Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F with a rack in the middle of the oven. Grease and flour or line with parchment paper two 8 1/2- by 4 1/2-inch loaf pans.
- In the bowl of a mixer, combine the brown sugar, salt, eggs, oil, honey, cinnamon, cloves and allspice and mix, using the flat (paddle) beater at low-medium speed until well blended, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the water and baking soda and continue mixing until blended.
- Add the flour 1 cup at a time, letting each addition blend before adding the next. Continue beating for about 10 minutes. The batter will be loose, stringy and very, very sticky.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans, top with nuts and/or fruit, if desired.
- Bake 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until done.
- Remove to a rack and let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before turning the cakes out of the pans.
