send Dad his own deli counter Zingerman’s Big Box of Meat When I’m away from Ann Arbor for more than a few days I start to miss Zingerman’s food. Coffee and bread first, then more subtle longings surface. Like cured and cooked meats. This is a collection of my favorites from our deli case. It’s good grub for weekends, when cooking takes time away from more important matters, like the couch. Just set out some cheese, vegetables, bread and some sliced meats for a satisfying feast. Our Zingerman's shopping bag includes a pound each of Pastrami, our Classic Black Angus Lean Corned Beef, Broadbent Sausage, Usinger’s Liverwurst, Nueske's Applewood Smoked Bacon, plus a Crespone Salami and La Quercia's Iowa White Cured Pork Spread. Over six pounds of cured cow and hog, rounded out with a loaf of Bacon Peppered Farm Bread. Requires a strong will not to overdo it. In case of excess, we’ll throw in some Alka Seltzer®.

Everything freezes splendidly.

Apple Bacon Coffeecake The bacon invasion continues: it has now infiltrated the most popular pastry we make, our legendary Sourcream Coffeecake.

Chunks of apples and pieces of Nueske’s amazing Applewood Smoked Bacon are mixed with top-notch ingredients like Indonesian cinnamon and real sour cream from Guernsey farm in Northville, Michigan. Like the rest of our coffeecakes, it’s baked in a traditional bundt pan. Unlike our other cakes, it’s savory and sweet at the same time and a true testament to the limitless possibilities of bacon.

Ibérico Bellota Cured Pork Loin

Shocking. There’s no other way to describe the experience of first tasting cured bellota pork—in this case, the loin made from heirloom Ibérico pigs who’ve feasted on bellotas (acorns) the last months of their lives. Even in Spain, where bellota pork is more common, eating it is a very special event. The acorn diet has a magical effect on the meat’s texture. It appears to lower the fat’s melting point to body temperature. Eating a thin slice is like placing a piece of chocolate on your tongue. It immediately puddles, the flavor releasing itself in the process. A cut of loin is about a foot long, the thickness of a baseball bat handle. It’s riddled with fat: tiny, creamy white flecks among the rosy flesh. Outside it’s coated in paprika which, while not spicy, gives each bite a tiny peppery tingle. Unbelievable stuff.

PaSsover's treat, baked alL year Coconut Macaroons

Years ago, when my friend Josh worked at Zingerman's he taught me about "traditional" Passover macaroons. "Real Passover macaroons are supposed to be terrible. They should come in a can and taste like dirt and glue.” In spite of my interest in traditional food, I guess I fail here. Our coconut macaroons are slightly crunchy on the outside, rich and creamy on the inside. Simply put, they're the best-tasting coconut macaroons I’ve ever had anywhere, with a buttery, coconut aroma that stays with you like a strong memory. We package a dozen (six chocolate and six vanilla) into a Zingerman’s gift box. Not Kosher.

Mandelbread

Forget the biscotti you’ve nibbled in cafés. They don’t belong in the same category as these traditional Jewish treats. Toasted almonds get the spotlight here. There’s a ton of them—almost more than can fit. The rest of the mandelbread is held together with fresh eggs and sweet butter, and the flavor is amplified with fresh lemon and orange zest along with a dose of real vanilla. Many folks around Zingerman's think mandelbread is closer to shortbread than biscotti, and I agree. Though it’s crunchy, crispy and very dunkable in coffee or milk, it's great enjoyed by itself when a sweet reward is earned. Stash a bag where you need a quick fix: desk drawer, glove box, gym bag…

cockles, spanish style

Berberechos

Galician Cockles—berberechos, in Spanish—are tiny, coveted clams, hand shucked and tinned in simple brine. The amount of handwork to get this done is extraordinary, and the care is evident as soon as you open the tin. The placement of each clam, the wonderful sweet sea aroma and the flavor and texture—ocean sweet, meaty, tender and succulent—are clearly a labor of love. This is the kind of tinned seafood that you find almost nowhere besides Spain where it's considered a delicacy. It may take some time to wrap your head around that idea, or wrap your wallet around the price, but if you know someone who loves special fishes, this is definitely worth splurging on. Just open the tin and serve, like it's done at the best Barcelona tapas bars. No shells.

roman fish sauce

Garum Colatura

This is one of those foods for folks looking for something both old and new–and flavorful. It’s an ancient convenience food that gets deep flavor without much work. I’d never even heard of garum colatura until I visited the Italian coast south of Naples. There I discovered it’s the liquid that’s drained off the barrels of traditionally cured anchovies. Made much the same way it was 2,000 years ago, it’s used as a quick way to give great anchovy flavor to a dish without having to fillet, soak and chop the fish.

