Blue Cheese Cornbread Dressing Stuffing Food

ULTIMATE CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a small square baking dish or spray it with cooking spray.
• Mix together the muffin mix, cream, eggs, sugar, oil, vanilla, and poppy seeds to make a batter.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and the top springs back when pressed lightly, 15 to 20 minutes. Allow to cool completely; cut into small squares and transfer to a bowl.
• Reduce oven heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned. Add the peppers and onions to the skillet; cook and stir until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and add to bowl with cornbread squares; season with marjoram, pour in the chicken broth; mix. Spoon mixture into the prepared baking dish; cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven until heated through, about 30 minutes.

• Sift together the cornmeal, baking powder, and flour.
• Whisk the dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture.
• Pour into greased baking dish and bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
• While the cornbread is baking, sautè the onion and garlic in butter in a large skillet until translucent.

• Combine, then slowly add stock, mixing until well incorporated.
• Add pepper to taste.
• Bake in a covered casserole dish for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

SUNNY'S CHEESY BACON CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• For the cornbread: In a large bowl, add the cornbread and toss with the Cheddar Jack, mozzarella, parsley and scallions. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the dressing: In a large pan, add the bacon and cook until crisp. Remove, leaving the fat behind, and chop. Add the chopped bacon to the bowl of cornbread. Add the sage, celery, onions and garlic to the pan and saute until everything is tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Add everything, including the fat from the pan, to the cornbread and toss.
• For the liquid: In a separate large bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, stock and Worcestershire sauce. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Slowly mix into the cornbread until the mixture is moist enough to spread but not wet enough to drip--you may not use all the liquid. Taste and season again with salt and pepper if needed.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the bottom and sides of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Add the dressing to the prepared baking dish, gently pressing down to even the top. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover, raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F, and bake until the top is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more. Serve warm.

CURTIS BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Serve with choice of salad.
• TIP: CHOPPED SALAD IN ENDIVE LEAVES
• Finely chop your favorite salad fixings such as peppers, cucumbers, onion, blue cheese and mix with your favorite vinaigrette. Separate endive leaves to equal lengths and fill for hors douevres, right before serving

SCALLION-CHEDDAR CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees if you are planning to bake the stuffing right away (otherwise don't heat it yet). Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart baking dish or an 8-inch pan (square or round will work).
• Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white and light green parts from the dark green parts. Save the dark green parts for later.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter (save the remaining 2 tablespoons butter for the topping). When the white butter foam has mostly disappeared, add white and light-green scallion slices, celery and the pinch of salt. Cook vegetables, stirring them often, until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the pepper. (If you're grinding it from a pepper mill, you don't have to measure it. Just turn the mill 10 times over the pan.) Move the skillet to an unlit burner on your stove and let the mixture cool.
• Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk them together until well mixed. Add cooled celery mixture, dark green scallion parts, cornbread, sage or rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cayenne, if using. Stir in the 1 1/2 cups stock, adding more as needed to moisten all the cornbread. You want it moist but not mushy. (Stop before it looks like oatmeal.) Fold in 1/2 cup Cheddar, the Parmesan and parsley.
• Spoon the stuffing into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar. Cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes and scatter those over the top of the stuffing. (At this point, you can wrap the cornbread with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.)
• When ready to bake, if you haven't heated the oven, do so now. Bake stuffing until crisp and browned on top, about 25 to 35 minutes. (It will take longer if you're baking it straight from the fridge.) Serve hot or warm.

SKILLET DRESSING WITH CORNBREAD AND BISCUITS

Steps:

• For the cornbread:
• Place a large cast-iron skillet in oven; preheat to 425°F. Whisk cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper in a large bowl to combine. Whisk egg, buttermilk, and oil in a medium bowl to combine. Create a well in dry ingredients. Pour buttermilk mixture into well and whisk until no dry spots remain.
• Remove cast-iron skillet from oven (be careful; pan will be very hot). Add butter to pan and swirl to coat. Pour batter into pan and spread evenly. Bake cornbread until edges are golden brown and top is golden, 20-25 minutes.
• Immediately turn cornbread out onto a wire rack so bottom stays crisp. Let cool slightly, then invert onto another wire rack and let cool completely.
• Do Ahead: Cornbread can be baked 5 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature, or freeze up to 3 months.
• For the dressing:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Butter a large cast-iron skillet; set aside. Melt remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened and just starting to take on some color, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, tear cornbread into roughly 1" pieces and transfer to a large bowl. Tear biscuits into slightly smaller pieces and add to same bowl.
• Scrape vegetable mixture into bowl with bread and add sage, pepper, and remaining 2 tsp. salt. Gently toss to combine. Whisk eggs, stock, and vinegar in a medium bowl to combine. Drizzle over cornbread mixture and gently toss again to incorporate. Spoon dressing into prepared pan and bake until set and browned and crisp across the top, 45-55 minutes.
• Do Ahead: Dressing can be baked 1 day ahead. Let cool, then cover with foil and chill. Reheat in a 350°F oven, covered, until warmed through, 25-30 minutes, before serving.

JULIE'S CORNBREAD DRESSING OR STUFFING

Steps:

• DAY BEFORE OR EARLY IN THE DAY.
• Make cornbread.
• Pinch up other bread into 1/2" pieces and toast in oven until dry but not brown or hard. I use a large cookie sheet at 200 degrees for 1 hours.
• Dice celery and onion and keep refrigerated.
• 2 1/2 HOURS BEFORE SERVING.
• Crumble cornbread by hand into the bowl with the bread.
• Add the eggs, sage, salt and pepper.
• Add 2 cups of turkey broth.
• Add the cream.
• Add additional chicken broth, until you reach the right consistency. Be careful not to add too much as the dressing will not set. (You want enough liquid so that the bread will soak it up and still be just slightly soupy.).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. (If using the same oven as the turkey, plan to cook longer to accommodate the lower oven temperature.).
• If not using a disposable pan, spray pan with Pam AND line it with heavy duty aluminum foil or regular aluminum foil, doubled. Spray the foil as well.
• 1 1/4 HOUR BEFORE SERVING.
• Place dressing in the oven.
• Check on it starting at 45 minutes. Depending on the size of your pan (the depth of the dressing), it will take anywhere from 45 minutes up to 1 1/4 hour to get done.
• Serve and enjoy!

EASY CORNBREAD-BROWN BUTTER STUFFING

Steps:

• In a medium skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Cook, undisturbed, until the foam subsides and the butter is a deep brown and smells nutty. Transfer immediately to a heatproof liquid measuring cup or bowl.
• In a large bowl, combine the cornbread, scallions, 3 tablespoons butter, eggs, sage, salt, chili powder and black pepper. If the mixture looks dry, add a little stock or water.
• Spoon the stuffing into a 1 1/2 quart gratin dish. Drizzle the remaining butter over the stuffing. (At this point you can wrap well with plastic wrap and refrigerate it overnight.)
• Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake until crisp and browned on top, about 30 to 45 minutes.
