TRADITIONAL SAUSAGE-MUSHROOM TURKEY STUFFING



Traditional Sausage-Mushroom Turkey Stuffing image

My mother-in-law was famous for her wonderful turkey stuffing, which my husband always looked forward to at holiday time. When my in-laws moved to California, he was bemoaning that he wouldn't have that stuffing anymore! I asked my mother-in-law how she made it, but she didn't have it written down, and told me "a handful of this" and a "handful of that". Needless to say, when I attempted to recreate it, it was a disaster. I started building a recipe from scratch, and ended up incorporating mushrooms, which I love. Ultimately, my husband ending up preferring my stuffing! As they say, necessity is the mother of invention!

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb bulk pork sausage
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sliced celery
2 cups chopped onions
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 (13 3/4 ounce) can chicken broth (and additional broth, if necessary)
2 lbs loaf firm-textured white bread, cut in 1/2-inch cubes (stale or toasted, do not use fresh)
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Pan fry sausage over medium-high heat until crumbled and cooked well. Set aside.
  • In large fry pan, melt butter. Add celery, onion, and mushrooms. Saute until soft. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Cook down until about 1/3 of the liquid remains.
  • In large bowl, toss bread cubes with poultry seasoning, thyme, salt, and pepper. Add sausage and drippings to bowl and stir. Add vegetables and broth mixture to bowl and stir. Add egg and mix until fully combined. Mixture should be moist and bind together easily. (If not, add more chicken broth.).
  • Stuff neck and body cavities of turkey, or spoon into a greased 2-quart casserole and cover with foil. Truss turkey and roast as usual or, if baking, add casserole to oven about 30 minutes end of turkey roasting time and let bake for 45 minutes. I have also successfully made stuffing balls with this recipe, rolling the stuffing mixture into balls (I got about 15 of them), placing them on a greased, foil-lined baking sheet and baking in a 350-degree oven for about 25 minutes. They were moist and delicious!

MUSHROOM AND SAUSAGE STUFFING



Mushroom and Sausage Stuffing image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Extra-virgin olive oil, for cooking
4 celery ribs, cut into 1/4-inch dice
4 onions, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Kosher salt
3 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
1 pound cremini or button mushrooms, stemmed and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 1/2 pounds sweet Italian sausage, casings removed and meat crumbled
2 cups dry white wine
Peasant bread, crusts removed, cut into 1-inch chunks (about 12 cups) and toasted
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
1 bunch fresh sage, finely chopped
3 to 4 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Coat a large wide pot with olive oil and toss in the celery and onions. Season with salt and cook the veggies over medium-high heat until soft and very aromatic, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into really small pieces with a metal spoon or spatula, until it's really brown and yummy, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Add the white wine and cook until it has evaporated by half. (The mix will be pretty soupy, and that's okay.)
  • Combine the bread with the sausage mixture in a large bowl. Toss in the walnuts and sage and pour about half the chicken stock into the bowl. Using your hands, work to combine everything well -- really get in there and squish it up; it's fun! Add the remaining stock as needed to create a really moist mix. Taste and season with salt, if needed.
  • Transfer the mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and cover with foil. Bake until the stuffing is hot all the way through, about 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake to brown the top, another 15 minutes.

MUSHROOM STUFFING



Mushroom Stuffing image

This traditional bread stuffing features assorted mushrooms -- choose any variety you like.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegetarian Recipes

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons butter, plus more for baking dish
2 large onions, cut into 3/4-inch dice
6 stalks celery, sliced crosswise 1/4 inch thick
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds assorted mushrooms, trimmed and halved or quartered (for uniform pieces)
2 loaves Italian bread (1 pound total), cut into 1-inch cubes (about 16 cups) and dried
1 can (14.5 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley
3 large eggs, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter an 8-inch square (or other shallow 2-quart) baking dish for extra stuffing.
  • Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add onions, celery, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, tossing often, until beginning to brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Add mushrooms. Cover; cook until they release liquid, 5 to 7 minutes. Uncover; cook, tossing occasionally, until tender and liquid has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes more. Transfer to a large bowl; let cool completely.
  • Add bread, broth, parsley, and 3/4 cup water to bowl; toss well. Season with salt and pepper; mix in eggs.
  • Prepare and stuff turkey. Transfer extra stuffing to prepared baking dish, and cover with buttered foil. Refrigerate until ready to cook.
  • During last 20 minutes of turkey roasting time, put covered dish in oven. Bake 25 minutes. Remove foil; bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add depth of flavor and texture to your stuffing. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the mushrooms, be sure to give them plenty of space so they can brown properly. Otherwise, they will steam and become soggy.
  • Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will add a lot of flavor to your stuffing. Some good options include sage, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Don't overstuff the bird. The stuffing should be loosely packed so that it has room to expand as it cooks. Otherwise, it will become dense and dry.
  • Cook the stuffing until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. This will ensure that it is safe to eat.

Conclusion:

Mushroom sausage stuffing is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is perfect for a holiday meal, but it can also be served as a side dish or main course anytime of year. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a mushroom sausage stuffing recipe that everyone will love.
