MOM'S SAGE DRESSING
Provided by Laura
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Slice loaves of bread into small cubes. Place in a large pot or on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle with sage and toss bread. You want each piece of bread to get a little sprinkling of sage. Repeat this as necessary. I'd guess I use at least 2 tsp, maybe even a tablespoon.
- Place diced celery in a pan with just enough water to cover and steam until tender. Add celery along with the water to the bread and toss.
- Then saute onion in the butter until translucent. Toss in with bread. At this point, feel the bread. You want it to just be slightly moist and sticky. If needed add more water to get bread to that consistency.
- Place bread mixture in a pocket made of foil (wrapped tight), or they have those foil packs you can buy now. It is best to cook it in foil. However, you can also use a large roasting bag placed on a cookie sheet too to cook it in. Don't cook in a casserole dish, the dressing won't all remain moist, you'll get some that is crunchy. I learned that his time! Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. (I've done it at 325 along with the turkey for 40 minutes) This can be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge.
