We bake the old way. Cold butter, slow ovens, a hundred-year-old recipe book that has not been rewritten since 1892, and a pair of careful hands.
Linzeraugen, those small jam-filled shortbread cookies with cut-out windows, descend from the Linzer baking tradition that first appeared in an Austrian manuscript in 1653. Sachertorte was invented in Vienna in 1832 by a sixteen-year-old apprentice. Marble cake has been a quiet staple of Austrian kitchens for generations.
We bake these the way they were written. Cold butter, slow ovens, no shortcuts. Every Sunday we set up a folding table at the Brentwood Farmers Market and bring them to Los Angeles.
