I’m an American living in France and will be hosting Thanksgiving. Not a big group-I’m on immunotherapy and don’t have the energy for a big group. 3 friends from Norway are coming and it’s their first Thanksgiving. I am allergic to celery so I use fennel instead. Once it’s cooked in butter, it’s a great addition.

[@lindaevans6461]

Fennel? Interesting idea, I might try that, I love fennel.

[@kkz201]

Great idea for a swap!

[@Mainecoonlady.]

I’m Italian American and I love fennel. We make pasta with and at thanksgiving we would add it to the antipasto, like celery. My Mom would have a plate of olive oil seasoned with Italian herbs, for dipping fennel. Yummy stuff!

[@user-wq7hw2ow9l]

Whenever I buy a roasted chicken from the store, I drain off the juices in the bottom of the container and store in the freezer. By Thanksgiving, I have a nice amount of roasted chicken drippings to use in my stuffing and gravy. The oven roasted drippings make the stuffing taste like it was cooked in the bird.

[@Mainecoonlady.]

My mom always put bacon in the stuffing. Great flavor! They I use dried cranberries, soaked in brandy to plump. Add those in for that tart and sweet touch. I add mushrooms too. Then I bake the stuffing in muffin trays. I use large size. Great crusty outside. Tender and luscious inside. Yummy!

[@dianeragland3031]

This Southern girl makes her stuffing like my family has always done. Tuesday I bake up a couple of skillets of cornbread (NO sugar!!!) and a couple of pans of biscuits. Turn them frequently to dry them out. On Thanksgiving I crumble the cornbread, rough chop the biscuits and add the other delicious ingredients that you use. I make enough to stuff the turkey and bake a generous pan of dressing. Yum!!!

[@peanutcampbell]

Same here!!

[@happyfisherman4432]

I am a professional chef and when I make dressing at work, it’s made like you do it in a roasting pan, but when I make it at home, I stuff it in the bird because it just tastes better all the juices dripping over it while it cooks. I cook my home birds in a roasting bag which self bastes , and it also gets the temperature high enough to ensure the stuffing is cooked all the way through. Just on a sidenote, if it’s not put into the bird, it’s called dressing if it gets shoved into the bird to cook, it’s then stuffing because it was stuffed into the bird.

[@michaelbrown7881]

[@rhonda.santis]

I like that you added background music! It gives a cozy bistro vibe

[@dww2006]

Thanks for this wonderful recipe, I love alternatives. I grew up with literally stuffing a bird. My dad was amazing cook and made amazing “dressing” as we called it. I didn’t know anyone who didn’t stuff their turkeys or chickens. I’m from Canada and I’ve seen so many different versions and ALL have been delicious. So wherever you’re from learning something new or different is worthwhile. Wherever you’re from, DON’T IGNORE this version. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🍁🍁🦃🦃🍽️🍽️

[@recoveringsoul755]

My mom made dressing also. She added water chestnuts and slivered almonds. That stuff was the bomb!! So good We'd freeze some and bake some whenever we liked by adding broth

[@Mainecoonlady.]

My mom sometimes used roasted chestnut. Not water chestnuts. Just adds a slight taste of nutty sweetness.

[@JM-bq9sc]

Another great thing to add to this would be carrots. Adding a mirepoix to this when the onions and celery were added adds a wonderful touch to the stuffing and gives it color and a sweet note!

[@mgl7728]

Thank you for this great recipe! I noticed that your eyes were reddened after cutting the onion. So here‘s a trick how to avoid burning eyes and tears: just wet a kitchen towel or paper towel and put it in front or beside the cutting board while cutting onions. It works for me! 👍🏻

[@arnoldkotlyarevsky383]

Best easy mod to make this better, mix your breads. I usually opt for one that has whole wheat along with a white bread. The variation in texture is really nice and easy to do.

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Stuffing is also huge here in Australia. I like the way it flavours the bird when it is cooked inside, though a casserole dish does mean lots more leftovers! Thank you for the video!

[@themermaidstale5008]

In the US, it’s stuffing when cooked inside the bird, and you only loosely stuff the cavity, so there’s not much quantity. If you bake it in a pan, we call that dressing. But whatever it’s called, it’s as much a star of the table as the bird. But folks also use the words interchangeably and everybody knows what they’ve talking about.

[@bogus_not_me]

I've been advised that cooking stuffing inside the tuturkey is not advisable any more! Make the dressing (in an oven safe glass pan) and use turkey seasonings!

