Cornbread Dressing Or Stuffing Recipes

CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet; add the onions and celery and saute until tender.
• Combine toasted bread and cornbread in a large bowl and mix.
• Add onions and celery plus their cooking liquid, the salt, pepper, sage, and poultry seasoning and mix throughly.
• Using a bulb baster, add just enough turkey giblet broth to make a very moist mixture, then stir in the eggs and scrape the dressing into a large greased baking pan or dish.
• Bake in 400 degree F oven until dressing is nicely browned, about 30-40 minutes.

CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Make the herb butter: Mix the butter with the sage, thyme, parsley, rosemary, tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
• Make the stuffing: Melt 1/2 cup of the herb butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and celery and saute, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degree F. Combine the cooked onions and celery with the cornbread, egg, chicken broth, milk and 3/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl; mix well. Place in a buttered 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes; remove the foil and bake until golden brown, about 20 more minutes.

CORNBREAD AND BACON STUFFING (DRESSING)B

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Saute the onions and celery in the bacon drippings, until soft but not browned.
• Let cool slightly.
• Toss the cornbread, bread, bacon, poultry seasoning, parsley, salt and pepper until mixed well.
• Add the cooked celery and onions and toss to mix well.
• Add the eggs and 1 cup of the chicken broth and stir to moisten, adding as much broth as needed.
• (Everytime is going to be different.) This is a personal taste decision.
• I like my dressing moist so I add broth until I have a very wet mixture.
• Any type pan will work for baking.
• I generally use a 8 x 8 disposable pan, but if I am making a double batch I use a 9 x 13 pan.
• Bake for 30 min, uncovered, or until golden on top.
• This is enough to stuff an 8 to 10 lb turkey, if you so desired.
• **NOTE**I have made this several times for vegetarian dinners, omitting the bacon, drippings and chicken broth and substituting with either butter, or olive oil and vegetable broth with great success.
• ALSO--If you save leftover pieces of cornbread/bread heels in a ziploc bag in your freezer, you will have half the work already done when your ready to make this.
• (Just a tip my grandma told me that works.).
