Questions about Bread stuffing

Is it safer to bake bread stuffing inside the bird or in a dish?

Bake it in a separate dish for more even cooking. If you stuff a bird, fill it just before roasting and check the centre of the stuffing reaches 75 °C; the bird may be ready before the stuffing is.

How do you stop bread stuffing from drying out in the oven?

Use stale bread cut into small cubes, then add stock gradually until the pieces are moist but not swimming. Cover the dish with foil for most of the bake, then uncover it for the last 10 minutes to crisp the top.

Can you make bread stuffing ahead of time?

You can assemble it a day ahead and keep it covered in the fridge, but bake it separately rather than putting cold stuffing inside a bird. If it contains raw egg or meat, keep it chilled and cook it thoroughly.

How long does cooked bread stuffing keep, and can you freeze it?

Refrigerate leftovers within two hours and use them within three to four days. Freeze baked stuffing in an airtight container for up to three months; thaw it in the fridge and reheat until steaming hot throughout.

What can you use instead of butter in bread stuffing?

Use olive oil for a dairy-free version, or sauté onion and celery in it before mixing them with the bread and stock. For a vegan stuffing, use vegetable stock and leave out any egg, sausage or other animal-based additions.

What goes well with bread stuffing?

Sage, onion and celery are classic additions, while chopped apple, chestnuts or dried cranberries bring sweetness. Serve it with roast turkey or chicken, or alongside roasted vegetables for a meat-free meal.

How is bread stuffing different from cornbread stuffing?

Bread stuffing is usually made with cubes of wheat bread and has a savoury, springy texture; cornbread stuffing uses cornbread and tends to be softer and slightly sweet. The recipe changes the nutrition, too: cornbread stuffing has 179 kcal per 100 g, compared with 195 kcal in bread stuffing.
