Summary: Best of the 3 biscotti books I purchased
Review: I have tried several of the recipes, with great results.
The US measurements haven't been a problem for this Kiwi cook - if the mix is a bit dry or moist I just add a little more of the wet or dry ingredients.No need for the food processing equipment mentioned, I have coped without quite happily...

Summary: Perfect hard biscotti
Review: I've just baked my first biscotti from this book (Double Chocolate Almond Biscotti). I tried to follow the recipe precisely but I didn't have parchment paper so I used greased foil, I didn't have almond extract, I put chocolate chips in the dough instead of almonds, the egg & sugar mixture would not thicken AND the dough was so sticky it would not form into a log as was needed so I wet my hands & shaped it as best I could AND....... oh my god it came out perfect...d elicious.... fabulous!!!
So this recipe is a keeper. Hope the rest are the same but I'm really into chocolate biscotti for now so I'll experiment with that.
P.S, there is no butter in the recipes! This is for the figure conscious eater!

Review: I've made many of the biscotti in this book and they've all turned out wonderfully. I especially like the espresso biscotti. It is easy to substitute ingredients -- I've added jalepano peppers to the sesame biscotti to rave reviews. I haven't purchased all the extracts suggested, but the baking parchment is a must.

Summary: I Buoni Biscotti!
Review: This book's got lots of excellent biscotti recipes, and I'm having fun trying a new one each week. Cranberry Pistachio was great, as were the Orange Almond.... Can't wait to try the Pignoli. Recipes are easy to follow, and produce great results. I like the fact that they aren't all sweet, and that they don't all require a food processor, etc. Her suggestions about the King Arthur Baker's catalogue for specific ingredients are great. Benissimo! The folks at work are enjoying the results.

Summary: Great treats and easy to make
Review: This is a great book if you have made biscotti before or are just getting into it. You'll discover that it isnt difficult to make great looking cookies and all my friends were very impressed. There are helpful hints about baking and ingredients as well as the recipes. The sweet cookie recipes are imaginative although they sometimes call for hard to find ingredients. There is also a section of recipes for appetizer style biscotti--not sweet but a great replacement for breads. Overall, a useful book that will bring you compliments.
