Almond Biscotti

I've long loved biscotti with my morning coffee but during the quarantine period it had been all but impossible to obtain from the places I used to buy it, so I found out how to make it myself. This is adapted from a recipe originally found at shelovesbiscotti.com, but without the granulated sugar (all brown sugar only) or lemon zest, whose point I could never get. It is less sweet and there's a hint of a salty flavour that I enjoy with my coffee. 🇮🇹

Tony Fortuna, owner of Lenox restaurant in NYC, shared the recipe for his fantastic almond biscotti with Dorie Greenspan, who shared it with the rest of us. They are perfect - crunchy but not rock solid, dippable, dunkable and munchable, good with coffee, vin santo, ice cream, mousses and puddings too. Ricardo -

Biscotti Biscotti
I arranged something delicious that I learned overseas in the simplest way possible. It is perfect for beginners.In addition to the 3 ingredients for the plain biscotti, you can try adding other ingredients such as cocoa, green tea, brown sugar, rum, chocolate chips, paprika, adzuki beans, etc. By the way, biscotti apparently means "baked twice" in Italian. I like the texture of both baking it once and twice. For about 12 pieces. Recipe by mini cookpad.japan
