Makes 60 Biscotti. Be careful with the first baking of these biscotti.
Even though they are baked a second time after being cut, if they do not
bake sufficiently the first time, the biscotti will have a hard, heavy
core.

PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Combine all ingredients except honey and water in a
mixing bowl and stir a minute or 2 to mix. Add the honey and water and stir
until a firm dough forms. Remove dough from bowl and divide in half. Roll
each half into a log about 15 inches long. Place both logs, well apart, on
a jelly roll pan lined with parchment or buttered wax paper. Bake about 30
minutes, until well risen, firm and a dark golden color. Remove from oven,
cool logs slightly and place on a cutting board. Slice the logs diagonally
at 1/2-inch intervals. Return the cut biscotti to the pan, cut side down,
and bake an additional 15 minutes, until lightly colored and dry. Cool on
the pan. Store in a tin--they keep well.
