In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and rosemary. Set aside.

Add the eggs, 1 at a time, incorporating each egg fully before adding the next.
Add the vanilla. and gently stir in the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in currants.

Bake until just starting to brown at the edges, about 35 minutes.
Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets. While the biscotti logs are still warm, cut each log into 1/2-inch wide slices on the diagonal.
Place the slices back on the baking sheet (using 2 baking sheets if necessary to fit all the slices).
Remove the baking sheets from the oven. Turn the biscotti over and bake for an additional 7 to 8 minutes, until the biscotti are crisp.
Let the biscotti cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet(s).
Serve when cooled to room temperature, or store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio
Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio are my top picks for Italian. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. The Castello di Monsanto Il Poggio Chianti Classico Riserva with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 40 dollars per bottle.
