GRANDMOM JACOBS' SAVORY STUFFING



Grandmom Jacobs' Savory Stuffing image

My grandmom's secret ingredient to her stuffing was stale Italian bread to soak up the stock, and Trisha's grandmother used saltines for a nice crunch. On the show, we cooked up a combination of both of our family traditions!

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 loaves day-old Italian bread (24 ounces), cut into 1-inch cubes (about 10 cups)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, plus more to grease your baking dish
3 medium carrots, preferably rainbow, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
3 stalks celery, diced
1 large sweet onion, diced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
2 cups lightly crumbled saltine crackers (1 sleeve or about 40 crackers)
About 4 cups vegetable stock, chicken stock or turkey pan juices

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to broil.
  • Place the bread cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment and drizzle over the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toast for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown. Make sure to watch them so they don't burn. Remove the cubes and switch the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Saute until softened, about 8 minutes. Remove the vegetables to a large bowl.
  • Add the toasted bread and saltines to the vegetables. Add the stock slowly, tossing gently, until the bread is moist but not too soggy; you may not use all of your stock. Place in a greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish and bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes until golden brown.

SAVORY STUFFING

This is my father-in-law's stuffing recipe and it's always a hit around my house. I get begged to make it even when it isn't Thanksgiving! The best part is, without the oysters, it's completely vegetarian. I usually make 3 recipes: 2 for inside the turkey and one in a pan in the oven.

Provided by Karen..

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 40m

Yield 36 balls

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 box seasoned stuffing mix, prepared as directed (Stove Top, etc.)
1 box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and completely drained of all liquid
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese or 2 tablespoons romano cheese
Dijon mustard or honey mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • Form 1 inch balls out of mixture.
  • Place on ungreased baking sheet and bake for 20- 30 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Serve on toothpicks with mustard for dipping.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for high-quality bread, sausage, vegetables, and herbs.
  • Don't overstuff the stuffing: The stuffing should be light and fluffy, not dense and heavy. Stuff the turkey or chicken loosely so that it has room to expand as it cooks.
  • Bake the stuffing at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the stuffing and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Let the stuffing rest before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the stuffing to set. Cover the stuffing with foil and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Savory Dijon stuffing is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. Whether you're making it for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or just a weeknight dinner, this stuffing is sure to be a hit.
