Biscotti with Almonds

[ComradeCanadia]

Great video! Very helpful, I'll be making biscotti tonight with your recipe.

[leftofcentr]

Thanks! I've never made biscotti - but I'm going to try it out. =)

[Gordon22141]

Did u do anything so the dough won't stick to the pan when u bake the biscotti???

[videoqueen45]

@Gordon22141 I used a none stick pan and used a plastic spatula so not to scrape the pan. Also, a better way to handle the dough is to wet your hands with water first. Giuseppe.

[gcmel86]

Seems like an easy recipe...will try it for sure...grazie Giuseppe

[angelikabodie]

thank you i will definitely make this, i love biscotti!

[contrymnon]

Is it okay if I use all-purpose flour?

[videoqueen45]

@contrymnon Yes, you can use all-purpose flour - I used to use that for biscotti as well.

[Naemee62]

I'd made de recipe, it was yummii!!!!! thank you very very much!!

[MrYumyumgivemesum]

I can't believe it. I've had great success with making the bicotti. I would love to see more of your down to earth recipes if you have any. Thankyou.

[alexiusfery14]

at first, i confused why he didn't chop raw the almonds. voila, i got the idea... the whole nuts looked good in the biscottis... LOL

[tareqghazal]

I just tried this recipe and my family loved it. I used whole wheat flour which made it drier and therefore required an extra egg and two spoonfulls of yougert.

Thank you

[guesswho2390]

Would the recipe change much if i used wheat flour? and would it taste similar n have the same crunch if i do use wheat flour? i always follow this recipe but im currently out of white flour n really want to make this right away :) thx!

[videoqueen45]

@guesswho2390 I never tried it with whole wheat flower, but if you do, try

substituting some sugar in the recipe with molasses. go for it and let me know how it turns out!

[weaver2109]

Just made some cranberry/pistachio biscotti using this recipe, thanks for uploading!

[guesswho2390]

I made this. Just perfect. And I love that you didn't use butter which as you said would make it kinda soft and not so dunking-friendly. Thanks!!

[rosewood513]

I love this I am going to make these, I just bought a biscotti for $1.00 and it was not good.

YOu do a great video thanks

[widdigroemerstrasse]

thank you very much

[1lovemocha]

Hey baby,

Make some more of your dad's recipes!! Especially baking items. You are too cute. Your wife is lucky and i bet you clean the house too!

[deeptishetty25]

ur adorable!!! thanks for the recipee..im definitely gonna add it:)

[TheOfficialIdiots]

Okay so i saw this video on another site, and im not sure, because it has a different recipe. You didnt make this clear but did you use butter? And how much if so?

[videoqueen45]

@TheOfficialIdiots No, I did not use butter, but you can add 2 tablespoons of butter or vegetable oil and the biscotti will be slightly softer, like a cookie.

[jmonge12]

thank you,,, the recipe came out perfect

[gvkpavan]

Good Sir,

Thank you very much for the video. Before watching this video I could never have imagined myself to be on the 'making' side of biscottis. I made a batch using your exact recipe and another with pistachios, walnuts and raisins thrown in with the almonds. Result? Delizioso!

[MrTrabandou]

I would like to thank you for the time taken, am pretty sure that am going to enjoy this italian recipe . I realy loved your video because for its simplicity

thank you again

[lizsy775]

[Cahoula]

The sugar and the flour together? Hummm. And whole almonds, not chopped?

I'll might try it.

[marinapia]

This video was not only informative but it was very sweet to watch you cook your darling. All the best to you.

[calin719]

Made my grandma's biscotti today, but her recipe has oil... ALSO her reciipe calls for 20 mins @375... BUT I think I'll try 300 for 30 mins.. and THEN turn... Good idea way to try it!!! Thank you so much for the recipe!

[1986boy]

Thanks for making the video, I'm gonna make my for christmas as christmas gift for everyone. hope it works this time

[geminijem]

Thank you so much for making this video! I am going to try to make biscotti for the first time to share at Christmas Time and for my sister to give to my niece's teachers. Your video helped relieve my fear of messing up!

