Best 7 Dilled Pumpernickel Rye Stuffing Recipes

RYE PUMPERNICKEL STUFFING

Steps:

• Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spread bread cubes in 2 large shallow baking pans and bake, stirring occasionally and switching position of pans halfway through baking, until dry, 20 to 25 minutes total. Transfer bread to a large bowl. 3While bread is drying in oven, cook onions in 1/2 stick butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 20 minutes, then add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Add onion mixture to bread, reserving skillet. Add turnips, broth, and 2 tablespoons butter to skillet, then simmer, covered, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 450°F and butter a 13- by 9-inch baking dish (3-quart capacity).
• Add turnip mixture, parsley, salt, and pepper to bread and toss until combined well. Spoon stuffing into baking dish. Cut remaining 2 tablespoons butter into bits and dot over top of stuffing. Bake stuffing, covered tightly with a sheet of buttered foil (buttered side down), in upper third of oven until heated through, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake stuffing until top is lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes more.

TO-DIE-FOR THANKSGIVING STUFFING

Steps:

• Saute onions, garlic, and rosemary in 4 tablespoons of the reserved bacon fat until golden and soft.
• In a huge bowl (or the nearest thing you've got--I use the turkey roaster), combine bread cubes, eggs, and remaining bacon fat. Then add onion/garlic mixture, the thyme, and pecans.
• Combine the bourbon and chicken stock; starting with 1 quart, add enough stock to produce the consistency YOU recognize as "stuffing."
• When combined, stuff bird or place in separate large baking dish(es).
• Bake at 350 for at least 45 minutes--longer if you prefer a dark crust on your stuffing.
• Serves 12 or more as part of a Thanksgiving feast.

DILLED PUMPERNICKEL-RYE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F.
• Cut enough of both breads into 1-inch cubes to measure 6 cups each. Spread bread cubes in 2 large shallow baking pans and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, stirring occasionally and switching position of pans halfway through baking, until bread is dry, 50 minutes to 1 hour total. Cool.
• Increase oven temperature to 400°F.
• Meanwhile, cook carrots, celery, and onions in oil and butter in a 5-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and beginning to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms begin to give off liquid, about 10 minutes.
• Remove pot from heat and stir in bread, dill, parsley, caraway, and salt and pepper to taste. Add broth and toss until bread is evenly moistened. (Use 3 cups broth if you like a moist stuffing, 2 1/2 cups if you prefer it drier.)
• Mound stuffing in a buttered 4-quart shallow baking dish. Cover with buttered foil and bake in middle of oven 30 minutes, then uncover and bake until top is crisp and stuffing is heated through, about 15 minutes more.

PUMPERNICKEL/RYE BREAD STUFFING WITH APPLE, WALNUTS, AND RAISINS

Steps:

• In a big skillet, melt butter over medium heat; add in the onion; cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 minutes.
• Add in apples and celery; cook/stir until the onions are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in walnuts and raisins.
• Transfer the onion-apple mixture to a bowl; add in pumpernickel and rye bread cubes; toss, sprinkling with apple cider.
• Gradually stir in about ½ cup broth, until stuffing is evenly moistened but not soggy.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Transfer to a lightly buttered casserole dish, sprinkle with ½ cup broth, cover, and bake in a preheated 350° oven for 30 minutes (uncover the last 15 minutes if you want a crusty-topped stuffing).

BAKERY STYLE PUMPERNICKEL ROLLS

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix together flours, yeast, cocoa and salt. In small bowl, mix together 1 1/3 cups water and molasses. Add water mixture to flour mixture; stir with wooden spoon until dough is thoroughly mixed and no dry spots remain, about 1 to 2 minutes. Cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise at room temperature 2 hours; refrigerate at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours.
• Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper; sprinkle with cornmeal. On generously floured surface, turn dough to lightly coat with flour. Form dough into a ball; cut in half. Cut each half into 6 equal pieces, coating with flour as needed to prevent sticking. Shape each piece into ball by stretching surface of dough around to bottom on all sides; pinch bottom to seal. Place on cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.
• Loosely cover rolls with plastic wrap sprayed with cooking spray; let rise in warm place 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
• Place empty broiler tray or cast iron skillet on bottom rack of oven. Heat oven to 400°F.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat egg and 1 tablespoon water. Brush buns with egg mixture; sprinkle with caraway seed. Place cookie sheet in oven. Gently pull out bottom rack of oven and pour 1 cup hot water into broiler tray; gently slide rack back and quickly shut oven door.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until buns begin to slightly brown and sound hollow when tapped. Cool 5 minutes on cooling rack. Serve warm or cool.
