Description

This traditional Mexican pan dulce, with its distinctive shape and unique orange-anise flavor, is commonly made as an offering during Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos), November 1-2. Aside from being eaten with gusto and deeply loved, Pan de Muerto often serves as an altar decoration to both honor and celebrate those who've died. Our thanks to Pati Jinich of PBS' Pati's Mexican Table for sharing this Day of the Dead bread recipe with us.Español »
