The biscotti had its origin in Roman times They are a dry, crunchy cookie that contains no fat and quite nourishing. .A food with sustenance and carried by the Roman Legions into battle; perhaps this action help fuel the expansion of the Roman Empire since they were so light and easy to carry into battle.
The biscotti became famous throughout Italy, but in Tuscany is where flavors expanded to anisette, amaretto and lemon
Columbus is said to have carried the biscotti to the New World, as he needed a viable food source that would resist moisture and mold on his journeys.
My family has made the biscotti for many years, and my wife Eleanor prefers the Lemon_Cranberry biscotti.
