Note

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in a warm oven before serving.

If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the anise seed to 1 tablespoon or omit it entirely for plain sweet rolls.

Ensure the water is warm (around 110ðF) but not hot, as very hot water can kill the yeast.