[shafaq007]

Awesome!!!! Biscotti has no butter so it's better then other cookies, cakes and pasteries. Thank you so much. My parents are from Pakistan and I will try and make this with my family. The fact that you used a lot of almonds makes it a healthier alternative. Once again...thanks!

[shafinasmubarak]

wish u can post a video on making cannolis..tq sir:)

[AL13NSandSQU41D5]

Love the almonds in the biscotti



[floradjan150614]

good teaching... thank you!

[moretumi00]

Thank you!! That looks great!!And you explained it very well!

[GessiFrissi]

Hi, I used your recipe yesterday, didn´t change a thing and the result was marvellous! Thank you very much.

[2608vii]

I really like this video, and I love the way you explain :D

Congratulations!

Keep uploading more videos... :)

[brianandsharon07]

I can't stop watching your videos...your recipies only slightly differ from my family. These videos bring back precious memories of me and my grandmother and mother in the kitchen, cooking for my nosey uncles who used to come and dip thier fingers in whatever uncooked pot we were working on...lol:) thank you so much, you are such a nice man.

[MsCampobasso]

Joe, can you show us how to do anise cookies..not too heavy. Would it be just like the almond biscotti batter, but replacing the almonds & extract and adding the anise? Please do some more videos. Your bringing back our Italian memories!

[MsCampobasso]

no anise oil/extract?

[virajkarnik]

merci ! this is a nice way of teaching how to make biscotti ,i just noted down the ingrediants as i watched.. i cant wait to make and bake . Thank you!

[casusbelli15]

I, like many others, am spending a small fortune on store/coffee shop bought biscotti.

With much belt tightening required in this climate, I will be giving this a go.

I bet they will taste all the better for it!

Thanks for uploading keep up the good work.

[ArloClyne]

Loved it! Have my first go in the oven as I type. Keep it up.

[ClinkClink69]

i love this, its so easy!

[Sizzy84]

You're such a sweet person! Thanks for the wonderful recipe! :)

[farhasebi]

Giuseppe, your biscotti is absolutely wonderful. They came out truly perfect! Can you suggest how to store them once they are freshly made? I.e. do you keep them out for a night and then keep them in a container?

[JODAILEE]

hi i love that your biscotti i made them today but i put cranberry it was so good everybody loved then

[videoqueen45]

@JODAILEE I think putting cranberries in the biscotti is a great idea!! I should inlay that suggestion into the video for people that have peanut intolerance! thank you for your response!

[blahhh070]

excellent video! you're such a nice guy, haha

[missyc86]

Great video!!! I made them today, they are fantastic. I love italian recipes.

[TeTtANeOmElODiKa2]

Compliments..you are best..very veri good..bye bye from naples! kiss

[kerryrose1970]

My favorite, do you have a chocolate recipe? Thanks so much I will try for sure.

[mikeycbd]

great Video Giuseppe!

[sugarpasted]

Hi Giuseppe!

Im trialing your recipe tomorrow (for our new cafe opening in 2 months here in the UK)

Your instructions are really clear and your accent is cool!lol

I'll keep you posted with the verdict

Thanks!

J

[EdugeBDroN]

I like Giuseppe and his accent

[montrealstars60]

Giuseppe I just wanted you to know that I did the biscotti. They are delicious. We always make them, your recipe doesn't call for oil as my mom's but the taste is the same.

They remind me of the Cantucci made in Tuscany because they are crunchy and delicious!

PS I had problems rolling them in logs, had to put the batter in the baking pan with a spoon, but the result was the same....

[Fik87]

Mine came out rather well, thank you very much :)

For some strange reason though, I forgot to split the thing into two logs, and made one big one. Now. little bits of dough at the top of each biscotti are missing. Why did that happen? Please bear in mind that it was the first time I've ever baked anything. Cheers

[montrealstars60]

my recipe has oil and I dice my almonds, but for the rest, you're fantastic.

Giuseppe you just showed to prove how nice we Italians are in the kitchen. COMPLIMENTI

[videoqueen45]

Hi! Thanks for your response and your really nice comments on my videos! My parents are from a town called Buccheri, located 25 west of Syracuse, Sicily. My father was baker and later became a chef in America - I guess I got some of his technique! I became a bricklayer (retired) and as you can see in my videos, cooking has become my hobby! Do you have any suggestions for what my next video can be? Thank you again for your comments!

