TRADITIONAL Sage and Onion STUFFING

[@Leesa111_0]

😋 love sage & onion stuffing. Thanks Rik ❤️

[@BackyardChef]

You are so welcome. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@stephaniegee227]

At this point, you're helping me make 3 of my holiday side dishes. Stuffing. Carrots. Parsnips. And I thank you.

[@BackyardChef]

You are very welcome. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@brocktoon8]

Me too!!

[@neilanthonyhaywardlewis8978]

Better than the packeted stuff we were brought on in the 60's & 70's, the paxo rubbish... Make it fresh all the way 😊

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@patriciamorgan6545]

My favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner. And Christmas dinner, and New Years... I make mine with A LOT of onion and celery, about equal parts veggies to starch, if not more. About a quart each diced onion and celery to a 12 oz package (which has been shrinking over the decades, down from a pound) of stuffing. I use the Pepperidge Farm blue bag, which has a mix of bread types (dark and light) in irregular, crumbled bits. And I add my own seasoning, often fresh herbs that I've kept alive all summer just for this glorious finale. Rik, you always manage to make me hungry!❤

[@BackyardChef]

Sounds amazing! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@telebubba5527]

Sage and onion stuffing!😋 I agree, absolutely the best! Nothing can beat a freshly made sage and onion stuffing.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

WOW CHEF RIK YOU AMAZING ❤ THANK YOU FOR 2 STUFFING RECEPIES 👌💯♥️♥️♥️

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@audreycastelton2655]

Yep so easy - you had me with the rosemary salt at the beginning lol and then melted butter on the breadcrumbs. Previously been a packet stuffing or made it with bread and made stuffing balls. Love that it can be made 2 days in advance. Then "crusty peaks" and butter ontop 😂 Finally a stuffing sandwich.....❤❤❤ Oh my goodness - what's not to like, Rik!

[@BackyardChef]

Thanks for sharing, Audrey. I liked reading. Thank you. Best, Rik

I love stuffing! It's my favorite part of Thanksgiving! There are endless varieties of stuffing and I love all of them. Thanks for sharing, Rik! 💜

[@BackyardChef]

[@sheilabrown3885]

Yummy that looks so delicious ❤

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@wwsuwannee7993]

Sage is awesome. I had a sagged bacon and vermicelli dish in Sicily once. In later life, I tried and tried to replicate it until I got it right. Seldom used, but in my book one of the King of herbs, it's what gives poultry seasoning it's "somethin'-somethin'. It's an indispensable herb for holiday dishes in western culture. I have never seen just an "onion" stuffing. This is great, thanks Rik :)

[@telebubba5527]

You can also try it in a green salad. Gives it an unique twist. Maybe other salades as well, but I haven't tried them myself yet.

[@BackyardChef]

Thanks for sharing! That dish sounds great. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@carols.4252]

I know the dish. My grandmother is from Castelveltrano. It’s a sort of saltimbocca made with pancetta or cheek.

[@JeffM---]

Nice one, Rik. I have always made stuffing that was cooked inside a roasting chicken. I never heard of baking it.

[@BackyardChef]

Hope you enjoy. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@creatiffy]

I also cooked stuffing in the turkey and also put grated carrot and celery in the mix

[@jennyt966]

Delicious. So much better than a packet mix. Thanks, Rik.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Yes I agree - however the packet comes in handy. Best, Rik

[@chalkiememe4183]

I’m just at the moment about to go shopping for my fruits etc in order to make your Christmas mince pie recipe. Everyone loved them last year and I was thrilled to have made the pies totally from scratch 😂. I love being retired, I have time to indulge in lots of cooking and baking. I’m going to give this stuffing a bash soon and the sausage and cranberry one, they look amazing. I’m going to put a request to Santa for a new years gym/diet club membership 😂. Thanks so much Rik for all the fabulous recipes and hard work and planning that goes into your videos. We all appreciate you.

[@BackyardChef]

Ha ha ha - love it. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@bonnieg8356]

My grandma, my mom and me. All of us do sage stuffing. We also add celery, but otherwise the same! YUM!

