Pan De muerto / Dead Bread
El pan de muerto es un tipo especial de pan que se prepara en México.
No es un pan de consumo cotidiano (aunque se prepara desde julio),
puesto que está asociado íntimamente a la celebración de la festividad
conocida como Día de Muertos,
festividad que puede durar desde un día hasta una semana durante el mes
de noviembre, dependiendo de la región mexicana en cuestión. La
difusión del pan de muerto está especialmente concentrada en el centro y
sur de la República Mexicana, donde el Día de Muertos es celebrado con
mayor intensidad.