[@themermaidstale5008]

@@bogus_not_me If done in the turkey you just make sure it’s loosely packed in the cavity and it reaches a certain recommended temperature and then remove all of it -don’t store it in the bird. I just make dressing in a pan.

Great recipe, thanks John. You are right, celery is great and very versatile.

[@subliminalphish]

I use my grandmother's stuffing/dressing recipe but I add one herb she never did and it ups the flavor very well that herb is terragon.i add equal to the sage, a1:1 ratio.ill add approx 2tbspsage to 1 tsp of thyme, 1/4 tsp of savory margerum and rosemary.i also use a mirepoix of celery , onion an a nice diced sweet apple sauteed in butter seasoned with salt and pepper. I used terragon to make a hunter sauce and fell in love with it. I find the better the quality of bread is a must.id say a brioche but an artisan bread is so much better. Oh im one of those that will dry out any breads used the year round for bread crumbs even left over garlic bread . That make a fine seasoned bread crumb for so much , even to top Mac n cheese.

I loooove your recipes! This one I watched out of curiosity, because I always make my mother’s from when I was a child. I am going to add a few tweaks from your recipe though😊. My mother’s includes chicken (or turkey) liver and it cooks inside the turkey . Thank you for your great recipes! ❤

[@janiec3915]

My mother taught me how to cook a Thanksgiving dinner back when I was 21. She had surgery that week and couldn't do much so she had to tell me how to do everything. She always used Pepperidge Farm Herbed Season stuffing and after it was prepped would stuff the turkey right before putting it in the oven. 32 years later, I still stuff my turkey with my homemade bread and herb stuffing right before it goes in the oven. I've never gotten anyone sick and I think the turkey juices is what makes the stuffing delicious! And no eggs! I've tried making it in the pan and it isn't the same. Maybe I'll try this and see how it goes. Happ And I use the celery leaves as they add extra flavor that is delicious! Happy Thanksgiving to all!

[@deborahpasha9727]

Ok. My family makes a cornbread dressing and they do use some sandwich bread. A little mushy is good because of the way we reheat it. The next day we add a little butter to a skillet and fry it. OMG! The little crisp edges are the best! But your stuffing looks great as well😁.

[@runin1wild149]

Amazing flavors, This is one of my favorites dishes when my mom use to make, was the best dish on Thanksgiving table, one thing she added was a chopped green pepper and the turkey Broth. It is a must have anytime not just for thanksgiving. I could just eat this and skip the turkey. 🥰

I got a recipe from Bon Appétit with green apples, Italian sausage, dried cranberries, and leeks instead of onions. It's delicious too.

[@suzisaintjames]

Mmmm! I love apple sausage! 💖🌞🌵😷

[@JP-lb5bm]

The celery leaves are also very flavorful. Growing up my family always used sausage in the dressing, but I am a vegetarian so when I got older and took over making the dressing, I eliminated the sausage and added fennel seeds as an alternative so I could eat the dressing too. Nobody missed the sausage.

[@totalredeem44]

Nobody missed the sausages ? You're certain ? Keep a doubt.

[@JP-lb5bm]

Fennel is what gives sausage its distinct flavor, so by adding the seeds to the dressing the sausage flavor was still there.

[@jhutch1681]

Sage, savoury, poultry seasoning, a bit of ginger and a splash of cream are the secrets to my stuffing. I use fresh bread and prefer the casserole method.

Best Gravy👇🏼 Buy a rotisserie chicken sometime before Thanksgiving, eat the chicken boil everything but the meat and Walla you have the best base for the best gravy✅ I add fresh black pepper to it. I might add some cream of chicken, or chicken broth, 🥕 carrots, seasoning as you like Make your way it’s the BEST GRAVY base. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@colleenpritchett6914]

In our family since my great grandmother we do not use dried bread, we use fresh “squishy “ white bread. It is torn, s&p, onions and celery. It is then rubbed to distribute and poultry seasoning and sage are added to “smell”. You want to be able to smell all the spices including the salt and pepper. Again you “rub” until the “correct” smell is achieved . Then a dry red wine is added just to moisten, with areas not wet. Stuff the bird. Make extra for the oven sautéing the onion and celery and follow the rest of the ingredients. Bake 350-45”. Mix the 2 stuffings together. Every single person raves about it because it is completely different.

[@suzisaintjames]

John, since there isn't anything in this recipe that requires something leftover over from Tday (Turkey day), why not make this again as a Tday leftover casserole... just add several cups of shredded turkey meat, bake and enjoy with a delicious protein! 💖🌞🌵😷
