Panera Bread All Purpose Stuffing Recipe 355

PANERA BREAD ALL-PURPOSE STUFFING RECIPE - (3.5/5)

Steps:

• To make the bread cubes, start with 1/2 loaf of leftover bread. Remove the crusts and cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes until you have about 3 cups. Spread cubes out on a cutting board and allow them to dry, if possible overnight. The next day, place the bread cubes in a large bowl. Add onion, celery, thyme, sage, pepper and your favorite secret ingredient. Toss until they are well mixed. Add the melted butter, using the larger amount if you like your stuffing very moist, and toss gently. Stuff your 3 to 4 pound chicken or turkey and roast as directed. To prepare stuffing on its own, place it in a shallow baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. If the stuffing dries out, you may wish to add a little chicken broth as it cooks.

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.

ALL PURPOSE BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• NOTE: Chicken Soup Base is a concentrated paste purchased in the grocery store which is very rich in flavor.
• If you cannot find it in your store substitute with 3 chicken bouillion cubes and 2 Tablespoons of cooking oil which will give you a reasonable substitution.
• Combine all ingredients making sure that everything is blended.
• Avoid overmixing so that bread doesn't get too mushy.
• Stuff and Bake according to favorite method.
• I love using the popular baking bags since it is so easy and gives a wonderfully moist product at the end.
• NOTE** servings are approximate-- it easily serves 12-15 people with some left-overs.
• Time depends on method used-- I put down 3 1/2 hours since that is the average time if inside a 20 pound turkey in a baking bag.
