until they emit an aroma, but haven't turned brown.
Put the flour, sugar, salt, powder, and grated zest in a bowl and combine
on med speed.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat w/ a whisk, eggs, oil and anise flavoring.
With the mixer running, pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture. When
almost mixed, reduce speed to low and add almonds and mix till dough just
comes together. Do not overmix.
Dump the dough onto a lightly floured surface ( or use confex sugar) and
knead by hand any remaining dry ingredients from the bottom of the bowl.
Divide the dough into 3 parts. Roll into a 10 inch logs (about 2 inches

then slice diagonally into biscotti.
