Hello again,
just a short message to the lady who said that biscotti weren't
period (I'm catching up on old posts after my trip): try the recipe
for Biskit Bread from the English corpus. I've forgotten what book
it comes out of - Huswife's Jewell, I think - perhaps someone can
help me there? I've made it (and cheated on the beating time, which
was a bad idea - if it says beat it for an hour, 15 mins is not
enough) and it was very close. I cut it too thick and it was
rocklike, but maybe you can do a better job. It's basically standard
biscotti with fennel seed (IIRC) flavouring, plus rosewater, and it's
good. Come to think of it, why not institute this hour-long
cake-beating thing as a form of fighter training?
