating, salami sandwiches, grilled cheese and breakfast toast with tons of butter and preserves. This bread is so good with a fried egg on it. The big loaf holds well on the counter all week till you can get another one. How could you not like a loaf designed to sit around and get better? I’m amazed that we sell it for less when it’s “day old” at the Deli—we should charge more for it after a day!

If I had only one word to describe Paesano Bread, it’d be “utilitarian.” Yes, that’s not a very sexy depiction, but Paesano’s strongest quality is that it’s a multi-functional, pragmatic workhorse of a bread. The interior is thoroughly permeated with air-pockets. It’s those pockets that make Paesano so versatile. They allow the bread to become infused with the flavors of whatever you serve it with. It’s perfect for sopping up leftover spaghetti sauce, for dunking in soup, or as a companion to cheeses or salami.

I have always been a fan of our Better than San Francisco Sourdough Bread, but for a while I was hesitant to try our Chocolate Sourdough. I had a Goldilocks dilemma—would it be too sweet, would it be too sour, or would it be juuuust right? When I finally tried it, I immediately regretted all of the time I spent worrying about the flavor. Everything I love about our Sourdough Bread—the chewy crust, the present but not overpowering sour tang—marries beautifully with the rich, smooth Belgian chocolate chunks that are present in almost every bite. Some may recommend that you use it to make supremely decadent french toast. Others may suggest that you serve it with our hand-ladled Fresh Cream Cheese. These ideas are excellent, but sometimes the simplest methods are best. If you’re patient enough to wait fifteen minutes to warm it up in the oven, you’ll be rewarded with the sweet aroma of warm chocolate spreading through your kitchen. If you’re unable to wait, then I can tell you that it will be perfect right out of the bag! B-XSB 1 lb handmade loaf $10 SHIPS 2 BUSINESS DAY

jewish rye
Traditional Jewish rye bread is still an endangered American species. Though it’s been more than 20 years since we started baking them, 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. It’s the bread I reach for to make a sandwich or to eat with cool butter and fresh oysters. A perfect pairing with corned beef. B-RYE 1½ lb loaf $9.50
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 it (it’s referred to in Little House on the Prairie as Rye ‘n’ Injun bread). It’s got great crust and a soft, chewy center that has a slight sweetness from dark molasses, making it a hit with kids.

I love this bread: savory, lusty, delicious and dangerously close to addictive. Softly spicy, fire-roasted New Mexico green chiles and Nor'easter Cabot cheddar blended into the Bakehouse’s tangy Farm Bread. Great on its own or as an accompaniment to dinner. It’s especially good if you give it about twenty minutes in a 325 degree oven before you break it open so it’s nice and steamy when you crack the crust.

Coffee Cake of the Month Club
Our coffee cakes 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 coffee cakes, 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 business gift. Each cake serves 5-7.

Cinn-ful 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. With serving instructions.

What was old is new again Chocolate Raisin Babka
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. These days, the nuts have been replaced with fillings like chocolate. 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 modern babka bursts with chocolatey sweetness. If you have memories of dry, lifeless babka from your childhood, forget ‘em. Wrapped in tissue and gift boxed. G-BAB chocolate raisin babka $30 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

violet chEesE LOVE
royalLY smoOth
French violet mustard is the most romantic mustard ever made. I know what that sounds like. It’s kind of like saying football is the most romantic sport ever played. But you’ve got to try this to understand. Violet mustard is barely spicy, muted with a dose of grape must left from the fall harvest, which leaves it a little fruity and deep purple. The mustard isn’t ground, the seeds are left whole, so they pop like caviar in your lover’s mouth. We’ve paired it with luscious, buttery, creamy Manchester from Zingerman’s Creamery, a cheese that oozes just a little when fully ripe. Bring a bottle of wine this Valentine’s Day and you’re in business, guaranteed. G-PPR cheese and mustard $45
Regal Raisin is a triple-crème cheese covered in Marc de Bourgogne soaked raisins. A little explanation on those terms is probably in order. Triple-crème is technical jargon cheesemongers geek out over, it basically means the cheese is really rich and made with lots of cream. Its level of butterfat is only slightly less than butter, if that helps. Marc de Bourgogne is aged brandy from eastern France that gives structure to the coating of sweet raisins. Together they slice through the buttery rich flavor of the cheese to open up complex, compelling flavor. Set this down after dinner, stand back, and watch the compliments fly. C-RGL 7 oz round $24

So many accoutrements are needed: rose in a bud vase, cloth napkins (not paper towels), a sturdy tray, a hot mug of something, the neatly folded newspaper...sometimes the meal is forgotten. Eating in bed may be romantic, but you don’t want it to get messy (so skip the toast). Go with pancakes. Everyone loves ‘em and they don’t leave a layer of crumbs on the duvet. Our pancake mix from Zingerman’s Cornman Farms in Dexter, Michigan is fast and easy to make. Coupled with classic, proper small-batch maple syrup from a family farm in Charlevoix on Lake Michigan, your meal will be enjoyed just as much as the effort.
