Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

    For Carey, Vicki, Brian and anyone else interested, here's the
    Almond-Orange Biscotti recipe, published in Parade Magazine a few years ago.

    1. Preheat oven to 350.

    2. Grease and flour baking sheet. Shake off excess.

    3. In a large bowl, sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together.
    Make a well in center of mixture.

    4. To the well add remaining ingre- dients.With your hands, work dry mixture with liquids until a dough has been formed. Divide the dough in half.

    5. On a lightly floured surface, shape dough into 2 flat-bottomed cylinders, 1 in. high, 2 1/2 in. wide and 8 in. long. Remove each to the baking sheet.

    6. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until lightly colored on top. Remove from oven and cool slightly.

    7. Holding a long sharp knife by the handle and tip; cut cylinders diagonally into 3/4-in. slices. Carefully place slices back on baking sheet, cut sides down; return to oven for 15 minutes more and bake until sides are golden and biscotti have dried a bit. Remove from oven and
  cool
    on wire racks. The biscotti should be somewhat hard and crunchy.

Yield: 20 to 24 biscotti You can also dip one end into some melted chocolate, for a nice effect and great taste.