[@BackyardChef]

Lovely! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@carolvenables3970]

The way you slapped that bread on the table😂😂 I'm defo making this ❤

[@BackyardChef]

Ha ha ha - Thank you. Best, Rik

[@MS-lh3oh]

Couldn't pass this video by. I love onions almost anyway they're cooked. Raised my own sage this summer too. I appreciate the way you don't say that your way is the only way and to do it the way it suits our taste. I must admit I do like the way you do your prep. I watched a video about Julia Child. They told how she wouldn't hire someone because they didn't cut the onions right. And the way you get everything from the bowl, I was brought up not to waste anything. In our big family there was not much waste and not too many leftovers, I was the last of thirteen children. Oh my I go on too much. But thanks ever so much for making good old comfort food that reminds me of my childhood.

[@BackyardChef]

Thanks for sharing - liked reading. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@JMN-n2j3EBE777]

Great Rik! You are getting us ready for Christmas!! ❤

[@BackyardChef]

Yes indeed, hope it helps get in the mood. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@JamesReuben-fp3nk]

I absolutely adore stuffing Thanks Rik

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@Harvey39]

I've always wanted to make stuffing from scratch but wasn't confident but you made it look so easy. Thanks Rik!

[@BackyardChef]

You got this. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@daisy1430]

Thank for sharing your recipe and video for home made stuffing. You are right - it is so easy to do and gives me pleaure in making it - the smell when it is is the oven is just lovely and brings back memories of helping my nan in her kitchen. It was my job to make the breadcrumbs out of a stale loaf, by rubbing the bread between my fingers. into the waiting bowl. (The bread was homemade and kept a few days to go a little stale). Sage is such an easy inexpensive plant to grow in a pot. I also dry a few sprigs, so I am never without this auromatic herb.

[@BackyardChef]

Thanks for sharing. Liked reading. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@trinitywright7122]

Two recipes in one day and they're both delicious kinds of stuffing for Thanksgiving!! Woohoo THANK YOU, RIK

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Appreciated. Best, Rik

[@weewhorobin8202]

Sage and onion 🧅! Yes please 😊

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@dianeladico1769]

Both recipes look so good, thank you. I make my mom's recipe on Thanksgiving but there's plenty of room in our lives for your versions. I'd never thought to use bread crumbs, I've always used shreds or cubes. And, I've got a couple of canisters of Panko in the pantry that I just don't like and now they'll be wonderful thanks to you.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Here is a way to use them up. Best, Rik

[@lilliankeane5731]

Love sage, this stuffing is reminding me very much, of my childhood christmases . Memories came flooding back. Makes me want to smell it again. Thanks for the walk down memory lane Rik. 🙌🏼♥️.

[@BackyardChef]

You are so welcome. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@grahamturner5963]

I do enjoy making my own stuffing 😋 At Christmas my mother always added sausage meat & that's a tradition I've kept going.

[@BackyardChef]

Always keep it going, Graham. Family traditions need keeping alive. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@susan_elizabeth]

Rik, you are giddy! I feel the same way about stuffing! 😃

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Appreciated. Best, Rik

[@BitOHoney276]

Delicious! 😊 in the southern US we use cornbread, some stale breadcrumbs. The spices used vary from person to person but I'm a sage and onion girl. Butter and chicken broth with a few eggs. I prefer a stiff mashed potato texture in mine, no gravy needed unless you want it. ❤ I love your channel.

[@BackyardChef]

Sounds great! Thanks for sharing. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@yolandagarza3319]

I can smell it from here 😊 thank you chef

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@lisamessiana1032]

Nice! Easy! Delicious!😋 Just in time for Thanksgiving🦃 here in the US🇺🇲 Thanks Rik🙏♥️

[@BackyardChef]

Agreed! Keep it easy. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@beverlyshane8433]

That’s how I make my stuffing but I use broken up bread. If I have leftover stuffing after stuffing the turkey, I put it in a muffin tin and it gets crispy on top. Love stuffing on a cold turkey sandwich with some cranberry sauce on it.

