A COUPLE OF CAPTIVATING CARAMELS FROM MICHIGAN

Grocer’s Daughter Chocolate Covered Honey Caramels

Along Lake Michigan, about 10 minutes south of the iconic Sleeping Bear Dunes, Grocer’s Daughter has been creating high quality chocolate confections for 20 years. Husband and wife DC and Jody Hayden and their team exclusively use sustainably grown and ethi cally traded chocolate from Ecuador. Among all their delectable sweets, these caramels made with local star thistle honey and enrobed in rich, fruity dark chocolate are my favorite. The assortment features six pieces: two topped with Chardonnay-smoked sea salt, two infused with toasty espresso, and two flavored with spicy crushed and crystallized ginger.

P-GDC-HNC 6 caramels, boxed $32

Gingerbread Caramels

There’s a lot to love about these gingerbread caramels from The Blu Kitchen. Adina St. John uses heavy cream and salted butter from local Michigan farms. She adds molasses and a not-too-spicy blend of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice to create a comforting and recognizable warm gingerbread flavor. And then there’s the texture. Each bite is so soft, so buttery, so lusciously indulgent, that it’s hard not to close your eyes to fully focus on the enjoyment. Each box holds about ten to twelve individually wrapped caramels. Each one is a gift of an opportuniy to live in a sweet, caramel moment.

WEEKENDER GIFT BOXES

The Weekender has been our best-selling gift ever since the Friday it was invented twenty years ago. When you look at the items included, it’s easy to see why: it’s filled with a parade of many of our greatest hits, with bread, baked goods, cheese, salami, and a sweet treat to round it all out. These are foods that are easy for just about everyone to love. But don’t take my word for it. Saveur declared The Weekender “a crowd pleaser.” The team at The New York Times’ Wirecutter called it “a solid collection for snacking.” Our accountant, Joan, tells me the Weekender is her favorite gift to send because “it never fails to please.”

ANATOMY OF A WEEKENDER

Cartooned Gift Box

Our bright, cheerful, colorful gift box is decorated with original hand-drawn art by longtime Zingerman’s artist, Ian Nagy.

Farm Bread

Like French pain au levain, it’s an organic white-wheat flour mix made with a sour starter. Its crust is crisp, its flavor subtle with a slight tang. One of the most popular loaves from Zingerman's Bakehouse.

Zingerman’s

Nor’Easter Cabot Cheddar

We worked with the cheesemakers at Vermont's Cabot Creamery for nearly a year to find a cheddar we wanted to call our own with a creamy texture, hearty and savory flavor with nothing harsh or bitter in the finish.

Black Magic Brownie

From Zingerman's Bakehouse, a wallet-sized, dense, rich, soft, cakey, no nut brownie that tips the scales at nearly a quarter pound. Made with real butter, fresh eggs, tons of chocolate, and no preservatives or unpronounceable additives.

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.

THE WEEKENDER

Hand assembled in our cartooned gift box, The Weekender Gift Box has a loaf of Zingerman’s Farm Bread, a no-nut Black Magic Brownie, a Ginger Jump-Up Molasses Cookie, Holy Cow Beef Sticks, Zingerman’s Peanut Brittle, a half pound of our Nor’easter Cabot Cheddar, and a nosher-sized Sour Cream Coffee Cake.

Holy Cow Beef Sticks

Inessa Lysenko at Red Bear Provisions makes these beef sticks with premium cuts of Angus beef mixed with black pepper and garlic, all smoked over oak. They’re her take on Evreyskaya, an Eastern European salami, here made in a slim format for maximum snackability.

Zingerman’s Peanut Brittle

Zingerman’s candy cooks start with jumbo Runner peanuts to make our peanut brittle with in small batches by hand with a watchful eye. The result is butterscotch-brown flavor, sharp, crackly texture that never sticks in your teeth, and a finishing savor of roasted peanuts.

Sour Cream Coffee Cake

This is a Zingerman’s classic: rich, moist Sour Cream Coffee Cake made with organic flour, loaded with Indonesian cinnamon and toasted walnuts. Sold on its own, it’s perennially one of our our most popular gifts (find it on page 24).

Ginger Jump-Up Molasses Cookie

Soft, chewy, rich cookie as big as your palm, made by the pastry mavens at Zingerman's Bakehouse with muscovado sugar and juicy chunks of crystallized ginger.

