1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon anise seed
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 packages active dry yeast
1/2 cup softened corn margarine
1-3/4 cups hot tap water (120 Degrees F. - 130 Degrees F.)

1 cup chopped walnuts
1/3 cup finely diced candied orange peel

Mix together in a large bowl 2 cups flour, sugar, salt, anise seed, cinnamon, cardamon, cloves and undissolved yeast; add softened margarine.
Gradually add hot tap water to dry ingredients; beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.
Add 1 cup flour, or enough flour to make a thick batter; beat at high speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
Stir in enough additional flour to make a soft dough.
Turn dough out onto lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Place dough in a greased bowl, turning to grease the top; cover and let rise in a warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down; turn out onto lightly floured board.
Knead in mixed dried fruit, almonds, walnuts and candied orange peel.
Divide dough in half; form into round balls.
Place balls on greased baking sheets; cover and let rise in a warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
Bake in preheated 375 Degree F. oven 35 to 40 minuts, or until done.
Remove bread from baking sheets; place on wire racks to cool.
Brush bread with honey while warm.
