Bavarian Stuffing Recipes

OLD FASHIONED STUFFING

Steps:

• Allow the toasted bread to sit approximately 24 hours, until hard.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Crush the bread into crumbs with a rolling pin. Place the crumbs in a large bowl.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion and celery and slowly cook until soft. Remove from heat and drain.
• Mix the eggs and chicken broth into the bread crumbs. The mixture should be moist, but not mushy. Use water, if necessary, to attain desired consistency. Mix in the onion, celery, rubbed sage, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Press the mixture into the baking dish. Bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until the top is brown and crisp.

GERMAN BEEF ROULADEN

Steps:

• Spread 1/2 tablespoon mustard over one side of each piece of meat. Sprinkle the onion, paprika, salt, and pepper evenly over the steaks. Lay one slice of bacon on each piece. Roll the steaks jelly-roll style and secure with toothpicks.
• Heat the canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook meat on all sides until browned. Add the beef broth and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low; cover and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the meat rolls. Strain the broth mixture and return liquid to the skillet. Whisk together the cornstarch and 1 cup of water. Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the skillet, stirring continually until the sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the sour cream. Return rolls to the sauce; serve immediately.

MARGIE'S GERMAN MEAT DRESSING

Steps:

• This is a family recipe that my mother learned from her Swiss/German mother in Milwaukee. Everyone who eats it never wants that boring old bread stuffing again. It contains smoked oysters from those cute little flat tins, pork sausage, ground beef, mushrooms, celery, onion, apples, raisins, pecans and some seasoned breadcrumbs, garlic salt and pepper to taste. It's Sauteed together till cooked and mixed. Then you let it cool and stuff it into the bird so it absorbs all the wonderful turkey juice. It comes out very moist and delicious.
• In a little saute pan you take a few (4-5) smoked oysters and brown in butter, then mash up really well with a fork.
• In a large dutch oven, brown 1/3 sausage to 2/3 parts ground beef (probably 2 1/2-3lb burger and a roll of sausage).
• Add 2 cups each onion, celery, mushrooms and stir well.
• Season meat with garlic salt and pepper to taste.
• Toss in the mashed oysters, 1 or 2 large apples, cored and diced (you can leave on the peel), and a healthy handful of raisins and a cup of chopped pecans.
• When this is all thoroughly cooked and well mixed, put in about 1 cup of seasoned bread crumbs and stir well. The crumbs should absorb most of the juice. If not, you can add a bit more until it all sticks together nicely.
• Nibble a spoonful or two to judge taste and season if needed. (We always knew it was perfect when my father wouldn't put his spoon down after sampling, until mother took it away from him and chased him outta the kitchen.)
• Set aside to cool. (Outside is great if it's cold enough, with a lid on to keep out varmits lurking on the back porch.) After it has cooled enough to handle, stuff into both cavities of the bird, the inside front first. Really pack it in. I use my hands for this. Put the balance into the neck cavity, pulling the skin to cover and fasten the skin securely.
• If you can't get it all in the bird, put in a little pie pan, cover with foil and let cook in the oven. Add to what comes out of the bird after cooking. Butter the bird and season with salt and pepper. We cook ours in a cooking bag so we don't loose any juice (follow the directions for cooking bag). After the bird is cooked and browned, let it rest appropriate amount of time. Spoon out dressing into serving dish. Garnish with a bit or two of fresh parsley. Wonderful with gravy over the top. Makes excellent leftovers if it isn't all eaten up at dinner. It's also great cold when raiding the fridge in middle of night.

BOBBIFIED AUSTRIAN COUNTRY STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Coarsely dice the onions and celery so there is the same amount of each. Saute the vegetables in the oil in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, to release the juices, about 10 minutes. Add the sweet and hot paprikas and parsley flakes and continue stirring another 10 minutes. Remove from the pan into large bowl.
• Cut the bread into 1/4-inch cubes. Slowly mix the bread into the onion and celery mixture, until all the juices are soaked up.
• Beat the eggs with the milk in a small bowl. Mix into the stuffing.
• Chop the poblanos into a fine dice. Mix the poblanos, sage and thyme into the stuffing. Place the stuffing in a large baking dish. Add the chicken stock and combine. Cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes.