The best meal of my Neapolitan trip was a bowl of spaghetti cooked al dente that had been tossed quickly with garum, some very good olive oil, chopped garlic and a touch of dried red pepper. One bottle is enough to season over a dozen dishes of pasta or vegetables.

P-COL 100 ml bottle $16 SHIPS FOR FLAT RATE

vietnamese fish sauce Red Boat Fish Sauce

Where many fish sauces are chock full of nasty preservatives and whatnots, this has only two ingredients: anchovies and salt. It's similar to garum colatura, the anchovy sauce from Naples above, though the aging and fermentation are different. If you cook Southeast Asian food you'll find lots of uses. In Western dishes you can add a dash while sautéing onions. Add it to the base of any sauce or soup.

The best pasta sauces I know of Il Mongetto Italian Tomato Sauces

For years Il Mongetto has been the top contender for my favorite bottled pasta sauces. They have a clean, fresh flavor that I love. Conjured up by the serenely insightful Santopietro family in the shadows of the Italian Alps, these sauces are filled with tomatoes, shallots, celery, carrots and olive oil from Umbrian maker Alfredo Mancianti. They feature complex, compelling flavors that other sauces only aspire to. Pasta with Il Mongetto sauce is the best fast food I know.

JewEl in THE crown Bonito Tuna from Spain Tuna is one of the most popular foods we sell.

It may seem surprising because here in the U.S., tinned tuna is a low-end commodity usually sold in supermarkets. In Spain it’s at the complete opposite of the culinary spectrum. Tuna in tins, especially from the fourth-generation family firm Ortiz, is one of the jewels in Spain's culinary crown.

Ortiz's fish are all line caught—not netted—hand filleted at sea and quickly tinned in good olive oil. The olive oil is key. It adds flavor and makes the texture silky over time, unlike water, which tends to leach flavors from the fish.

Tour d'Oil Gift Box

Fifteen years ago good olive oil was novel to most Americans, but now it’s hard to find a serious home cook anywhere in America who doesn’t have a couple bottles of extra-virgin olive oil on their counter. Like wine, each oil has its own flavor and goes well with different foods. This gift lets the recipient experiment at will.

Our printed gift box comes with a half liter of feathery light Roi from the Italian Riviera; a half liter of assertive but smooth Peranzana, made just for Zingerman's

by Marina Colonna in the Molise and a 1 oz sampler of citrus-pressed olive oils.

Also includes a loaf of Paesano Bread for ripping and dipping. Makes a great gift for a cook of any skill.

the lemon oil of angels 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 olivey with a lemoniness that tickles your nose like the bubbles of a fine champagne. This is not lemon flavored oil but the traditional pressing of olives and lemons together—oil of the fruit married to oil of the olive in an ethereal combination. You can do most anything with Agrumato lemon you’d do with other oils and then some. It’s fantastic brushed on top of almost any just-broiled fresh fish.

The latest bottling, from the summer 2011 harvest is a big, rambunctious olive oil. It has a wonderful aroma that reminds me of almonds and has a really beautiful bitterness in the finish that may catch you with a punch of late breaking pepperiness. To me it has the same sort of appeal of the bitter end of dark chocolate. It’s lively, engaging, intriguing. Not strong but vital, alive. My mouth tingles long after I’ve finished eating it.

Zingerman’s Peranzana from Molise We looked long and hard for an oil to call our own, and we finally chose this one. Zingerman’s Olive Oil is made by Marina Colonna on her 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, the oil is hugely flavorful. The latest vintage has a pleasing green apple-y aroma, which is common for the Peranzana olive. Its lively olive flavor hints of freshly cut grass and leaf, with a whisper of almond. It finishes with that great green olive bitterness. It’s excellent on just about everything–salads, soups, seafood, steaks, beans or, of course, bruschetta.

light and elegant leader Roi from Liguria

On the Italian Riviera, delicacy, not strength, brings an oil acclaim and honor. Roi is one of the best Ligurian oils I’ve tried. It’s been made in the mountain town of Badalucco by the Boeri family since 1900. Mellow yet rich in its unfiltered state, it’s delicately delicious, feathery light and perfect for pesto making. Its subtle, lingering flavors leave you smiling long after you’ve tasted it. I use it for dressing fresh fish or a salad.

Our most popular balsamics Vecchia Dispensa's 10 Year Aged Balsamic

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. All are highly recommended, the ten year aged is the most popular.

Ripe, sweet, succulent black beauties from the sun-kissed fields of southern Italy, marinated in extravirgin olive oil with tiny dried red peppers and a snippet of orange rind.

Elusive Basque vinegar Orduna Txakoli Vinegar

Made from Txakoli wine, hard to find outside the Basque country and rarely made into vinegar. Enter Emilio Lunegas, a devoted wine maker in the region. He developed a vinegar from the traditional wine and broadened the recognition of the Basque region.