19TH CENTURY TURKEYS RETURN TO THE THANKSGIVING TABLE

Heritage Turkeys from Judd Culver

There are now a few farmers in American offering heritage breed turkeys which came back from near extinction just over a decade ago. You might even have some available where you live, which would be excellent news and you should order early from your local farmer to try one this year. Heritage birds are in sharp contrast to the modern Thanksgiving turkey, which is a bit of a monster.

The modern broad breasted white, as it’s known, was bred to produce a lot of white breast meat as quickly as possible. As everything else got pushed aside in favor of that goal, out went its disease fighting genetics, out went its ability to survive on its own, out went its flavor. Commercial turkeys taste like salt and water, with very little turkey flavor to mention.

Not so with these heritage KellyBronze turkeys. They are full-flavored birds, rich with flavor and never mooshy in texture. They spend their lives out in pasture on Judd Culver's farm in Crozet, Virginia, in a valley at the foot of the Blue Ridge mountains. They're protected from predators by a pair of guard llamas (really!).

When it comes time to process the birds, Judd and his team use a style called “New York dressed.” It’s the old way turkeys were processed on farms. They are cleaned without water, hung to age like steak. These might seem like small differences, but the flavor will blow you away. This turkey is so tender, so flavorful, it’s so different from what we’re used to it shouldn’t even be called by the same name.

None of these flavors are extreme. This is the kind of turkey that everyone at the table is going to enjoy. For many, it’ll be the first time they’ve tasted the real thing, and they’ll be fighting for seconds.

THANKSGIVING DESSERTS

Toasted Pecan Pie

The baker’s favorite. Our pie bakers stuff in so many toasted pecans in this pie that there’s barely enough room to fit them in, let alone any of the caramelly brown-sugar custard. Warm, balanced flavor that’s never too sweet.

Bonajuto Chocolates from Sicily

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.

Ricciarelli Italian Almond Cookies

If you’re looking for baked good inspiration, you can’t go wrong focusing on Italy. Italian cookies master the interplay between great texture and great flavor, from crunchy amaretti (find them on the facing page) to buttery pignoli (find them at zingermans.com). Marabissi has been making traditional Italian cookies for over 70 years in Tuscany, including these classic holiday cookies from Siena. Ricciarelli (pronounced ree-chuh-reh-lee) are soft and chewy oval-shaped cookies bursting with almond flavor, and their cracked surface is dusted with powdered sugar. They practically melt in your mouth. The nutty sweetness makes them a perfect pairing for coffee or dessert wine, or just enjoy them as a sweet end to a chilly evening.

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.

CHRISTMAS COOKIES

Douglas Fir Shortbread Cookies

Peppermint and gingerbread are classic holiday treats, but in December they tend to be as prevalent as that Mariah Carey song. For those looking for something a little off the beaten flavor path, these woodsy, earthy Douglas fir shortbread cookies are sure to keep you on the nice list. Each bite is buttery and luscious. The savory, rosemary-like fragrance is balanced in flavor by lemony sweetness and a bit of a bright, spicy edge from fruity pink peppercorns. Twelve triangles are packed in a gift-worthy tin and are the perfect size to nibble on with coffee or tea.

Broyé du Poitou Almond Shortbread

This giant, dinner plate-sized, buttery shortbread cookie is traditionally served in western France around the city of Poitiers during celebrations and holidays. Over the centuries, the bakers of Poitiers have mastered shortbread that crumbles and crunches while still having a rich, sweet flavor, accented with a sprinkling of toasty slivered almonds on top. The sturdy texture is key to the theater of serving this sweet. Set it in the middle of the table and give it a punch or hit it with a hammer. Seriously. The perfectly positioned strike breaks the dessert into a variety of pieces, allowing revelers and snackers alike to pick the size that suits them. Serve with coffee and tea when there’s no party to plan.

Zingerman’s Corned Beef & Pastrami

The meats we built our deli on. Every week we sell thousands of pounds of our corned beef and pastrami, much of it piled high on Zingerman’s Jewish Rye bread (find it on page 27) and nearly as much sliced up for our customers to take home and have for dinner. Both have been made for us by Sy Ginsburg and his team since we opened our doors in 1982. The first cut corned beef is our most popular deli meat by a country mile. Pastrami, the spicy cousin to corned beef made from the fatty navel cut of beef and cured with a load of spices like black pepper and clove, is a cult favorite.

