Who doesn’t love biscotti? I was very happy to find a recipe for sourdough biscotti. Let me tell you, this is absolutely delicious….if you can manage to chisel off a bite! I have never in all my years tried to eat anything this hard… hard candy excluded of course!! I’m talking “Ellie Mae biscuit” hard, from the tv sitcom The Beverly Hillbillies. Remember her biscuits could knock down a door! I’m talking break your tooth right out of your mouth, hard!! What good is all that deliciousness if you cannot bite it? I realize biscotti is to be dipped in coffee or tea but even at that it is undeniably hard. The good news is that if you have an infant that is trying to cut a tooth…here is your teething biscuit!! Just take some with you in your car and if someone tries to grab you just poke them in the eye with a biscotti and change their point of view!!!
Laying all jokes aside, this biscotti has a wonderful flavor and I intend to find a way to create a recipe that will not require a hammer a chisel to eat it. Bottom line is, that there are many recipes floating around on the internet. Some good…but some that need improvement! If you come across one that doesn’t suit your taste, don’t stop trying! Look for ways to tweak the recipe and make it into one that you and your family will love.
