Call for Stuffing Recipes

[neadods]

Having hosed Christmas dinner two years in a row (long story), Mother decided that we were doing chicken instead of turkey and I decided to spend the next 12 months practicing.

I've learned stock and broth making forwards and backwards (I've got quite the library of them now, waiting in the fridge and freezer for instant soup). I've roasted good chickens both upright and spatchcocked (which is, IMO, better and faster).

Now I need to start learning stuffing, aka dressing in certain parts of the States. It's not that I don't know how, it's that with Dad's heart issues, the family standby (which includes sausage) has been ruled out as having too much salt.

So hit me with your stuffing/dressing recipes! Bread-based, cornbread-based, rice or fruit based - hit me with 'em all.

NOT - this is important - the nasty, soft, sweet northern cornbread, but actual southern cornbread

I'll get my father's recipe. He's always been in charge of cornbread making, as he comes from AK.

I've been kicking around the concept of a dried apple and pecan cornbread stuffing...

dried apple and pecan cornbread stuffing

Oooh, that sounds yummy. The Laurel Farmers' Market carries apple schnitz (PA Dutch dried apples), FYI. Pecans, however, have been scarce & pricey for most of this decade.

I know about the Laurel market -- it's my go-to place for apfel schnitz. Which are also lovely when studded in a pork roast.

The pecan part is going to be pricey, but necessary, I think. They go so nicely with apples...