We’ve been making them at Zingerman’s Deli since we opened our doors in 1982. The inside is made of mashed Yukon Gold potatoes, onions, and herbs. The outside is a tender, flaky, handmade crust crafted from fresh farm cheese from Zingerman’s Creamery. Ready to eat, cold or hot. We like ours served hot with a side of good mustard.

Marzipan Stars of David

Marzipan is a chewy confection of almond, sugar and egg whites with a sweet, floral almond flavor. These confections are made right here in Ann Arbor, where the marzipan masters at Marzipops shape the candy into Stars of David and hand paint them with blue and silver stripes. A pretty, tasty gift for Hanukkah.

Chocolate Gelt

The best tasting—and most authentic looking—gelt I’ve ever encountered. Gold and silver dusted disks (no foil wrapping here) from Veruca Chocolates in Chicago are formed to look like Judean coins circa 40 BCE. The real treasure is their flavor: choose from either sweet milk chocolate, or rich dark chocolate with crunchy crystals of sea salt. A great gift for every day of Chanukah. Kosher. Quantities limited.

Hebel Halva

Halva is a confection made of ground sesame seeds—AKA tahini—plus sugar and extra flavorings. The result is this ethereal, airy, nutty, candyfloss-like paste that’s spread able or spoonable or sliceable and just delicious. We offer two flavors from Hebel & Co. in Los Angeles. The first is chock full of toasty pistachios and nigella seeds, a complex, earthy spice. The second is double chocolate. Both are Kosher.

Olive Oil Cake

Made with freshly milled whole grain durum semolina flour, toasted almonds, freshly grated lemon zest—nearly a whole lemon’s worth per cake—and lots of excellent extra virgin olive oil, making it a great choice for Hanukkah. It’s moist and tender, with a bright flavor that lingers long after the slice is sent south. We hand pack each cake in our cartoon box or handsome wooden crate. Serves 5-7.

The most popular is half classic toasted walnut with currants, and half apricot. For chocoholics, there’s half chocolate, half raspberry. Or for the fruit fiends, try half apricot, half raspberry.

Angelina Drinking Chocolate from Paris

Angelina, the jewelbox tea salon on the Rue de Rivoli, serves the best hot chocolate in Paris. It’s incredibly rich, with deep, intense chocolate flavor. If a quick jaunt to Paris for a cup of hot chocolate isn’t an option, the next best option is to make it at home for yourself. Choose from two versions: classic cocoa mix to make with your own milk, or a bottle of molten chocolate ready to heat and sip.

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.

Zingerman’s Hot Cocoa from Ann Arbo

To level up to hot cocoa 2.0, pair the hot cocoa with a bag of 15 fluffy, jumbo handmade vanilla marshmallows from Zingerman’s Candy Manufactory.

Spanish Chocolate Dipped Figs

These once unheard of figs have become one of our most popular gifts. Tender, sweeter than usual Calabacita figs are dried, then given a double dose of chocolate: first they’re stuffed with chocolate ganache, then they’re enrobed in a layer of chocolate. Each piece is individually wrapped. They’re as good as they sound, perhaps better, and beat your mall-bought chocolates any day. The small sizes make great stocking stuffers, the bigger boxes perform amazing feats as host gifts. The gift tin makes a gorgeous keepsake. Choose from a few different flavors.

Dark Chocolate

First is the classic: dark chocolate covered figs, filled with a soft chocolate truffle cream with a hint of liqueur.

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. 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.

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.

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.

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.

We focus each shipment on a specific country. At the end the recipient will have a cheese education that's hard to find these days, including a deep understanding of cheesemaking styles and how to serve and pair the cheese.

Coffee Cakes

Coffee cakes have been our best-selling gift since we started mailing food in the early 1990s.

I guarantee you really can taste the difference.

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.

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.

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.

Farm

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.

parmesan pepper

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.

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.

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 supermar kets. 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.

Cabot Clothbound Cheddar from Vermont

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.

Giorgio Cravero’s Parmigiano Reggiano from Italy

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.

Pleasant Ridge Reserve Cheese from Wisconsin

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

REGAL ROYAL BLUE

Blaublüter Cheese from Germany

Discovering a “new” European cheese is one of a food finder’s great joys in life—akin to finding a chest of Spanish silver with a metal detector—so you’ll pardon me if I let out a little “eureka!” here and there. This blue beauty comes from the BIO Schaukäserei Wiggensbach Dairy in the German city of Kempten at the foot of the Alps. The squarish wheels are relatively small so they don’t age for long (only a couple months), but the cheese inside tastes like something far more experienced. The first taste is sharp, but not bitey, and moves towards a sweetness that sort of evaporates on the tongue. Smooth and creamy, it’s a luscious blue that rivals any of Europe’s more established names. Eureka!

