I'm blowing the lid off this whole scam. Biscotti is just cut-up pieces of a big fucking cookie. What a scam. Why would you ever bother with biscotti when you could just not cut up the big cookie and have a big cookie? I can't believe I never saw it before. 3/29/2017 10:23:41 AM |

I'm so mad about this. It's just a way to sell one cookie to four people. What a bunch of bullshit. 3/29/2017 10:31:33 AM |

I like to dip biscotti in coffee. If you have a big cookie and try and cut it up...it could break apart.
BISCOTTI ALL DAY! 3/29/2017 11:04:54 AM |

Can a man not have biscotti thoughts and also read VSB? If I gotta pick, it won't be pretty. 3/29/2017 2:41:13 PM |

It's also a stale cookie. So instead of throwing it out, they chunk it up and sell it to 4 people.3/30/2017 9:39:16 PM |

^ probably tongue-in-cheek usage of "stale", but if not, define it.
IMO, there is only one way to eat biscotti: dipped in hot milky tea or coffee.

If y'all get a chance to buy the product below, do it. They are like crack.
Yes, they are actually soft and chewy, and super scrumptious.

Quote : | "While we have the utmost respect for authenticity when it comes to food preparation, a deviation from tradition every now and then can yield curiously delicious results. Take biscotti, for example: its traditionally crispy crunch is achieved by being baked not once, but twice, creating a firm biscuit that is ideal for dunking in a beverage. A few tweaks to the cooking process and you have something entirely different, yet still delicious, on your hands...
Trader Giotto’s Soft-Baked Biscotti with Dried Figs are made by hand in a well-established bakery in Tuscany, Italy. Wheat flour, sugar, eggs and butter are mixed together to create the dough, and sizable dried figs from Turkey are gently folded into the mixture, which is then rolled into logs, flattened and baked.
Unlike traditional biscotti that are twice-baked, these Soft-Baked Biscotti are baked once, slowly, at low temperature, to achieve a delicately chewy and unexpectedly moist texture—and to avoid drying out the figs. After the baking process is complete, the biscotti are taken to a temperature-controlled room to “rest” and properly cool, then sliced and packaged by hand." |

Did you just ask someone to define "stale" ^^ !? 3/31/2017 8:53:28 AM |

Bump. I just ate one of these bullshits with my coffee. My conviction endures. 8/17/2017 7:49:33 AM |

^^ Yes, I did, because biscotti ? "stale cookie", using the definition of "stale" that's used almost exclusively.
^ Did you take a bite then take a sip to let the biscotti soften in the mouth, or did you dunk and eat? I haven't had one for a couple of years now at least, but when I do, I dunk into my hot tea for a while until it becomes soft. Takes a while as they are so dense and hard. Can't remember exactly, but I guess a 10-15 sec dunk, maybe up to 20 sec depending on thickness and temp of the drink.
And you gotta get one with a strong flavor to enjoy it, otherwise the plain ones or those with mild flavors are, well, boring. 8/17/2017 10:01:56 AM |

I dunked and ate. It was damn near instantaneous. The cookie piece got soft fast. 8/17/2017 2:59:55 PM |

Hmmm... maybe then I am all hazy on the details as I haven't had one for some years.
Anyway, the point is to let it soften to the degree you like.
Some like their baked-flour-product to turn out mushy after dunking, some prefer it still retains some of the crunchiness/crispness. So you have to adjust the dunking time according to your preference, the product, and the beverage to achieve optimal-to-you results. 8/17/2017 3:07:03 PM |
