The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

ingredients
2 eggs
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3 cup olive oil
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes (not oil packed)
directions
In large bowl, beat eggs and sugar. Add olive oil until smooth.
In bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and basil. Stir dry ingredients into egg mixture until blended. Stir in cheese and sun-dried tomatoes.
Divide dough into 2 pieces and shape (if sticky, flour hands) each into a log about 10 inches long. Place about 4 inches apart on parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Flatten tops slightly.
Bake in preheated 325 degrees F oven for 30 minutes or until pale golden and not quite firm to the touch. Remove from oven and let cool on baking sheet for 3 minutes. Transfer to cutting board and slice into 1/2 inch diagonal slices with serrated knife.
Place pieces on baking sheet and return to 325 degrees F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until firm and dry. Turn over partway through cooking time. Cool on rack.

I followed directions exactly and had about 13 crumbly biscotti. What a disappointment! I'd like to know how to get the number shown with 2 cups of flour.