Working with top-quality Txakoli, Sr. Luengas makes only about 1,200 liters of the vinegar annually. The flavor is light, lingering. It’s not sweet. With an airiness that makes it refreshing, it’s exceptional on simple salads and with seafood—deglaze a pan after you sauté fish in it.

the FOie GraS of fInishINg Oils Roasted Butternut Squash Oil

This silky oil is made with butternut squash seeds that are roasted and pressed for their oil. The first smell is a blast of fall, redolent of toasted pumpkin seeds and roasted nuts. At nearly ten squashes’ worth per bottle, its flavor is intense, which is why I think of it as the foie gras of oils. Just a drizzle over a salad—nothing else needed—transports the dish. It's also outstanding poured on soup, especially if it's made from squash. Try some with avocado, blue cheese and toasted walnuts too. From New York.

What white “balsamic” should be Agrodolce White Balsamic Vinegar Agrodolce is super smooth, light on the tongue, subtle and very, very long in the finish. You can use it in place of balsamic since it’s similarly soft and sweet. Wherever it’s employed, your cooking will be enhanced by one of the most elegant vinegars I’ve tried in a really long time.

It’s crafted by Sante Bertoni on his family estate outside of Modena, Italy. Described as a bit of a mad scientist, Sr. Bertoni is giving the vinegar extra maturing just for us, making its flavor more complex before it hits your kitchen.

roadhouse bread

The house bread at our restaurant, Zingerman’s Roadhouse and a local favorite. It’s based on an early New England recipe, made by combining rye flour and cornmeal with wheat. Anyone from an 18th century New Englander to Laura Ingalls Wilder would recognize and enjoy it today (it’s referred to in Little House on the Prairie as Rye ‘n’ Injun bread). The same goes for almost anyone I hand a slice to today. It’s got great crust and a soft, chewy center that has a slight sweetness from dark molasses, making it a hit with kids.

Excellent with cream cheese and smoked salmon.

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 1.5 pound loaf is pictured, but the 3 pound round is my favorite. Cut into quarters and freeze what you don’t eat.

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

A few minutes in the oven, the chocolate chunks begin melting, the aroma of cocoa fills the air. Spread it with just a hint of sweet butter or set a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of a warm slice. You'll be sitting in front of the most decadent dessert you've had in years.

Your entire kitchen is likely to be filled with sensuous smells—warm chocolate, good bread. This is one loaf that's very hard to keep around the house.

peppered bacon farm bread

parmesan pepper heretic's bread

We used to bake this on special occasions and we’d get so many orders we'd run out of bacon. It’s Farm Bread dough with Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon and Tellicherry black pepper.

Every bite has a bit of sourdough tang and a lot of the sweet, smoky meatiness of bacon, plus a little spice. I’m sure it makes great sandwiches, but I’ve never had a loaf around long enough to try.

B-BAC ¾ lb handmade loaf $13

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 quarter pound of parmesan in every loaf, along with a load of cracked black Tellicherry 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 toasted.

Softly spicy, fire-roasted New Mexico green chiles and raw milk Vermont 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.

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

the king of parmesan Parmigiano-Reggiano

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

CHEese candy L'amuse Gouda

america's standard Pleasant Ridge Reserve

Mike Gingrich and his crew make this farmhouse cheese using the milk of their mixed herd of 140 cows only when they're out to pasture. Production is small, especially since their herd gives a very low yield. They make up for volume with flavor. It's the kind of cheese that ages well; we select wheels aged a few months more than what you'll find on almost any other cheese counter in America. It’s special reserve stock, the flavor more intense, and to me it catapults Pleasant Ridge to the ranks of the top cheeses in the world. Balanced caramel flavor, long lasting finish.

While Gouda is made everywhere in Holland, there are major differences between goudas from different regions. These wheels are made in the north from the milk of Holstein cows, two factors that give the cheese a distinctive creaminess speckled with big, crunchy flavor crystals. Selected for us by Betty Koster of L'amuse, Amsterdam's top cheese shop, aged for over two years, the flavor is correspondingly intense. It fills your mouth with butterscotch and caramel, almost like a dessert. In fact, a single nib, taken with espresso after dinner, is a revelation.

Rangpur Lime Syrup

This could be the Holy Grail of secret ingredients. Rangpur limes look more like mandarins than the little green citrus fruit we know, but their flavor is like a smoky lime.

This syrup pours easily—like honey—and doesn’t leave sugar crystals as it dissolves in iced or hot drinks, making it excellent for cocktails. It’s become a stealth ingredient in my mojitos and margaritas.

