Farce A La Tapenade Turkey Stuffing Recipes

Steps:

• Break up sausage meat and sauté in a frying pan over low heat until lightly browned; drain, reserving fat.
• Place sausage meat in a large mixing bowl.
• Return 2 tablespoons of sausage fat to the frying pan (if sausage meat didn't render enough fat, substitute olive oil); sauté onions until golden- about 8 minutes; add optional minced liver and sauté with onion an additional 2 minutes.
• Add onion mixture to sausage.
• Sauté mushrooms in 2 additional tablespoons of sausage fat (or olive oil) until pieces begin to separate from each other; add to sausage mixture.
• Add olives, anchovies, capers, orange zest, eggs, garlic, and herbs to sausage meat.
• Fold in the croutons, add salt and pepper to taste.
• Loosely stuff front and rear cavities of turkey immediately before roasting, or bake for 50 minutes in a 350 degree F.
• oven in a covered casserole.
• Makes about 2-1/2 quarts, or enough to stuff a 16- to 20-pound turkey.

Steps:

• Prepare stuffing according to package directions, and set aside in a large bowl.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bring water to boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and stir in the onion, celery and sage. Boil 10 minutes, or until the onion is soft. Stir into the prepared stuffing.
• Rinse turkey, and pat dry. Loosely fill the body and neck cavities with the stuffing mixture.
• Place turkey in a large roasting pan and cook 3 to 3 1/2 hours in the preheated oven, or until the internal temperature of the thigh meat is 180 degrees F (80 degrees C) and the stuffing is at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the onions, celery and mushrooms in butter until tender. Add broth and seasonings; mix well. Place bread cubes in a large bowl; add mushroom mixture and toss to coat. Stir in enough warm water to reach desired moistness. , Just before baking, loosely stuff turkey. Place any remaining stuffing in a greased baking dish; cover and refrigerate until ready to bake. Skewer turkey openings; tie drumsticks together with kitchen string. Place breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Brush with melted butter., Bake turkey, uncovered, at 325° for 3-3/4 to 4-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 180° for the turkey and 165° for the stuffing, basting occasionally with pan drippings. (Cover loosely with foil if turkey browns too quickly.), Bake additional stuffing, covered, for 30-40 minutes. Uncover; bake 10 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Cover turkey with foil and let stand for 20 minutes before removing stuffing and carving. If desired, thicken pan drippings for gravy.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy skillet over medium heat melt the butter, then sauté the onion and celery (and mushroom, if using) until the onion is soft, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the salt, pepper, and sage and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
• Place the bread cubes into a large, deep bowl.
• Pour 1/4 cup of the butter/celery mixture over the cubes and toss well, then repeat steps until all of the butter mixture is used.
• Toss the cubes thoroughly to coat.
• (Regarding the optional chicken broth: for dry stuffing, add little or no liquid; for moist stuffing mix in lightly with fork just enough chicken broth to moisten dry crumbs.) Let cool and use as stuffing for the turkey.
• We've made this stuffing in the crockpot, as well, adding the chicken broth for moistness.
• Adapted from Betty Crocker's Picture Cook Book, circa 1950.
• Note: regardling the amount of salt - yes, the amount listed above is correct and is what is listed in the original Betty Crocker recipe. When the butter mixture is first added to the bread, if you taste it at this point it might seem salty (because it is sitting right on the surface of the bread) but remember that the liquid and butter soaks into the bread and redistributes evenly. Also, this recipe, being from the 1950s, is specifically for cooking *inside* the turkey, which a lot of people no longer do, and again the salt will redistribute from the juices in the meat. If you use a crockpot for cooking your stuffing, I'd recommend reducing the amount of salt.
• Note #2: again, regarding the salt. You're going to have to decide for yourself about the salt. Having eaten this recipe for every year of my life I know it tastes wonderful as it's written. But that's just me.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (175˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Toast the pasta for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown.
• Bring a large pot of water to boil over high level heat, and season with salt.
• Add the toasted pasta to the water and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until al dente.
• Reserve ½ cup (50 g) of the pasta cooking water and drain the pasta.
• In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic, thyme, and pepper, and cook until fragrant.
• Add the pasta to the sauce, along with the reserved water, and mix thoroughly to coat.
• Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
• Enjoy!
