Linzertote preparation boardby *Theminibookmaker

Artisan Crafts / Miniatures / Food

All is ready to start making more linzertorte!
This mini scene was entirely handmade; even the cutlery (i'm learning to make it so, it doesn't look so good yet

)

According to foodreference.com:

..."The Linzertorte is one of the oldest known tarts with a recipe discovered in an Austrian abbey from 1653. Johann Konrad Vogel (1796-1883) is credited with first mass producing it while Franz Holzlhuber, an Austrian émigré who worked as a baker, is recognized for introducing it to America around 1856.

Linzer cookies employ the same recipe as the Linzertorte but instead the dough is cut into cookies and two of them form a sandwich around the preserves. Moreover, the top cookie has a small cutout in its center (known as Linzer eyes), thus exposing the underlying jam and adding to the visual appeal. While the traditional cutout is circular, all sorts of shapes, such as hearts, are also popular. .."
