Funzionalità Premium
Biscotti con le Nocciole offers a delightful combination of nutty, sweet, and slightly toasty flavors.
The dominant flavor is the rich, earthy taste of hazelnuts, which complements the subtle sweetness of the biscuit base. The double-baking process caramelizes the sugars, adding a depth of flavor and a characteristic crunch. A hint of anise or vanilla may also be present, depending on the specific recipe.

Proper Baking Technique
The double-baking process is crucial. The first bake sets the shape, while the second bake dries out the biscotti, creating the characteristic crispness. Allow the biscotti to cool completely after each bake.
Even Hazelnut Distribution
Ensure the hazelnuts are evenly distributed throughout the dough for a consistent flavor and texture in each biscotto.
Cutting Technique
Use a serrated knife and a gentle sawing motion to cut the biscotti logs into slices to prevent them from crumbling.
