Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound sliced firm white sandwich bread, cut into 3/4-inch cubes (about 10 cups)
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
1 pound shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, caps cut into 1/4-inch slices
3 large celery stalks with leaves, chopped
3 medium leeks (white and pale green parts only), chopped (about 3 cups)
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon crumbled dried sage leaves
2 8-ounce jars shucked oysters, drained, 1/2 cup juices reserved, oysters cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 cup Turkey Stock or canned low-salt chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Place bread on baking sheet. Bake until beginning to dry, about 12 minutes. Cool completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover bread and store at room temperature.)
  • Butter 11x7x2-inch baking dish. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in large pot over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and sauté until mushroom liquid evaporates and mushrooms are beginning to brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer to large bowl. In same pot, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add celery and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add leeks; cook until vegetables are tender, about 4 minutes longer. Add sautéed vegetables, parsley and dried herbs to mushrooms; toss. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add bread cubes and oysters to vegetables in bowl; stir to combine. Mix in reserved 1/2 cup oyster juices and Turkey Stock. Season with salt and pepper. Use 9 cups stuffing for turkey. Transfer remaining stuffing to prepared baking dish; cover with foil and chill until ready to bake. Bake stuffing, covered, at 325°F, until heated through, about 45 minutes.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of oysters, but I'm so glad I did! The oysters added a subtle briny flavor that really complemented the other ingredients. This stuffing is now my new favorite!

This stuffing was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The combination of oysters, shiitake mushrooms, and leeks was絶妙, and the bread crumbs and herbs added the perfect amount of texture and flavor. I will definitely be making this again!
