Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: A good quality sausage will make all the difference in your stuffing. Opt for a sausage with a high meat content and a flavorful blend of spices.
  • Use fresh leeks: Leeks add a subtle oniony flavor to the stuffing. Be sure to clean them thoroughly before using.
  • Plump the currants: Soaking the currants in hot water for a few minutes before adding them to the stuffing will help to plump them up and add a touch of sweetness.
  • Use a combination of bread cubes: Using a mixture of white and whole wheat bread cubes will give the stuffing a nice texture and flavor.
  • Season the stuffing well: Be sure to season the stuffing with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Don't overstuff the bird: Overstuffing the bird can make it difficult for the heat to circulate properly, resulting in undercooked stuffing.
  • Cook the stuffing until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F: This will ensure that the stuffing is cooked through and safe to eat.
