Don't call them cantuccini
I like cantuccini, but the ones above - packed in the traditional blue
bag since 1858 - shouldn't be confused with them: these are Biscotti di Prato!
Made with sugar, flour, fresh eggs, pine nuts and almonds (no butter!),
biscotti di Prato are a typical Tuscan dessert, and they are baked
daily, following the old recipe of Antonio Mattei. They are excellent
both on their own and dipped in some Vinsanto, a lovely Tuscan sweet
wine.
