Turn off the heat. (At this point, you may refrigerate the stuffing, well wrapped or in a covered container, for up to a day before proceeding.)
• Pack into a turkey if you like before roasting, or just bake in an ovenproof glass or enameled baking dish for about 45 minutes at 350 to 400. (You can also cook it up to 3 days in advance and just warm it up right before dinner.)

SAVORY STUFFING BREAD

Steps:

• Mix yeast, warm water, sugar, salt, eggs, and vegetable oil together in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, poultry seasoning, savory, sage, dill, black pepper, and nutmeg until thoroughly combined. Beat the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, about 1 cup at a time, until the dough is smooth; add up to 1 more cup of flour if needed.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface, and knead until the dough is springy, smooth, and elastic, about 8 minutes. Form the dough into a ball, and place into an oiled bowl. Turn the dough ball around in the bowl to lightly oil the dough, then cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

AMAZING STUFFING FROM SCRATCH (BREADMAKER RECOMMENDED)

Steps:

• For the Bread- set up your breadmaker for a 2 pound loaf on the wheat setting and follow your breadmaker's instructions on what order to add ingredients if it's different from my order.
• Combine Milk, 1.5 tsp Salt, 2 tbs butter and put in breadmaker.
• Combine both flours, sugar, pepper, thyme, rosemary, sage, savory, parsley, and poultry seasoning. Mix well.
• Add dry mixture to breadmaker.
• Add yeast to breadmaker.
• Bake on the "Whole Wheat" setting for a 2 pound loaf.
• When finished, remove bread promptly and let cool.
• Preheat oven to 200°F If you have a convection setting (with the fan) use it.
• Chop up bread into 1" chunks and spread them out on a baking sheet.
• Lightly toast the bread chunks in the oven until dry, turning them several times as needed. You want them to be dry but not crunchy. This takes 20-30 minutes. Alternatively, you can let them sit on the counter under a towel for 24 hours until stale instead of toasting.
• For the stuffing part:.
• In a large skillet, melt the 3/4 cup of butter.
• Add onions and celery.
• Saute for 3 to 5 minutes until they start to turn translucent.
• Add garlic, saute for another 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove from heat.
• Add walnuts and mix well.
• Place bread chunks into a large bowl.
• Add vegetable mixture, eggs, 2 teaspoons salt. Mix well.
• Butter a casserole dish- I use a 12 x 15 but whatever you have that will fit the stuffing is fine. Remember you can serve the stuffing straight from this dish, so use something pretty if you want.
• Directions for baking right away: add 1 cup of broth now and mix well again, then continue adding broth until the stuffing looks moist. I use at least 4 cups. It will dry out some in the oven so don't skimp. Put the whole thing in the buttered dish. Cover with foil.
• Directions to freeze for later:, put the bread mixture into the buttered dish, cover with foil, and put it in the freezer. Get out a 12-cup muffin tin and pour your broth evenly into all the cups. Stick in the freezer until frozen solid. By this time your bread mixture is also frozen. Place the 12 frozen rounds of broth into the pan, re-cover, stick back in the freezer. It will freeze just fine for at least a month, probably longer.
• Directions for baking:.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Bake, covered, for 45 minutes until heated through. You may need to add 10 minutes if you froze the mixture.
• Remove foil, stir gently.
• Bake, uncovered, another 15 minutes until golden brown.
• Serve warm, with gravy.

THE BEST SOURDOUGH STUFFING

Steps:

• Chop the onions, celery, mushrooms, garlic, optional walnuts or chestnuts, and herbs.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, mushrooms, and garlic. Saute and add salt and pepper to taste (the amount you use will depend on your preference and your stock e.g. homemade unsalted or not).
• When the vegetables have softened, add the herbs and optional nuts, and saute for another minute or so, then add 1 cup of the stock.
• In a medium bowl (with a pour spout if possible), beat the eggs, then add the remaining 2 cups of stock.
• Place your cubed sourdough bread in a large mixing bowl. (You could put the bread directly in the baking pan, but stirring may be difficult.)
• Pour the saute mixture over the cubed bread and mix. Then pour on the stock-egg mixture and fold everything until it's thoroughly combined.
• Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly oil or butter a 9x13 baking dish.
• Transfer the mixture to your baking dish and spread evenly, cover and let sit for about 20 minutes for the bread to absorb the liquids.
• After the rest, if the top bread cubes seem dry and there is no loose liquid underneath, sprinkle on 1-2 cups of water, stir everything again inside the pan, and then put the pan in the oven.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the internal temperature is at least 160°F. Cover with foil if the stuffing begins to brown too much.
• After removing from the oven, sprinkle with additional fresh herbs if you want.
