1 3/4 c  Flour
    1/2 ts Baking soda
    1/2 ts Baking powder
    1/8 ts Salt
    1/2 tb Pepper; black
    1/2 c  Butter
      1 c  Sugar
      2    Egg
      2 ts Orange peel; grated

  Sift first 4 ingredients into medium bowl.  Mix in pepper.  Using electric
  mixer, cream butter in another bowl until light.  Gradually add sugar and
  beat until fluffy.  Mix in eggs one at a time.  Mix in orange peel and
  vanilla and almond extracts.  Mix in walnuts.  Add dry ingredients and mix
  just until blended.  Cover dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate until
  well chilled. (Can be prepared one day ahead.) Preheat oven to 350. Butter
  and flour 2 baking sheets.
  Divide dough into 3 pieces.  Using lightly floured hands, roll each piece
  into 1 1/2 inch diameter log on lightly floured surface.
  Arrange 2 logs on one sheet, spacing 5 inches apart.  Arrange third log on
  second sheet. Bake until logs are light brown, about 20 minutes (logs will
  spread during baking).  Cool slightly on pan.  Cut logs crosswise on
  diagonal into 3/4 inch wide slices.  Turn cut side down on baking sheet.
  Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  Transfer to racks and cool. Store in airtight container.
