Sourdough Stuffing With Oyster Mushrooms And Kale Food

SOURDOUGH BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
• Cut or tear the bread into 1-inch cubes and spread it evenly on 2 baking sheets. Toast the bread in the oven until completely dry and beginning to crisp and brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and a few pinches of salt and saute, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add celery, onion, 2 tablespoons butter, and thyme. Once the butter has melted, cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes. Add sage and remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Add chicken broth to skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl. Pour the chicken broth mixture over the bread cubes and toss to combine until the bread cubes absorb the liquid. Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish, and sprinkle with parsley. Bake in the center of the oven until heated through and the top is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove the stuffing from the oven and allow to cool about 15 minutes before serving.

MUSHROOM-SOURDOUGH STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Bring the chicken broth and dried porcinis to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat and simmer until the broth takes on a strong mushroom flavor, about 15 minutes. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a large liquid measuring cup or bowl. Chop the porcinis and set aside.
• Meanwhile, melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the wild mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned and tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove to a plate.
• Add 6 tablespoons butter, the shallots, garlic and thyme to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the shallots are tender and lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the wild mushrooms, porcinis, reserved mushroom liquid, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat.
• Whisk the eggs with 2 tablespoons chives in a large bowl. Add the bread cubes and mushroom mixture and toss until evenly combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover with foil.
• Bake the stuffing until hot, about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons chives.

VEGAN SOURDOUGH STUFFING WITH WILD MUSHROOMS AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Tear the boule into 1-inch pieces and evenly divide between 2 medium sheet trays. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out into a flat, even layer.
• Bake on the upper and lower racks for 15 minutes; remove and toss, then switch the position of the sheet trays and bake until golden brown and crunchy, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• While the croutons bake, heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons olive oil and add half of the mushrooms; spread into an even layer. Cook for 5 minutes, undisturbed. Stir and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then add the remaining mushrooms. Cook until golden brown and softened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then pour into a large bowl.
• Heat the skillet again over medium heat. Drizzle in 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil and add the celery and scallions. Cook, stirring often, until they begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and add to the large bowl.
• Next, add the walnuts, thyme, rosemary, oregano and croutons; toss to combine. Add 2 cups of the broth, stir and let absorb for a few minutes, then add 1 cup. Stir and pour into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; add the remaining 1/2 cup broth and finish with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Bake until golden and crispy on top, 30 to 35 minutes.

SOURDOUGH STUFFING WITH KALE AND DATES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the crust off the bread and tear remaining loaf into 1-inch croutons. Place torn bread on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with 4 tablespoons olive oil, squeezing and tossing bread with your hands to help it absorb the oil. Transfer to oven and toast, tossing once or twice, until croutons are golden brown and crispy on the outside but still a little soft and tender inside, 12 to 15 minutes. When croutons have cooled, place them in a large bowl.
• Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and crumble sausage into pan. Sauté, breaking up sausage with a wooden spoon, until browned and just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer sausage to the bowl with the croutons using a slotted spoon.
• Return the pot to medium heat and add 2 more tablespoons olive oil, the onions, the rosemary sprig, the thyme and the chile. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Continue cooking another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often, until onion is soft and starting to color slightly.
• Add half the kale and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the pan. Use tongs to turn the greens to coat them in oil and help them wilt and cook down. When there is room in the pan (from the greens wilting), add the rest of the kale and season with another 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. As soon as all the kale has wilted, transfer mixture to the bowl with the croutons and sausage. Remove rosemary. Add dates and stir well to combine.
• Return pot to stove over high heat and carefully pour in sherry. Boil until sherry is reduced by three-quarters, then add stock. Boil until mixture is reduced by half, then swirl in butter until melted.
• Pour hot liquid over crouton-kale mixture. Add almonds and toss well to combine; using tongs or your hands, squeeze and massage the stuffing to integrate the flavors and make sure bread has really soaked in all the liquid.
• Transfer stuffing to a ceramic baking dish or casserole. Cover and bake 15 minutes in the 400-degree oven. Uncover and bake 10 to 15 more minutes, or until top is golden and crisp.
