ANISE BISCOTTI
My aunt would make anise recipes all the time for dessert and these biscotti were my favorite. I can remember walking into the house and I'd almost swoon when I smelled them baking-the aroma seemed to fill every room. -Esther Perea, Van Nuys, California

NONNA'S BISCOTTI
A few years ago, I copied down my Italian grandmother's recipes. She had collected them all in a box, in preparation for moving to a retirement community. Unfortunately, during the move, she lost the box, and now I'm the sole recipient of her culinary heritage. She was a fine cook, and a wonderful baker. She died a few months ago.
