Mushroom Brioche Stuffing Food

CHEESY MUSHROOM STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Push the mushrooms to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then add the scallion whites, shallot, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the shallot is softened, about 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully add the brandy. Return to the heat and cook until the pan is dry, about 30 seconds. Let cool slightly.
• Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, chicken broth, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the bread cubes, mushroom mixture, 1 cup each fontina and cheddar, the scallion greens and parsley. Let sit 30 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the egg mixture.
• Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Add the stuffing and top with the remaining 1/4 cup each fontina and cheddar. Bake until golden brown, about 1 hour. Let sit about 20 minutes before serving.

MUSHROOM, LEEK, AND BRIOCHE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Place cubed bread on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until slightly dry, 10 to 15 minutes.

• Return pan to medium heat and melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Add fennel and rosemary, and cook until fennel softens and starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Add leeks and cook until all the vegetables are very soft, about 5 minutes more. Return mushrooms to pan, add broth, and bring to a simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer vegetables to a large bowl and let cool slightly. Add cubed bread and eggs and toss until mixture is combined.
• Transfer bread mixture to baking dish. Bake in the center of the oven until golden brown and slightly puffed, 35 to 40 minutes (add 10 minutes if the dish has been refrigerated). Top with parsley and serve immediately.

BRIOCHE STUFFING WITH MUSHROOMS AND BACON

Steps:

• Toast the brioche: Preheat the oven to 300°F. Cut the brioche into 1-inch cubes. Spread them out into a single layer on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Bake them, tossing once, until dry to the touch and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Set them aside to cool. Increase the oven temperature to 375°F.
• Cook the bacon: In a large cold skillet, add the bacon in a single layer. Set the heat to medium heat, and fry until the bacon is crisp, flipping them once, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the bacon onto a paper towel-lined plate to cool. Once the bacon is cool enough to handle, roughly chop it. If needed, remove excess bacon grease from the skillet, leaving behind about 2 tablespoons. The rest of the grease can be stored for another use. Set the heat to medium heat.
• Sauté the vegetables: Add the butter, onion, and celery. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic, and cook until the mushrooms are tender, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and add all but 1 teaspoon of the parsley (it will be used for garnish) along with the sage and thyme. Toss to combine.
• Assemble the stuffing: Grease a 2 to 2 1/2-quart or 9x9-inch baking dish. In a large bowl, add the toasted brioche, chopped bacon, cooked vegetables, eggs, 1 1/2 cups broth, and salt. Scrape in any liquids left in the skillet too. Gently toss to combine. Add more broth as needed, 1/4 cup at a time, to hydrate the bread without making the mixture too soupy.
• Bake the stuffing: Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and cover it tightly with foil. Bake it until the stuffing is puffed and bubbly, about 25 minutes, then remove the foil. Bake it uncovered until browned on the top, about 20 minutes.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH-MUSHROOM STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 3-quart baking dish. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until all the moisture evaporates and the mushrooms start browning, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the mushrooms to a plate.
• Melt the remaining 6 tablespoons butter in the pot, then add the squash, collards, onion, celery, sage, thyme, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
• Whisk the eggs and parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread, mushrooms and vegetable-broth mixture and stir until combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with the turkey drippings (or dot with butter).
• Cover the dish with foil and bake 30 minutes, then uncover and bake until golden, about 30 more minutes.

STUFFING WITH MUSHROOMS, LEEKS AND BACON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 250 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Trim the crusts from the white bread and cut into 1-inch cubes; if using corn bread, coarsely crumble it. Spread the bread pieces out on one or two large baking sheets. Toast in the oven, tossing occasionally, until very dry, about 30 minutes for white bread, 1 hour for corn bread. Transfer to a large bowl to cool. Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon strips until crisp. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain, leaving the fat in the pan. Add the leeks to the bacon fat and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, until mushrooms are tender and most of their juices have evaporated, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the sage and cook 1 minute. Add the wine and cook until it evaporates, about 2 minutes.
• Spoon the mushroom mixture over the dried bread. Stir in stock. If using white bread, stir in the cider. Add parsley, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. The mixture should be moist and very soft. If you like your stuffing extremely moist, add enough stock to make it seem slightly soggy but not wet. (Think pudding.) Crumble bacon and stir it in.
• Transfer the bread mixture to the prepared baking pan. Drizzle 3 tablespoons melted butter over the stuffing. Bake until golden, 35 to 45 minutes.
