Why liebkuchen my friend, times change! There are new rules now! These days you don't roast anymore, you pan roast, not in a baking pan, but a pan, you know... a pan?!?
Pan searing is also popular, but only if crusted with an exotic nut, or a nut made to sound exotic such as Mambolino county new crop Macadamia. Keep in mind that you cannot use clarified butter, it must be plugra, and if you choose to forgo butter, use an xtra virgin olive oil at least 8 years old, made from olives handpicked off old vines of course!
Hrm, time for another top ten