Raye’s Mustard A smooth yellow mustard with crystal clear flavors, highly recommended. I think the most interesting part about J. W. Raye’s fourthgeneration operation in Eastport, Maine, is that the seeds are ground in the 105-year-old stone mill. It has a series of eight oneton quartz grindstones that, though I haven’t seen them in person, must be a dramatic sight. As the mustard mash moves from stone to stone, it gets creamier without any addition of heat, which would drive off the aromatics and lessen the flavor. It’s put into large barrels and aged about four weeks to balance and deepen its flavor. Then it’s off to us.

The peanut butter that's become a legend. We found this one almost right next door in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Like most of the simple great foods in our catalog like polenta or olive oil, it’s the result of a lot of care and very little processing. Jeff Koeze sources incredible Virginia peanuts, brings them up north in 2,000 pound sacks, then blanches them to remove the skins and keep them from going rancid (a common flaw in a lot of natural peanut butters). He roasts them in vintage coffee roasters, grinds them smooth, then adds a bit of salt. The result is not an air whipped, sugar filled concoction but a natural, intense, velvety, mouthwatering sensation. Get a couple jars, quick.

a stand for american ham American country ham, cured like Italian prosciutto and Spanish jamón, has long been the underdog of the pork world. While it's had reverence in Europe—American ham was served at the court of Louis X1V—here it's been relegated to lining biscuits. I urge you to taste what you've been missing.

Flavorful and delicious, it deserves a spot on appetizer trays, alongside cheeses— anywhere you've been serving prosciutto you should try this. Here we offer whole hams, with the bone in, for you to slice from. We include instructions on how to slice and take care of them. They'll last months, you can serve guests regularly all spring and summer. They'll be as amazed as you are.

TRADITIONAL FOoD, traditional tOol Mortar and Pestle

From Patience Grey to Richard Olney, many of my favorite cookbook authors recommend a stone mortar with a wood pestle in as big a size as you can afford. It took years to find one that fit the bill, but, after using it for three or four years now, I can honestly report that the pros were right. It’s a great tool for the kitchen, especially if you like to cook traditional recipes. The mortar measures eight inches across and four inches deep. Comes with recipes for traditional pesto and anchovy dressing.

These are one of those simple, unassuming savory snacks that should come with a warning on the label: Caution! May lead to addiction! Made in Puglia, the ankle of Italy, with two things Puglia has in abundance: olive oil and wheat. Tarallini are little rings of oil-rich dough, boiled then baked till crispy. They crunch when you bite then practically melt in your mouth as you chew. It’s way too easy to knock back a whole bag in one sitting. Be careful.

Summer Fling Coffeecake

I don’t know about you, but just thinking about lime and coconuts feels like the right thing to do about this time of year. We started making this summer coffeecake four years ago and it was a surprise hit. It’s the taste that hooks you. Lighter on the tongue than our other coffeecakes, it’s fresh, zesty and maybe even a bit tart—in a good way. It makes me think of white shoes, chiffon dresses and mint juleps. Loaded with slow-toasted coconut and lime. Of course it has our usual assortment of everyday heroes like fresh eggs, vanilla and real butter. Very moist, very easy to polish off a whole one with friends and gin and tonics on a lazy afternoon on the patio.

Sourcream Coffeecake

A legend. This is a Zingerman’s classic and perennially one of our most popular gifts. Rich, moist Sourcream Coffeecake, loaded with Indonesian cinnamon and toasted walnuts, baked in a traditional bundt pan. All in all, it’s very impressive, extremely delicious. And it lasts. A week or two after delivery, wrapped, it’ll still be soft and scrumptious, melting in the mouths of a family or hungry office staff. In theory at least. Personally, I’ve never seen one last more than an hour or two.

nOt tOo swEet Hot Cocoa Coffeecake

It’s easy to imagine chocolate coffeecake is going to taste too sweet. That’s one of the reasons we went with cocoa instead. A very special cocoa, made for us by Scharffen Berger. It is more complex and elegantly excellent than any cocoa I’ve ever tried. It’s always a welcome table guest: with morning coffee, with afternoon tea or with a scoop of ice cream to top off a long day before you head off to bed.

Beyond the malL Cinnful Cinnamon Roll Gift Box Almost anyone can make a cinnamon roll smell good while it’s baking, even among the cell phone kiosks at the mall. Unfortunately, most have little more than aroma to offer. You won’t taste much beyond sugar and cinnamon.

The real challenge is to fashion a cinnamon roll that tastes as good as it smells. These fit the bill. Warm them up, break one open and put your nose up close. You’ll smell sweet butter, Indonesian cinnamon, real vanilla. But the real treat is next. Take one bite. That’s all you’ll need to forget the litany of cinnamon roll disappointments life has dealt you. Our handsome round wooden gift box includes ten cinnamon rolls baked in a reusable metal tin with serving instructions.
