CORNBREAD-BROWN BUTTER STUFFING



Cornbread-Brown Butter Stuffing image

For many people, Thanksgiving is one big excuse to eat lots of stuffing. This one is particularly easy to make. Prepare cornbread using any recipe you'd like, then let it sit out until it gets a little stale. Crumble it into large pieces and then sauté with aromatics in deeply browned butter. Be sure to really let the butter brown: that's where much of the flavor is. Drizzle any remaining brown butter over the top of the stuffing once you've transferred it to the baking dish - that will make the top nice and crispy.

Complete the Thanksgiving feast with this classic Cornbread Dressing recipe from Food Network.

Provided by Claire Robinson

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 tablespoons butter, divided
1 large Vidalia or Spanish onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3/4 cup water
6 cups cubed (1-inch pieces) store-bought or homemade cornbread, about 1 pound
1/3 cup fresh sage leaves, about 12, stems removed
2 large eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter; add the onions and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring often, until light golden, about 6 to 8 minutes and remove from the pan to a small plate. Raise the heat to medium-high and add the water, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet and allowing the water to simmer just a couple of minutes to infuse in the onion flavor. Remove from the heat.
  • Put the cornbread in a large mixing bowl. Melt the remaining 6 tablespoons butter in a small pan over medium heat and let it bubble until the milk solids to start to turn golden. Add the sage leaves and briefly fry until beginning to crisp, about 30 seconds. With a slotted spoon, remove sage and put on top of cornbread to drain and crisp. Remove the butter from the heat. Add the eggs and cooked onions to the cornbread and pour the browned butter over the mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the onion infused water, a tablespoon at a time, gently folding, until cornbread is evenly moistened but not soggy. Pour the dressing into a 9 by 11-inch baking dish and bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown in color and the dressing is set in the middle, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cornbread: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh cornbread that is not more than 2 days old.
  • Brown the butter: Browning the butter adds a nutty, rich flavor to the stuffing. Be sure to watch it closely so that it doesn't burn.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for celery, onion, and carrots, but you can also add other vegetables such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini.
  • Don't overstuff the bird: Stuffing expands as it cooks, so don't pack it too tightly into the bird. Leave some room for the stuffing to expand.
  • Cook the stuffing until it is heated through: The internal temperature of the stuffing should reach 165°F before serving.

Conclusion:

Cornbread brown butter stuffing is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any other special occasion. With its moist, flavorful texture and rich, savory flavor, this stuffing is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So, what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
