Happy All Souls Day!
Halloween may be over but the Day of the Dead or All Souls Day celebrations are just getting started. November 2nd is the traditional day to break out the sugar skulls and celebrate the spirit of lost loved ones. This year, honor the spirits with a loaf of Pan de Muertos or "bread of the dead". This often overlooked traditional sweet bread is flavored with just a hint of anise and is decorated with strips of bread that represent bones. Check out the recipe here.