[@dianeladico1769]

stuffing on a cold turkey sandwich with some cranberry sauce on it...AKA Black Friday breakfast

My Mom made sage, and onion stuffing to go with pork,and thyme,and parsley to go with chicken,or turkey.My highlight after Christmas was a cold Turkey sandwich with stuffing, reading what other people say I think most wanted hot turkey sandwich with gravy,but not me.😊

[@BackyardChef]

Cold sandwiches with turkey stuffing delicious. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@michaelamann3060]

Just what I needed , thanks 💕👍🏻

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@samanthafox2664]

My recipe is almost identical to yours Rik, (except for the rosemary salt, which I will try next time). I always roll the mixture into balls and then I freeze them in a ziplock bag. Whenever we fancy some with a roast, I take out as many as is needed and bake them from frozen - they have a lovely crispy outside and are just delicious. Also superb cold, crumbled in a roll /sandwich with leftover roast chicken or pork and a smear of mayo...

[@BackyardChef]

You have this cracked - just the way to do it. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@PAM-ud9lv]

Oh Rik you’ve got me. Sage and onion for me Think I’ll make a small dish and a couple of stuffing balls I usually use a pkt but I could taste and smell this lol. I do we wish we had smelly and taste vision. Imagine. Thanks as always Rik. Take care

[@BackyardChef]

You are very welcome. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@juliawitt3813]

So great to see scratch cooking making a comback. My.Mother always made it like this and then threw in a packet of Paxo. I do the same , just for the memories it beings back. Still do a traditional Xmas lunch even in the heat of the South. I also love rich buttery onion sauce ❤ thanks for the reminder.

[@BackyardChef]

Sounds great! Thank You. Best, Rik

[@DGKK55]

Oh the packet stuff repeats and repeats and repeats!!! Might give this a go this year, thank you 😁

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@elainehumphrey2307]

My mum always made her own sage and onion. She always rubbed the butter in the ingredients and never with white cut bread and never in a dish, always in the Turkey or chicken for a roast.

[@BackyardChef]

Sounds great! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@burgundyrose_bunni]

My family use thyme, instead of sage. But love it❤️❤️

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@GillNolan]

I've just chopped my sage right down to pot level so will now use the dried sage with your recipe. I love sage and onion at any time of year but have always used the old faithful packet, I'm going to do my own now, just wish I'd have dried a few leaves 😢 . Oh well dried will suffice for now and I'll know better for next year, thanks Rik, love ya 😊x

[@BackyardChef]

Thanks for sharing, Gill. Love reading. Yes the packet is always handy. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@MjaHap]

I make this, but use (rolled) oats instead of breadcrumbs, and don’t bother with an egg. Another one of Rik’s dishes that really hits home. 😊

Could have used your stuffing recipes a month ago for our Thanksgiving 😅 . Christmas is coming and any time will do. We used to use a sage and onion type dressing to roll inside a flank steak or a thin/butterflies round steak. Tied it up with string and roasted. We called it "mock duck" for some reason. Was a nice meal on a Sunday along with roasted veg and dark gravy. Got a laugh from the squash and fluff- was exactly what I was thinking.

Sounds great! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@joaniemarjoriemarriott342]

This is a use for the day-old rye bread that I purchase from a favourite local bakery. I get to shop about once every two weeks so I stock up and I freeze bread for toast and baking projects. Shopping requires a trip by private vehicle so its a big-shop to ensure the fuel cost are not spent on extra trips to the nearest small or medium sized town. There are no convenience stores nearby.

I add sausage meat and chopped apple to mine. Now, Ric, if you want to pay homage to the neighbors to the north, use oats. I know. It sounds weird. But the outcome is fantastic and my mother always used it in chicken. Lots of butter, some sausage, herbs, onion, apples and oats. Moisten a bit with cider or stock. I invite anyone to give it a whirl. Nice option for people with wheat sensitivity.

[@BackyardChef]
