Ingredients: · 16 to 18 oz loaf of white bread · 1/2 cup vegetable oil · 4-6 large stalks celery, diced small · 2 tablespoons ground sage · 1 to 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock · 1 teaspoon salt · freshly ground pepper Instructions: Preheat the oven to 250°F. Spread the bread on a large baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until quite crisp but not dark, turning at 15 minutes. Let cool a bit and then break into a large pan or bowl into about 1 inch pieces. Heat the oil or butter in a heavy skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the onions, celery, and cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes or the vegetables are very soft. Stir in the sage, and cook for 2 more minutes. In a large bowl, fold together the toasted bread pieces with the cooked onions and celery. slowly add the chicken or vegetable stock until the stuffing mixture is moist but not soggy wet. Salt and pepper to taste. Stuff some into the turkey body or breast cavity before roasting if you wish. Or, spread in a lightly greased 3-quart baking dish and drizzle with an additional 2 tablespoons melted butter. At this point the dressing can be covered with foil and refrigerated overnight or up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, heat the oven to 375°F. Bake covered for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 15 more minutes or until top is lightly browned. If you are baking the dressing directly from the refrigerator, expect to add 10 extra minutes baking time. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. We  you Mom! | |