[KissHope]

That is biscotti made with love. Making these today...might throw in a few choc chips too.

[malfirst]

You needed a better beater! Regardless you made the best impressive biscotti!ThANX HEAPS!!!!

[SAYURIKANAI]

Thanks for this video!

His biscotti look amazing!!

He takes care of everything, he seems!

Super!!

[Lucyidea]

Yes I made it. Everybody love it!! I receive a lot praises ! Thank you for sharing the recipe!!

[afghanmac]

Yes, I made it. It came out good. But not that sweet and I"m usually the type to lessen sugar...so you know it wasn't that sweet! He adds one cup...but next time I'm adding 2 cups and watch your almonds! Mine almost burned.

[Axenmoon]

i had to use a second bag, they burned on me

[edlinrazza8387]

[DreeLulu]

You're a hoot ...down to earth n proud of his biscotti. Don't blame him they look good....wasn't certain for a minute but they turned out great..keep up with the cooking Videoqueen45

[Veetina]

thanks for explaining it sounds good!

[chefcommons]

Nice work, we liked your video very much so we embedded it on ChefCommons . com w/ link back and reference to Youtube. (Let us know if you don't wish for it to be featured)

[karpoezi]

this way I found it abit too "bready",

I always use some butter for more "desert" feeling , it keeps crispy edges but without breaking your teeth ,

Also after cutting it if you put it direct on a grill roster you will not have to turn them over.

Hope this helps

[videoqueen45]

I never tried it that way before, it sounds pretty good! Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try it out!

[takahashiwongwong]

it's Sicilian

[PhoenixAnnie]

Do you know the recipe I am looking for??? please email me me if you do I have been searching for a long time.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

[takahashiwongwong]

describe it for me..

[PhoenixAnnie]

It is a flour batter similar to this biscotti but she would make it like in a loaf with apricot marmalade type filling. The cookie I believe is the typical Italian cookie like a cake cookie. I hope I described it ok and she was from Sicily.

[takahashiwongwong]

i don't know for sure lol it might be a type of biscotti

[nzsmidey]

I'm off to give it a go now, thanks!

[2020abcd]

They turned out great, thanks!

[fairietinkpink3]

Love the video and recipe! Can you cover part of the biscotti with chocolate? Any suggestions?

[videoqueen45]

Thank you! What a delicious idea - I've never tried it but I would suggest buying a bar of dark chocolate, melt it in the microwave, and either dip the biscotti in the chocolate or drizzle the chocolate over the biscotti, place on wax paper and pop it in the fridge until the chocolate hardens.

[fairietinkpink3]

Thank you for answering my question videoqueen45:)

[bennick88]

Such a lovely relaxed man...

[videoqueen45]

That's because I just polished off a half gallon of wine!

[jericho4686]

Joe could you do Ravioli..Please :)

[videoqueen45]

I wouldn't want to put Celentano out of business!

[jericho4686]

I love the way he is so relaxed...no airs about Joe...just to the point baking..I LOVE it!..Thanks so much :)

[vicken9]

[mariuscipolla]

[videoqueen45]

I have asked around for this recipe, but no recipes like this in the family - Try my cannoli recipe with apricot ice cream instead!

[jeffshubert]

Seeing you make this gives me the courage to try it out. They look really good with a lot of almonds like that. Thanks again!

[silentzwiifey]

Ive just done making these for my sister inlaw shes taking them to a Christmas party I hope she likes them ..Me and my boyfriend loved them we dipped them in milk and tastes just like the ones my mum used to have in the kitchen Thanx :)

[Robinamaria]

I loved that video! Those were beautiful. I'm sure gonna make those!

[videoqueen45]

They are definitely worth making - The recipe is definitely a keeper! Hope yours turn out great!

[AllCreaturesTT]

This was very helpful to this newbie to biscotti.

[videoqueen45]

glad you found it helpful! be sure to visit my other recipe videos!

[vallo3838]

Joe you did a good job.

[Tonithetiger4]

Joe, you could toast the almonds in the oven.

I think you put too much flour on the biscotti before putting it in the oven. Also it would be easier if you used parchment paper on the cookie sheet.
