Chef Fany Gerson shares her recipe for Pan de Muerto ( Dead Man’s Bread), a bread made all over Mexico for the Day of the Dead celebrations that take place during the first days of November. The event has its roots in Aztec times where it was believed that the deceased embarked on a journey to their final resting place. From sculpted flowers, the Virgin Mary, skulls, or even animals, this bread has tons of varieties in both shape and flavors.
