Biscotti Trivia!!

Here's some fun facts about a lovely treat that has been a traditional staple at all the coffee shops I've been to or worked at, but I never knew all the history behind it. So to enlighten you and I both I decided to research a little!! Here are some fun facts about this wonderful coffee compliment-er. ........

"Pronunciation: bee-SCOAT-tee

What It Means: The word "Biscotti" comes from bis and cotti, the Italian terms for twice-cooked or twice-baked. Biscotti is also the generic term for cookie in Italian.

How They Are Made: The dough is rolled into logs and baked once. They are then sliced diagonally by hand and baked a second time to make them firm and crunchy.

What They Are Made With: From the traditional anise/almond Biscotti to decadent new varieties like chocolate cioccolata and cherry vanilla, Biscotti are made with the finest and freshest ingredients. And, although butter, sugar, eggs, almonds and flour are the base, Biscotti are gaining popularity for being a light, satisfying and relatively low in fat and calorie snack.

Its Orgin: Traditionally an Italian classic, Biscotti have been baked for centuries. It was the perfect food for sailors who were at sea for months at a time. The biscuits were thoroughly baked to draw out moisture, becoming a cracker-like food that was resistant to mold. Biscotti were a favorite of Christopher Columbus who relied on them on his long sea voyage.

How They Are Eaten: Biscotti are eaten and enjoyed in many ways! Italians favor them as "dipping cookies" either in a delicious cup of coffee or cappuccino, or in a special Italian wine known as Vin Santo. They are enjoyed as a breakfast biscuit, dunked in coffee, and of course, Biscotti are savored as a subtly sweet crispy snack all by themselves!"
