Puffy Bowl Makes 1
Simple to make but so many uses. It works great as a centerpiece filled with one of our chicken or shrimp salads. I like to add Italian seasoning to melted butter and drizzle that on the bread right when it comes out of the oven; it makes a great pull-apart bread.

Recipes are like stories; they can change from person to person. Everyone has their idea of how a recipe should be, even
though it may have changed from the original. We will never know the true author of the original recipe, regardless of
what some may say. That's why I go back and look through the oldest cookbooks that I can find. Sometimes it's not the
recipe in the books that I find, but the tiny pieces of handwritten recipes and newspaper articles that are stuck within
the pages. That's where the real story is, finding those simple Southern recipes. -Mac
