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 a cappuccino or dipped in their favorite glass of wine.
