My Great Grandmothers Simple Bread Stuffing Recipes

EASY BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 220°c.
• Fry the onions and garlic in the butter until soft and translucent.
• Combine the breadcrumbs, herbs, lemon zest and Parmesan cheese in a large bowl and add the onions and garlic with all the butter.
• Stir in the milk until the stuffing is well moistened but not too wet.
• Season to taste and transfer to a greased loaf tin or cast iron skillet.
• Place the stuffing in the oven and allow to bake for 30-45 minutes until golden brown.

GRANDMA RUTH'S STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the mushrooms, celery, and onions until softened.
• Dampen the fresh bread cubes (not the stuffing mix), then squeeze out any excess water.
• In a large bowl, combine the mushroom mixture, bread cubes, stuffing mix, eggs, and 1 can chicken broth. Season with sage, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and mix well. The stuffing should have a rather paste-like consistency. Mix in additional chicken broth as necessary.
• Loosely pack stuffing inside turkey cavity before roasting.

GRANDMOM JACOBS' SAVORY STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to broil.
• Place the bread cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment and drizzle over the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toast for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown. Make sure to watch them so they don't burn. Remove the cubes and switch the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Saute until softened, about 8 minutes. Remove the vegetables to a large bowl.
• Add the toasted bread and saltines to the vegetables. Add the stock slowly, tossing gently, until the bread is moist but not too soggy; you may not use all of your stock. Place in a greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish and bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes until golden brown.

MOM'S OLD FASHION BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• In a large skillet cook celery and onion in melted butter over medium heat until tender, but do not let get brown. Remove from heat.
• Stir in seasoning and lemon pepper.
• Place bread cubes in a large bowl; add onion mixture and beaten egg.
• Drizzle with enough chicken broth to moisten; toss lightly to combine. Add a little milk for flavoring.
• Spoon stuffing into neck and body cavities of the turkey.
• If you have some leftover, place it in a buttered casserole dish. Bake covered for 30-45 minutes or until heated through. You will want to add more chicken broth so that it isn't so dry. When it cooks inside the turkey it gets very moist, but in a baking dish it gets dry.
• Recipe makes enough for a 15 pound bird.
