Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a lightly floured surface, roll the pastry into a 14 by 12-inch rectangle. Whisk together the egg and water in a small bowl. Brush the pastry with the egg wash. Cut the pastry in half, forming two 14 by 6-inch rectangles. Evenly sprinkle the cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and anise seeds over the top of one of the rectangles. Place the other rectangle, egg wash side down, on top of the cheese-topped rectangle. Gently roll the pastry with a rolling pin to make the layers adhere. Brush the top of the pastry with the egg wash and season with salt, if using. With a pastry wheel or sharp knife, cut the pastry into ¾-inch-wide strips.

Grease a baking sheet or line with parchment paper. Twist the strips and place 1 inch apart onto the baking sheet, pressing ends onto the sheet to keep the strips twisted. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the straws puff and are golden. Repeat with the remaining pastry. Serve the straws warm or at room temperature. Store the straws in an airtight container, where they will keep for 2 to 3 days.

In 1305, anise seed was taxed to help pay for repairs to London Bridge.
