I've never been able to find a matzo stuffing my family enjoyed so I decided to omit the Ritz crackers and cornbread from my Thanksgiving stuffing, Recipe #78109, and replace them with matzo. The result was delicious and tastes exactly like the original recipe.

Tips:

Use high-quality matzo: Look for matzo that is fresh and has a light, golden color. Avoid matzo that is stale or has a dark color.
Soak the matzo in broth: This will help to soften the matzo and make it more flavorful. You can use chicken broth, beef broth, or vegetable broth.
Add vegetables to the stuffing: Vegetables such as celery, carrots, onions, and mushrooms are classic additions to matzo stuffing. You can also add other vegetables that you like, such asSpinach, kale, or zucchini.
Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs such as parsley, sage, and thyme will add flavor and aroma to the stuffing. You can also use dried herbs, but fresh herbs are always best.
Season the stuffing well: Be sure to season the stuffing with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or white wine for extra flavor.
Don't overstuff the turkey: The stuffing will expand as it cooks, so don't overstuff the turkey. Otherwise, the stuffing will be dry and dense.

Conclusion:

Matzo stuffing is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a popular side dish for Thanksgiving and other holiday meals but can be enjoyed anytime. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, matzo stuffing is a great option for busy cooks who want to create a tasty and satisfying meal.
