Sourdough Stuffing With Apples And Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
• Cut or tear the bread into 1-inch cubes and spread it evenly on 2 baking sheets. Toast the bread in the oven until completely dry and beginning to crisp and brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and a few pinches of salt and saute, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add celery, onion, 2 tablespoons butter, and thyme. Once the butter has melted, cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Add sage and remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Add chicken broth to skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl. Pour the chicken broth mixture over the bread cubes and toss to combine until the bread cubes absorb the liquid. Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, and sprinkle with parsley. Bake in the center of the oven until heated through and the top is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove the stuffing from the oven and allow to cool about 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Butter a 2 1/2- to 3-quart baking dish. Spread bread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring once halfway through, until completely dry and turning golden in places, 45 to 55 minutes. Transfer to a large heatproof bowl.
• Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees. Spread hazelnuts on a rimmed baking sheet; toast 12 to 15 minutes. Remove; when cool enough to handle, coarsely chop. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, celery, squash, apples, and 2 teaspoons salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables and fruit are crisp-tender but have not developed color, about 10 minutes. Add wine; cook until mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes. Transfer mixture to bowl with bread. Stir in chopped parsley and stock to combine. Stir in eggs until bread mixture is evenly coated, then transfer to prepared dish. Top with buttered parchment; loosely cover with foil.
• Bake 20 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until golden and crisp on top, 20 to 25 minutes more. Sprinkle with hazelnuts and parsley leaves; serve.

Steps:

• 1. Spread bread cubes out on a rimmed baking sheet (or two, if necessary) and toast in a 350 degree oven until dried out and slightly crisp (10-15 minutes). Set aside.
• 2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft but not browned, about 7 minutes. Add apples and leeks and cook for a few minutes longer until apples are crisp tender. Add sage, thyme, and poultry seasoning, stir and cook for half a minute longer, then remove from heat.
• 3. Transfer onion/apple mixture to a very large bowl, add chopped bacon and bread cubes, and toss well. Add two cups of chicken stock, toss well, then add more stock, a little at a time until the stuffing is well-moistened, but not soggy. Taste, and add a bit of salt if desired.
• 4. Pour stuffing into greased casserole dishes (mine fit into one 9×12-inch dish, but you can divide it if necessary). Cover with foil and bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 20 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook bread cubes in large roasting pan until crisp, about 20 minutes. Transfer to very large bowl.
• Butter 3-quart baking dish. Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add bacon; sauté until golden, about 8 minutes. Add onions and celery; sauté until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add apples; sauté 2 minutes. Add mixture to bread. Add nuts and herbs. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead; chill.)

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tear the bread into chunks, tip into a roasting tin and toss in the oil. Roast for 10-15 mins until crisp. Pour over the stock, then leave to cool.
• Heat the butter and a drop of oil in a pan. Cook the leeks and onions over a low-medium heat for 15 mins until soft and starting to caramelise. Stir in the fennel seeds. Leave to cool.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Squeeze the sausage meat from the skins into a bowl. Add the apples, herbs, egg, leek and onion mix, and a grinding of black pepper. Combine everything well with your hands. Mix in the bread and press into a roasting tin. Drizzle the sage leaves with oil and press onto the stuffing. Bake for 30 mins until golden.
