My Moms Best Pa Dutch Stuffing Recipes

PENNSYLVANIA STUFFING

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes until they're tender, then make mashed potatoes with them. (I just add milk and butter till they look right, I don't measure -- so feel free to make the mashed potatoes however you want, but make them a little bit wetter than you normally would, since they're going to be baked.).
• While the potatoes are cooking, melt one cup of butter in a large skillet over medium high heat and saute the celery and onions until soft. (I know, it's not healthy. But it's delicious.).
• Add most of the bag of stuffing mix to the butter, celery and onions and stir it in (Again, just estimate. I think I leave about a cup and a half of stuffing mix in the bag and use the rest). Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes.
• Stir the onion, celery and stuffing mixture into the mashed potatoes.
• Mix in 1 tablespoon dried parsley, 2 eggs, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour into a LARGE greased casserole dish. (I use the stoneware from my crock pot.).
• Cover and bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 30-60 minutes, or until lightly browned on top.

Steps:

Stir in milk; pour into the potato mixture and mix well. Add more milk if filling seams dry. , Just before baking, stuff the turkey. Skewer openings; tie drumsticks together. Place on a rack in a roasting pan. , Bake at 325° for 4-1/2 to 5 hours or until a thermometer reads 180° for the turkey and 165° for the stuffing. When turkey begins to brown, cover lightly with a tent of aluminum foil and baste if needed. Remove all stuffing.
