- Grate the ginger finely: Finely grated ginger will distribute its flavor more evenly throughout the biscotti.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscotti tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will make it easier to handle and will help the biscotti hold their shape in the oven.
- Bake the biscotti twice: Baking the biscotti twice will give them a crispy texture.
- Cool the biscotti completely before storing: Cooling the biscotti completely will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming soggy.
