How To make Biscotti Di Prato (Little Almond Cookies)
2 oz Almonds, blanched
6 oz Almonds, unblanched
4 c Unbleached all-purpose flour
1 3/4 c Granulated sugar
3 Extra-large eggs
1 pn Salt
1 pn Ground saffron
1 ts (scant) baking soda
1 Extra-large egg white
Preheat the oven to 375F. Place both the blanched and unblanched almonds on a cookie sheet and toast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, until golden brown. Grind 4 ounces of mixed blanched and unblanched almonds very fine, then cut the remaining toasted almonds into two or three pieces each. Place the flour on a pasta board in a mound and make a well in the center. Put the sugar and eggs in the well. Mix the sugar and eggs together well, then add the salt, saffron, and baking soda. Mix thoroughly and when all the ingredients in the well are well integrated, incorporate the flour little by little, until all but about 2 tablespoons is incorporated. Set the leftover flour aside. Knead the dough for 10 to 15 minutes, then add the very finely ground almonds and the almond pieces. Knead for 2 to 3 minutes more, incorporating the remaining flour. Divide the dough into 8 pieces. With your hands, shape each piece into a long, thin roll about 3/4 inch in diameter, then place, widely apart on a buttered and floured cookie sheet. Beat the egg white slightly in a small bowl and lightly coat the tops of the 8 rolls with it, using a pastry brush, then put the baking sheet into the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove the rolls from the oven (they will expand in size sideways) and cut them with a long slicing knife at a 45-degree angle every 3/4 inch to get the shape required for this type of little cookie, or biscotti. Place the biscotti back in the oven, this time at 275F, for 35 to 45 minutes. They will be very dry.
NOTE: These cookies are much better eaten after 2 or 3 days, when they have softened a little; keep them in a paper bag. If you wish to keep them indefinitely, transfer after a week to a jar or can. Serves 8 to 10.

Traditional Tuscan Recipes: Cantucci
The almond biscuits from Prato are called either biscotti or cantucci.
Bis-cotto, literally in Italian cooked again, reveals how it is actually made: it is baked twice. They are a favourite sweet treat to end a meal, either on their own or dunked in a little glass of vinsanto.

About Biscotti
Biscotti, known also as cantucci , are Italian almond biscuits that originated in the Tuscan city of Prato. They are twice-baked, oblong-shaped, dry, crunchy, and may be dipped in a drink, traditionally Vin Santo. Modern biscotti recipes often contain nuts (traditional almonds, pine nuts, pistachios, and hazelnuts are popular choices) or spices such as anise or cinnamon.
Modern recipes include adding baking powder and spices to the flour. The nuts are then added to allow them to be coated, with the skins being left particularly when using almonds and hazelnuts.Since they are very dry, biscotti traditionally are served with a drink, into which they may be dunked. In Italy they are typically served as an after-dinner dessert with a Tuscan fortified wine called vin santo.Outside of Italy, they more frequently accompany coffee, including cappuccinos and lattes, or black tea. Following twice baking (once in long slab form, secondly in cut sliced form), the biscotti may be dipped in a glaze, such as chocolate.

Biscotti de Almendras / Cantucci
Cantucci, más comúnmente conocidos como Biscotti, son galletitas dulces secas con almendras, originarias de la Toscana, más particularmente de la ciudad de Prato, por eso también se las conoce como Biscotti di Prato. Se caracterizan por tener una doble cocción en el horno que las hace crujientes. La manera más tradicional de disfrutar de los Cantucci es acompañarlos con una copa de Vin Santo. En Argentina, un vino Mistela es el ideal.
