Ingrediants:

3/4 cup Water
1/2 cup Honey
1/2 cup finely chopped Citron
1/2 cup Sugar
2 tablespoons Anise Seeds
2 1/3 cups Flour
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Nutmeg
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Allspice

Directions:

Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan.
Stir until the sugar completely dissolves and then remove from heat.
Sift together flour, baking soda, salt, and spices, and fold into the hot honey mixture.
Turn the batter into a well-greased 9 X 5 X 3-inch loaf pan and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for one hour.
Turn out on a wire rack to cool.

This recipe yields one loaf of bread, and improves in taste if allowed to stand for 24 hours.
