Stuffing or Dressing???
Comments (20)Stuffing Recipe (Dressing Recipe, technically) 1 1/2 pounds bulk Italian sausage 2 tablespoons olive oil 6 ounces pancetta bacon, diced 2 onions, chopped 7 large stalks celery, chopped 4 cloves garlic, minced 6 cups day-old French bread, cut into 1/2 inch cubes 3 cups crumbled cornbread 1 1/2 tablespoons rubbed dried sage 1 1/2 tablespoons poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup toasted pine nuts 4 cups chicken broth 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup butter 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage 1 ounce shaved Parmesan cheese Directions Preheat an oven to 375 degrees. Grease a deep 9x13 inch baking dish or roasting pan. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and stir in the sausage. Cook and stir until the sausage is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Place the browned sausage into a large mixing bowl. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and pancetta in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the pancetta begins to brown, stir in the onions and celery, and cook until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic, and cook another 3 minutes until the aroma of the garlic mellows. Scrape the onion mixture into the bowl with the crumbled sausage. Add the French bread, cornbread, dried sage, poultry seasoning, salt, and pine nuts; stir well. Pour in the chicken broth and mozzarella cheese; stir until the chicken stock has been absorbed by the bread and the stuffing is evenly mixed. Pack the stuffing into the prepared baking dish, and dot the butter overtop. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, then remove the foil, and continue baking until the top has turned golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Sprinkle with the fresh sage and shaved Parmesan cheese to serve. *** Not so great for vegetarians but it is yummy for everyone else....See MoreCan gluey "stuffing/dressing" be salvaged?
Comments (11)I think it needs to be crumbled up or chopped finely to break up the gluey consistency. You must change its form, then dry it out - or I would mix it into meatloaf, meatballs, or add more cornbread or dried cubed bread, mix all with just a little broth to moisten and gently pile it into a casserole dish - DO NOT PACK IT DOWN! - that's what made it gluey in the first place, then bake again. Turkey Stuffing Bake ~leftover stuffing/dressing- put on the bottom of a greased casserole ~chopped turkey meat or chicken- mix into gravy, bechamel sauce, or cream of chicken soup and pour over stuffing in casserole - add some grated Swiss cheese if desired ~top with more crumbled stuffing ~ bake at 375 for 30 to 40 minutes Teresa...See MoreStuffing?

Comments (22)Caboodle, I feel your pain. That dressing sounds awful. I am in search of a good recipe for the cornbread. I found this one and would like opinions. I have a cornbread recipe I like made with yogurt but it is more cake-like than perhaps it should be for stuffing. Southern Buttermilk Cornbread http://andreasrecipes.com/ I grew up on my mother's and grandmother's Southern cornbread, and I'm devoted to it. Southern cornbread has no sugar and is cooked in a cast iron skillet, which renders a lovely crunchy crust. You can eat it by itself with butter or apple butter, or you can eat it with beans or chili and spoon either on top of a slice. This is another recipe that I've played around with. Many cornbread recipes call for 1 cup cornmeal and 1 cup all-purpose flour. However, all that extra flour seems to detract from the corn flavor in my opinion. So I split the difference and I like the results. Equipment mixing bowl 9 or 10-inch cast iron skillet Ingredients 1-1/2 cup cornmeal 1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour 1-1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 egg, beaten 1-1/4 cups buttermilk 4 tablespoons vegetable oil (or bacon drippings if you happen to have any) Preparation 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 2. Stir together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in mixing bowl. Add the beaten eggs and the buttermilk, stirring just until all the dry ingredients are wet. Do not overmix. 3. Add vegetable oil to the cast iron skillet and place in the hot oven for 3 to 4 minutes. You want the skillet hot, but you don't want the oil to start smoking. 4. Remove hot pan from oven. Make sure that the pan is thoroughly coated with the oil, bottom and sides, then pour the excess oil into the batter and stir. Pour batter into the hot pan. 5. Bake for 25 minutes or until lightly browned....See Moremake ahead stuffing/dressing?
Comments (19)Liz, this is the recipe that I use for the slow-cooker. I posted it back in 2011 I made Slow-Cooker Dressing last year for Christmas, and again this year for our Canadian Thanksgiving. It's the "only" way I'll make it from now on. I always add cooked rice to my stuffing/dressing, as well. Slow-Cooker Stuffing/Dressing 1 cup butter or margarine 2 cups chopped onion 2 cups chopped celery 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley 12 cups dry bread cubes 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning 1 1/2 teaspoons dried sage 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram 1 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper 4 1/2 cups chicken broth, or as needed 2 eggs, beaten Melt butter or margarine in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion, celery, and parsley in butter, stirring frequently. Spoon cooked vegetables over bread cubes in a very large mixing bowl. Season with poultry seasoning, sage, thyme, marjoram, and salt and pepper. Pour in enough broth to moisten, and mix in eggs. Spray slow-cooker with non-stick spray and transfer mixture to slow cooker. Cook on High for 45 minutes, then reduce heat to Low, and cook for 4 to 6 hours....See More
