Yeah. And I never got that either. My Aunts are always so happy to get together to make biscotti. And I have to chomp on it and pretend I like it. I guess it never dawned on them that I never asked for the recipe.
True biscotti are supposed to be very dry, because they’re intended to dunk into coffee. I have had seen products called “biscotti” that are more like crumbly cookies and were good to eat by themselves, but I think this form isn’t traditional. Butter (or any fat) would certainly make a product more tender.
Yeah, they're normally baked twice, but when I make biscotti I only bake it once so it stays a bit chewy in the middle. Sure, it keeps for longer if you bake it twice, but it might break your teeth as well...
Yeah, you are meant to dip them in your coffee to soften them, or they are crushed and used on top of desserts.
