A recipe I always love to make during the holiday season is my Linzer Torte that is an elevated version of my grandmother's classic Linzer cookies that we grew up with.

It was his first restaurant as chef and owner, the start of a minor Austrian empire that now includes Blaue Gans, where there are more wursts on the menu and more elbows on the tables, and Café Sabarsky in the Neue Galerie museum, where people sit upright over cups of milchkaffee and slim wedges of Linzer torte.

Released in Germany in 2014, “Kings of Kallstadt”—which includes an interview conducted by the sensibly shod Wendel, Linzer torte in hand, with Donald Trump at his gleaming Trump Tower offices—was made before Trump’s Presidential bid.

Now, where’s that Linzer torte you promised me?

I would have accepted a cupcake in lieu of a Linzer torte.
