Hands, butter, and a hundred-year recipe.

AN AUSTRIAN BAKERY IN BRENTWOOD

OUR STORY · A LETTER FROM HASRET

I grew up in Vienna,
ten minutes from a palace
called Belvedere.

My grandmother lived on the top floor of an old building on Hofburg-Allee, and on Saturdays I would walk up four flights to her kitchen and help her roll out Linzer dough. She would say: "Patience is half the recipe."

Years later, I brought her recipe book to Los Angeles. Nothing about the book has changed — only the address. I bake what she baked, and on Sundays I bring it to the Brentwood farmers market.

"Patience is half the recipe.
The other half is butter."
