I love biscotti, but they were rarely available in the rural areas where I worked (one exception: in northern Minnesota, where a mixture of Scandanavian farmers, Objibwe Indians, and back to nature yuppies all managed to get along).
When we moved to New Mexico, I tried baking them, but found a problem in baking anything, since we lived at 7000 feet and I never got the time to experiment with adjusting the recipe.
So go here for a recipe on how to make Almond Biscotti at Joy of Baking:

or watch this video:
and no, they don't sell biscotti at the local Palenke, but we can buy them in Manila or at Starbucks (the nearest Starbucks is located on the highway on the way to Manila).
However, we now can buy pizza in town (several "take out" shops now will cook a frozen pizza for you), and we can get decent bread at "Pan De Manila" at the mall, so things are improved a lot in the last ten years...
