My name is Euan, and I live in Gloucestershire with my partner (aka husband) and our two cats.
About a year ago, I bought a book called Biscotti by Mona Talbott and Mirella Misenti. It wasn’t long before I was spending every Saturday morning making some new and delicious Italian biscuit. They were a hit with my partner, and after a while he started calling me Signor Biscotti. Hence the title of this blog.
I intend to write about my baking experiences, not just with biscotti, but with almost anything else I have a go at baking. Actually, I’m not going to promise that it will always be baking. Or even Italian! Apple Pie, Amaretti, Pasta with Pistachio… who knows what I’ll do next?
such a cute story!

haven’t come here for a while and I am astonished at all the wonderful baking goods you wrote about. and I love your pictures too!
can we share recipes?
Aw, thank you. I’m happy to share recipes. What did you have in mind?
just a way of saying… kind of like when sharing “figurine” with friends as kids
Ah I see. I think we had a cross-cultural misunderstanding incident there
What a beautifully photographed blog! I stumbled upon it whilst looking for biscotti recipes which I can make which are lactose free and egg yolk free. I think I might be able to modify some of your recipes. Will see how I go. Will try the ciambelle recipe!
Thanks Giovanna. I think both the Biscotti al pistachio and Biscotti alle mandorle amare are lactose and egg yolk free. And you could use white wine in place of the milk in the ciambelline, as the original recipe used that.
Ciao, ho scoperto il tuo blog che mi piace tantissimo, anche perchè adoro i biscotti, che preferisco farli da me così almeno so cosa ci metto dentro.
Inoltre faccio un po’ di esercizio con l’inglese.
Complimenti e a presto.
What a wonderful Blog, you put me to shame with mine,
Love the recipes, I have now saved you to my Favourites and will have a look each day while having a cuppa
Found you while googling for a recipe for Ginger Curd, Up pops your site
I hope you don’t mine I have copied it and will be trying it out this week, Also shared it with a lovely Face Book site we have over here in France called LIFT – Ladies in France Together. I also mentioned your blog and suggested the Ladies have a look at it.
Thank you for your kind words. Good luck with the Ginger Curd. I hope your ladies like it too.
