I'd almost fly to the UK to give you a hug :-). Finally someone that calls these with their proper name: cantucci. Why do people keep calling them biscotti? That's just Italian for biscuits."<BR/>I'll stick with cantucci, then... or maybe I'll just be quiet and gobble them all up while the rest of the table discusses which is the right name ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1154608988309916002006-08-03T15:43:00.000+03:002006-08-03T15:43:00.000+03:00Tom - I'm glad you liked the my cantucci:) Now tha...Tom - I'm glad you liked the my cantucci:) Now that you have the recipe, you can make these yourself. Re: Australian cooking - it's been rather popular recently indeed, and I love the Stephanie Alexander's & Bill Granger's books I've got. There's something relaxed and refreshing about their style, which really appeals to me. Sadly, I cannot buy any more cookbooks at the moment, or I'd never be able to transport them home in October. But there are several more Australian cookbooks I absolutely must have one day..<BR/><BR/>Angelika - you're welcome. The only other cantucci I've made were orange and almond ones (recipe from Tessa Kiros' Twelve), and Johanna's were definitely more tasty and interesting. Your fellow Austrian blogger is a great source of decadent recipes, isn't she?<BR/><BR/>Paz - they were delicious indeed, but when you make these in NY, call them biscotti, or people will be lost otherwise:)Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1154584181128043782006-08-03T08:49:00.000+03:002006-08-03T08:49:00.000+03:00Cantucci/biscotti, I'm sure it tastes delicious.Pa...Cantucci/biscotti, I'm sure it tastes delicious.<BR/><BR/>PazAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1154553121565494502006-08-03T00:12:00.000+03:002006-08-03T00:12:00.000+03:00Pille thank you for reminding me.

I forgot how wonderful it can be to have ginger and peppery flavours in sweet foods. It reminded me of the first time I tasted chocolate with chilli flavours. <BR/><BR/>Also, I have noticed from your blog that you have a huge respect for Australian cooking: Stephanie Alexander, Bill Granger, David Thompson and Christine Manfield. Is this accidental or do you think Australian cooking is a venture in risk-taking?<BR/><BR/>Cheers, TomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
