Old Fashioned Bread Stuffing Recipe 465

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until; saute onion and celery in hot butter until onion is soft, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Put bread cubes in a large bowl. Season bread with salt, sage, thyme, poultry seasoning, and black pepper. Add onion mixture to bread cubes; stir. Pour bread mixture into a large casserole dish and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and hot, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• 1. Toast your bread, then slice it into bite sized cubes and put in a large mixing bowl.
• 2. Add the seasonings to cubed bread and toss lightly.
• 3. Add butter to a large saute pan, add onions and celery, and cook until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add to the bread mixture, and mix well.
• 4. If baking right away, add egg to bread mixture, then put all of the stuffing into a 3 qt. baking dish, and cook for 1 hour, covered, until hot. (If you like crispy stuffing, remove cover for the last 15 minutes of cooking. NOTE: If baking the stuffing set your oven at 350 degrees.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large skillet cook celery, onion, and carrot in hot butter over medium heat for 7 to 10 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in parsley (if desired), poultry seasoning, and pepper. In a very large bowl combine celery and onion mixture with bread cubes. Drizzle with enough broth to moisten, tossing lightly to combine. Place stuffing in a 2-quart casserole. Bake, covered, for 30 to 45 minutes or until heated through. *TIP: To make dry bread cubes, preheat oven to 300°F. Cut 12 to 14 slices white bread into 1/2-inch cubes to yield 8 cups. Spread into two 15x10x1-inch baking pans; bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until dry, stirring twice; cool. (Cubes will continue to dry and crisp as they cool.) Or let bread cubes stand, loosely covered, at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours. Slow Cooker Directions: Prepare as directed, doubling the amounts of all ingredients, except use 1-1/3 cups chicken broth. Omit the 2-quart casserole and lightly coat a 3-1/2- or 4-quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon stuffing into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 3-1/2 to 4 hours. (Stuffing gets very moist as it cooks.) Make-Ahead Directions: Prepare as directed through Step 2, except do not preheat oven. Cover casserole tightly with plastic wrap; chill for up to 24 hours. To serve, preheat oven to 350°F. Remove plastic wrap. If desired, drizzle stuffing with an additional 1/4 cup chicken broth to moisten. Bake, covered, for 40 to 45 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of stuffing registers 165°F.

Steps:

• Moisten all the bread with as much water as is needed to make moist. Add the onion, seasoning, and salt and pepper. Mix with hands.
• Place in turkey or in foil and wrap up (which I do) and cook for at least 1 hour, longer if you are cooking it in the turkey. May open the foil for last 15 minutes to make top crusty.

Steps:

• Place bread cubes in a large bowl and set to the side.
• Preheat oven to 375.
• In a saucepan saute celery and onion in butter till soft.
• Remove from heat and add salt, pepper & poultry seasoning.
• Add the onion mixture to the bread cubes and combine. Drizzle with broth to lightly moisten then toss lightly.
• Bake covered for approximately 30 minutes.
• This can be prepared a day in advance. Let stuffing come to room temp before baking and add additional broth to moisten.
