In a small saucepan, heat water, honey, rosewater and salt. Bring this mix to a rolling boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook until mixture reduces down to half and is thick shiny and syrupy. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine sugar, cardamom and cinnamon with a pinch of salt and set aside.
In the bowl of a food processor combine walnuts and pistachios. Pulse until coarsely chopped. Add lemon zest vanilla and salt and pulse until nuts are finely ground. Set aside.
Roll dough out on a floured surface to approximately 20 by 12 inches. Brush with your melted butter and sprinkle with spiced sugar mixture. Press nut mixture across the dough evenly. Cut your dough into 6 strips lengthwise and stack each strip on top of each other. Cut into 4 even squares and stack standing up in loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let dough rise for approximately 45 min or until it fills out the pan.
The bread needs to stand in the pan for a little while so all the layers will stay together when you remove it from the pan.
