RECIPES/IDEAS:

  

(Cookies, biscotti...)

  
Orange-Walnut Shortbread

  

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup sugar

1/8 tsp. salt

2 tsps. orange zest (grated rind)

1/2 cup firm butter

1 cup finely chopped walnuts

1 tbsp. orange juice

Stir together flour, sugar, salt, and zest. Cut in butter until crumbly and in small particles. Mix in the juice and 3/4 cup of the nuts. Press mixture into a lump and then evenly into a greased baking dish (approximating a 7x11" pan). Bake at 325 degrees for 40-45 minutes until pale golden. Cool slightly and sprinkle with the remaining nuts (and a dusting of granulated sugar, if you like). Cut into pieces as desired and cool completely in the pan before removing them. (If you cut into about 1 1/4" squares, it makes 4-5 dozen of them.)
