Time 30m

Yield Five cups, enough for 10 pounds of poultry

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup whole buckwheat groats
1 egg, beaten
2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup chopped onion
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons minced scallions
1 clove garlic, minced
4 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 teaspoon minced thyme
3 cups finely crumbled stale bread
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the groats in a small, heavy saucepan. Stir in the egg to coat the grains. Cook over medium high heat, stirring, until the groats are dry and separate. Don't worry if some of the egg has coated the pan. Add 1 1/2 cups of stock, bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the groats are just tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat. (This proportion of liquid to grain is smaller than recommended on the package. The results are crunchy and separate, but additional moisture is picked up in the process of cooking the stuffing in the poultry and the grains will soften.)
  • Heat butter and oil in a large skillet. Add the onion, saute until just beginning to soften, then add the mushrooms. Saute over medium high heat until the mushrooms are beginning to brown. Add the scallions, garlic, parsley and thyme.
  • Stir in the cooked kasha and the bread. Moisten with the remaining one-half cup of stock. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Overall, I thought this stuffing was just okay. I wouldn't make it again.

This stuffing was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would use less soy sauce next time.

I found this stuffing to be a bit bland. I think I would add more herbs and spices next time.

This stuffing was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more broth or butter next time.

This stuffing is a keeper! I've made it several times now, and it's always a hit. I love the combination of mushrooms, kasha, and spices. It's the perfect stuffing for a holiday meal.

This stuffing is easy to make and very tasty. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth, and it turned out great. I also added a few chopped carrots and celery, which added some extra crunch.

This stuffing is delicious! I used a mix of wild and cremini mushrooms, and the flavor was amazing. I also added a bit of chopped bacon, which gave it an extra smoky flavor. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this stuffing for a potluck and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it, and I even got a few requests for the recipe. It's a great dish to bring to a party because it's easy to make and can be served hot or cold.

This mushroom and kasha stuffing was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! I loved the combination of flavors and textures, and it was the perfect addition to our turkey. I will definitely be making this again next year.
