Italians like these cookies dry and hard, while American versions are buttery and more tender. We wanted something in between-that is, crisp but not tooth shattering.

And when One no longer has a subscription (except to CL physical magazine) it helps to watch these vids w/a pen & paper to write it all down. Pistachio Biscotti will be made later today! Happy Valentines Day!!!!

They're well worth it. Give them as gifts, wrapped in colored cellophane. Great treat for children too.

@thedivide3688 but it's difficult to stop at 1 or 2. 😂 I don't bake as much as I use to but when I did I always put a few well wrapped into my freezer. Otherwise in a well sealed container for my tea breaks. ❤❤

My recipe notes: Pistachio-Spice Biscotti INGREDIENTS • 1 ¼ c pistachios • 1 ¾ c AP flour • 2 t baking powder • ¼ t salt • 1 t ground cardamom • ½ t ground cloves • ½ t black pepper • ¼ t cinnamon • ¼ t ginger • 2 lg eggs • 1 c sugar • 4 T melted butter • 1 t vanilla • 1 t water PREPARATION STEPS 1. Lightly toast pistachios in a 350° oven for 8 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°F. 2. Divide, reserving ¼ c pistachios. Coarsely chop remaining cup pistachios in food processor, pulsing 8 times. Set aside. 3. Finely grind reserved pistachios with 45 seconds of processing. 4. To finely ground pistachio meal add: flour, baking powder, salt, and spices. Process 15 seconds to combine. Pour into mixing bowl and set aside. 5. Pour eggs into processor and process 3 minutes until fluffy. While the processor is running add sugar, butter, vanilla, and water to combine. Pour into a bowl. 6. Fold ½ of the flour mixture into the egg mixture. Fold in the remaining flour mixture and coarsely ground nuts. Do not over mix. 7. Mark 2 3x8” rectangles on parchment paper and stick to sheet pan with cooking spray. Divide dough in half. Flour hands. Use guides to shape loaves. Loaves spread during baking to about 4” wide. Lightly spray loaf tops with cooking spray and smooth with sprayed spatula. Brush with one egg white beaten with a pinch of salt. 8. Bake at 325°F for 25 minutes. 9. Cool on baking sheet for 30 minutes. 10. Slice ½” wide on slight bias. Place slices cut side down on wire rack on sheet pan. 11. Put back in the oven for 35 minutes flipping the cookies over half way through baking time. 12. Let cool completely.

I recently made the almond biscotti, and it was the best biscotti I've ever had. Pleasant almond flavor and just the right amount of crunch. I'd like to make this pistachio version, too!

Used make these in a restaurant years ago. I dip one side in chocolate and the other side in white chocolate 😋😋

@mayonnaiseeee 5 ай бұрын

That sounds really good. Was there any special preparation for the chocolate besides maybe melting them over a double boiler or in the microwave?

@samuelgates5935 5 ай бұрын

@@mayonnaiseeee No. Once both chocolates are melted, just dip each side into the corresponding chocolate. Then, lay each biscotti on a wire rack with a cookie sheet pan underneath. You can also drizzle each chocolate, making swirl patterns.....in other words, you're only limited by your imagination.😋

lol the closed captioning is describing Julia and Becky as 'Blonde' and 'Brunette.' Lovely recipe though, love that combo of spices - like a kicked up pumpkin pie spice and/or apple pie spice. They must taste amazing.

It's not really right to say "biscotti" means twice cooked in Italian. It means "cookies" and refers to many kinds of cookies (the type known as "biscotti" in English are called "cantucci" in Italian). Saying it means twice cooked is like saying "biscuit" means twice cooked (similar origin). It's a word which has a meaning more than the parts.

It is not pronounced bis-cah-tti, rather bis-coh-tti, same with bruschetta - it’s not bru-shett-ah, it is bru-skett-ah…lets not for get Ricotta…it’s not ri-caa-tta, it is ri-coat-ta. And there are so many others. Us Americans butcher these Italian words.
