Biscotti

The word biscotti has a double meaning. The root name stems from bis and cotto. Bis translates to “more than one” and cotto means “cooking” in Italian. In other words twice baked cookie. Venetian biscotti were a perfect provision for sailors who went to sea for months at a time. Even Christopher Columbus relied on biscotti for his long sea voyages. Today, biscotti is much sweeter and is enjoyed by many with their cappuccino and even dipped in their favorite wine.
