"Filled with classic recipes, creative innovations . . . The world of twice-baked sweets might seem challenging to new bakers, but Marchetti is a good coach." —Chicago Tribune
Ciao Biscotti is a collection of forty-four authentic biscotti from Italian cooking expert Domenica Marchetti. Studded with nuts, adorned with chocolate, or dotted with dried fruit, biscotti, Italy's unique twice-baked cookies have a crunchy, toasty, enduring appeal. Perfect for dunking into coffee, tea, or Vin Santo, they're easy to make; and transform a simple bowl of ice cream or sorbet into a special dessert. With savory ingredients swapped for the sweet ones, biscotti are a delicious accent to a cheese platter. Nibble on traditional flavors such as Hazelnut or Anise, coffeehouse neo-classics like Christmas Cranberry-Pistachio, tempting new versions such as Browned Butter and Toblerone, or savory ones, including Mountain Gorgonzola and Walnut, and taste the perfection of a classic cookie. Ciao biscotti!
"Will keep biscotti lovers happy for a very long time . . . Some of the old classics are here, like almond or anise biscotti, but she's also included some recipes for some not-so-traditional ones like browned butter and Toblerone." —Ciao Chow Linda
"You'll find yourself turning out batch after batch of these twice-baked delights in your own kitchen . . . packed with tips on technique and ingredients, and clear recipes make the baking easy." —L'Italo Americano

      Bold stripes, typefaces, and illustrations lend a modern feel to this mostly traditional collection of twice-baked Italian cookies. Marchetti (The Glorious Vegetables of Italy) begins with popular flavors (e.g., almond, hazelnut, anise) and then explores the sweeter glazed and chocolate-dipped varieties one sees in coffee shops. She also includes savory recipes (e.g., crispy pancetta, smoky gouda) and a handful of other classic cookies (e.g., oil and wine tarallucci, pistachio amaretti). Most home bakers will have the required base ingredients on hand and will just need to shop for nuts, dried fruits, and other flavorings, as well as suggested beverage pairings. VERDICT Marchetti's charming single-subject cookbook will complement most cookie collections. Its visual pizzazz sets it apart from other biscotti books, such as Mona Talbott and Mirella Misenti's Biscotti: Recipes from the Kitchen of the American Academy in Rome.
