    | 1. Dissolve the yeast in the water, then add 1 cup of flour. | 2. Stir to make a soft spongey texture, cover with a dishcloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30-40 minutes. | 3. Set aside 1/2 cup flour. | 4. Add the remaining 3 1/2 cups flour, salt, and sugar to the yeast mixture. | 5. In another bowl, mix the cooled butter, eggs, anise water, orange blossom water, and orange rind. | 6. Mix this butter mixture with the yeast-flour mixture, incorporating well. | 7. Pour the reserved 1/2 cup flour onto a clean board or sil-pat. Then pour the completed dough onto it. It will be very soft, so keep your hands floured and knead lightly. | 8. Place into a greased bowl and set in a warm place (like the oven turned off) for about 90 minutes to rise. | 9. Shape into a round loaf in a lightly greased and flour 9-inch pie pan. | 10. Bake at 350F for 30 minutes. | 11. Make the glaze with the icing sugar, vanilla, and just enough milk to make a glaze of frosting consistency. | 12. Glaze only the top of the bread when it has cooled. Sprinkle with pink sugar crystals, bone sprinkles, fondant sugar skulls, whatever tickles your fancy! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
