Parmesan Cheese Black Pepper Biscotti
#11
  Re: (...)
We've been trying different savoury biscotti recipes, hopeing to use them as appetizers. This one was a winner. I didn't have enough good parmesan, so used 1/2 green box/half good (yup I did, don't shoot me!). I used s coarse ground restaurant style pepper that we buy in bulk. the recipe was very different from most biscotti recipes I have made, in that it called for cold, cubed unsalted butter. The dough was very similar to a biscuit dough. The taste was fabulous, and I think they will make a great addition to a cheese board. If any wants the recipe, I'll try to post it later, busy making jams right now.

YES! Please and thank you!

Daphne, you probably don't have good luck making biscotti because of the high humidity where you live. It's been a problem for me at times. I had to bake some 3 times once just to get them "crispy" enough. Another time, I just cut them thinner and that helped.

And, also one of my sons' f-i-l always wanted me to leave some baked only once for him. He was truly Italian and that's how his mama gave them to him.

I do have a black pepper biscotti, but I'd sure love to see your recipe, Lorraine! I haven't made it for the longest time.

At the pace Lorraine comes on I think you'll be fine Cis - but I will write myself a note...then hope it doesn't get buried.

Have fun - enjoy all the fish! (my eyes are so darn green)

A bit late, but here it is:


1.5 T whole black peppercorns
4 C all purpose flour
2 T baking powder
2 t salt
2.25 C finely grated parmesan cheese (4.5 ounces)
– putting 1/4 C aside
1.5 sticks cold unsalted butter cut into 1/2 inch cubes
4 large eggs (3 for biscotti, 1 for glazing)
1 C whole milk

Preheat oven to 350. Pulse peppercorns in grinder until coarsely ground. Put aside 1/2 T aside to sprinkle on biscotti logs for baking. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, 2 C cheese and 1 T pepper into kitchen aid bowl. Using the paddle, add the chilled butter, and mix until mixture resembles coarse meal. Whisk 3 eggs with milk and add. Mix only until dough comes together. Divide dough, and roll into 15 inch logs on a lightly floured surface. Place 4 logs on parchment lined baking sheet. Whisk remaining egg and brush some over logs, sprinkle the logs with the remaining 1/4 C cheese and 1/2 T pepper. Bake, rotating cookies for about 30 minutes until golden and firm. Cool about 10 minutes and cut diagonally into 1/2 inch slice. Reduce oven to 300. Bake the slices, turning over once, until golden and crisp. 25 to 30 more minutes.
