Our biscotti are packaged in polypropylene film (European code #05). Few local authorities in the UK are able to accept the film bag in the local council recycling centre, although it can be recycled alongside carrier bags in large supermarkets.
In Italy, Amaretti are a household staple and referred to as "biscotti da credenza," which translates to "cupboard biscuits". They can be made either dry and crispy (secchi), or soft and chewy (morbidi).
