Since Thanksgiving is coming for those of us in the U.S., I was wondering how many of you stuff your turkey before cooking. I'm in charge of the bird this year, so I'm curious to see what you all think is the best method.
That sounds a lot like my mom's, but she also adds a grated carrot or two to hers, and swears that's the secret. Oops, I guess not a secret anymore!!Originally posted by Momofmany
I use a bread stuffing and make it from scratch: bread, onion/celery/mushrooms sauted in butter, seasonings, fresh sage, eggs, chicken broth. I plant fresh sage each year just to use it in the turkey.
That's what I heard, too. But I have seen birds stuffed at the grocery store DAYS before Thanksgiving, and I would never eat one of those.Originally posted by annabelle33
And as long as you stuff the turkey immediately before putting it in the oven and cook it through thoroughly it's not dangerous.
You can add it in if you like - I only had it the one time, but it was really good.Originally posted by Momofmany
I have the power over the cookbook right now - I can add this if you wish.