TRUFFLE CHEESE DONE RIGHT

Sierra la Solana Truffle Sheep's Milk Cheese from Spain

Few foods are more famed in the culinary world than truffles and as a result, it gets copied and adulterated in all sorts of ways. Some companies use chemical flavorings or questionable oils to mimic the flavor of truffles and capitalize on their popularity, but they taste terrible. As a result, I—a professional food selector—have become wary of truffle flavored products. So it means something more when I say: this is good truffle cheese. Made by Maria José in La Mancha, this raw sheep's milk cheese was already smooth and nutty and sweet, but now it has a deep earthy character thanks to the addition of real shaved truffles (not oil). Rare, limited, wonderful. Grab some before it’s gone.

MOUNTAIN MAJESTY

Comté from Fort St. Antoine from France

France’s most renowned mountain cheese, selected for us by Essex Street Cheese Co. from the caves of legendary affineur Maison Marcel Petite. Our classic take on Comté is aged for about a year. It has a fudgy texture and a well balanced, never bitey flavor, with a buttery, hazelnut taste that grows on the tongue and slowly expands to fill your entire mouth. Or new this year, just for the holidays, the extra aged version spends about 18 months maturing. The extra time intensifies the flavor, giving it a slightly firmer texture and a flavor that pushes toward more powerful, savory notes.

GOAT GOUDA MILKSHAKE

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.

Andy Hatch’s Rush Creek Reserve from Wisconsin

In the fall, the team at Uplands Cheese in Dodgeville, Wisconsin use the rich, buttery milk from their own small herd of pastured Holsteins, Brown Swiss and Jersey cows to make Rush Creek Reserve. Each palm-sized wheel is wrapped in spruce bark, which helps the soft cheese hold its shape and gives it a woody, roasty, toasty note. The interior is luscious, what cheesemaker Andy refers to as “savory custard” for its consistency and punch of flavor. Let the cheese come up to room temperature and then carefully cut off the top ‘lid’ of the cheese. The creamy, spoonable cheese inside awaits and can be served with accoutrements from crusty bread to roasted vegetables. Great with a crisp glass of white wine served before the holiday feast.

3 Tips for Building a Showstopping Cheese Board

1. Make it colorful. Position similar looking items (like green olives and green grapes) in opposite regions to draw the eye around.

2. Play with the pairings. The collections on these pages offer classics like crackers, salami, and dried fruit, but the sky's the limit. Feel free to go wild with whatever you’ve got in the pantry or fridge: fresh veggies, mustards, honeys. Pretty much anything you like is fair game!

3. Take the first bite. When the board looks too perfect, folks may be shy about getting started. Pre-cut a few slices of each cheese to encourage people to dive in, and include a knife for each cheese to make it easy for folks to serve themselves.

The New Standard For Holiday Hams

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 Indianap olis. 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.

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.

OTHER FRUITY LUSCIOUSNESS

Roasted Figs from Italy

Franco Rao’s figs are an eagerly awaited seasonal crop. Prized dotato figs are picked by hand when they are fully ripe, beginning to dry and concentrate. They’re caramelized over twenty-four hours in a low-temperature oven, a step almost no one takes because it adds extra time and expense. The impact on the flavor, however, is immense. These figs have a roasted, caramel-sweet flavor that’s irresistible. Hand packed in a ball the size of an apple, wrapped in fig leaves and twine. It’s a traditional way to store them in southern Italy, rustic and attractive. They are great with yogurt, with cheese, with ice cream. As a gift for someone with an eye for rustic foods with real flavor, you won’t find much better. Very limited quantities.

Dried fruits and nuts are a classic Portuguese combination, an end-of-dinner staple you’ll enjoy in homes from the Algarve to the Douro.

Her farm brushes the banks of the Tejo river in central Portugal. There they grow walnuts and the figs — the prized honey drop “pingo de mel” variety, harvested late in summer when it’s so absurdly decadent a dew drop of honey sweet nectar drips from its eye. The figs are dried, paired with their walnut mate, the rest is history. Keep a pack stashed for an after dinner treat with friends who you’ve missed so much you don’t want the night to end.

