The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book

Pulled Bread

Remove crusts from a long loaf of freshly baked water bread. Pull the bread apart until the pieces are the desired size and length, which is best accomplished by using two three-tined forks. Cook in a slow oven until delicately browned and thoroughly dried. A baker's French loaf may be used for pulled bread if home-made is not at hand.
