Pulled bread is simply the crumb of a one-day old loaf, pulled or cut apart into strips and carefully rebaked. Trim the crusts from the outside of the, entire loaf; begin at one end of the loaf, pull it into halves, using two forks, then pull each half into quarters and eighths. Put these in a baking pan lined with brown paper, stand the pan in the warm oven, with the door open, until the bread is dry, then close the door and toast it to a golden brown.
