In reply to the discussion: What do put in your turkey stuffing/dressing? Pepperidge Farm cubes. celery and onion cubes and spices. What about you [View all]Kali
(56,174 posts)15. way back in the mid 70s
we spent the winter in Anchorage Alaska. My Mom made STUFFING from a recipe in the local paper. I don't like stuffing (soggy bread - retch!) but I make it for everybody else.
hot or sage bulk sausage, chopped celery, onion, bell pepper all sauteed in a little butter. a package or two of cornbread stuffing mix (or just homemade cornbread, couple eggs, some ground sage, salt pepper. hot water or broth to moisten. stuff or bake in a dish. it smells SO good and it would probably be great deep fried in patties but as soggy bread, I can't.
I have also made this with wild and regular rice instead of the cornbread and it is pretty good, but the crowd prefers soggy bread.
