Red wine biscuits

Method

1. Use your hands to make a soft dough by combining the flour, sugar, baking soda, olive oil and wine together until smooth.
2. Preheat the oven to 180°C and line 1–2 baking trays with baking paper, depending on size.
3. Take 1 tablespoon of dough and roll into a log a little wider than your palm – about 12 cm long and 1 cm thick. Bring the ends to meet and, overlapping slightly, press gently together to seal the rings.
4. Put a few tablespoons of sugar in a small shallow bowl or plate and press each ring, face down into the sugar. Place on the baking tray about 2 cm apart from each other.
5. Bake for 20 minutes or until pale golden and dry to the touch. Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.
6. These will keep several weeks when stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place.