Calabria, in Southern Italy, is to citrus like Maine is to blueberries. The fruit they have is found elsewhere, but it’s rarely better. Oranges from here are so delicious you want to eat the peel.

From Dolci Pensieri di Calabria, a family firm that have been at this for over five decades.

Chocolate Orange Bark from Colorado

Bibamba is a bean-to-bar operation like none I’ve ever seen before. The big idea about bean-to-bar chocolate makers is that they travel the world to source the exact cacao beans they want. Patrick and Mara Tcheunou take their work a step further by owning every aspect of the process: from their own cacao farm in Cameroon to their chocolate production in Colorado. That’s taking bean-to-bar production to a whole other level, and the flavor shows in this dark chocolate bark. Spiked with orange and spices like cinnamon and star anise, this bark sparks more than just your culinary imagination, it delivers a complex and bright flavor you’ll wanna keep nibbling and nibbling till the bag’s all gone.

TERRIFICALLY TROPICAL

Wild Chocolate Covered Cupuaçu Fruit from Brazil

Luisa Abram partners with local Brazilian communities to find and harvest wild cacao that grows along the lush banks of the rivers in the Amazon rainforest. Luisa uses this one of a kind cacao to create exceptionally flavored confections, including this fruity 70% dark chocolate that enrobes pieces of cupuaçu (coo-pu-wah-soo), a fruit that’s a relative of cacao—and the national fruit of Brazil. Each chocolate covered cupuaçu is about the size of a chocolate covered raisin. Pop one in your mouth and it bursts with a tart, tropical flavor like pineapple and a chewy, gummy texture. They’re perfect for the foodie who loves rare food finds or for any fan of high quality chocolate.

Peppy Peppermint Bark

Peppermint bark has been a Christmas staple for my family as much as Christmas cookies have, and I know I’m not alone. While I’ll never forget Christmas as a kid, this peppermint bark from Chocolate Signatures in Toronto has overwritten all those childhood bark memories. Dark Belgian chocolate is topped with white chocolate (that actually tastes good), coated in a layer of crushed real peppermint candies. Comes in a hot red tin.

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. First up are the creams: a chocolate shell covers an oozy, woozy peppermint cream. Second are the crisps: thin chocolate wafers infused with mint that snap between your teeth.

Peppermint Hot Chocolate

Merry Mint Chocolate Layer Cake

t sounds simple enough: three layers of rich chocolate cake, filled with a chocolate mint buttercream and then iced with vanilla buttercream. The sides are cloaked in brownie crumbles, and it’s topped with a fondant candy cane. The traditional Swiss buttercream frostings are showstoppers, made by whipping fresh eggs and sugar into a meringue, then mixing in real Wisconsin butter and Madagascar vanilla. Our cakes are also marked by what they don’t contain: no mixes, no artificial anything. Ships frozen.

1. THE HOLIDAY FAVORITE

3. THE SUPERB SIPPER

PANETTONE

You know it’s Christmas in Italy when the panettoni start appearing in shop windows. They’re the fluffy, tall cakes that are seasoned with candied citrus and packaged as beautifully as a present for the Contessa. We’ve had great traditional Italian panettone every Christmas since our doors opened in 1982. And while they're traditional as a winter holiday treat, they keep a long time: each cake will still be good next spring when the first flowers start to bloom.

Traditional Panettone

If Italy had to elect a national Christmas dessert, this would be the top candi date. 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.

While England’s national holiday cake has become a cheap industrial laughing stock, these are another species altogether. Crafted by Robert Lambert 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.

White Rare Citrus Fruit Cake

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.

Dark 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.

Vintage Fruit Cakes

If you already consider fruit cake a joke the idea of a vintage fruit cake must seem like a real marketer’s whopper. Selling last year’s fruit cakes? Yes, that’s exactly what we’re doing. Over the last year the flavor has developed, expanded and gotten more complex. Like a wine that was fun while young, more serious now that its aged, these fruit cakes have become a real aficionado's treat. Gift boxed.

British 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.

Panforte Margherita is one of the most classic combinations of flavors: candied citrus peel, almonds, and spices including cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove combine to create a cake that’s rich, spicy, intense. The cake isn’t leavened, so it has a texture similar to a fig cake or a dense brownie.

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. It’s not really fudge. It’s better.

Italian Sea Salt Chocolate and Hazelnut Cremini Truffles

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.

TREATS

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.

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.
