    Corn Bread Stuffing #2


    Source of Recipe


    James Beard, House & Garden (1965) modified by A. Lowry

    Recipe Introduction


    Angela states she uses much less margarine and moisten with fat-free broth for a modern interpretation.

    List of Ingredients




    1/4 pound (or more) GFCF maragrine
    1 1/4 cups finely chopped onion
    1 cup finely diced celery
    1/2 cup chopped celery tops
    1 1/2 teaspoons thyme
    1 pound small link sausages lightly browned
    1 tablespoon salt or more, to taste
    1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
    6-8 cups coarse corn bread crumbs
    3/4 cup Madeira (optional)

    Recipe



    Melt the margarine in a saucepan with the chopped onion. Add
    the celery, celery tops, and thyme.

    Saut� the sausages gently or broil them.

    Add the salt and pepper to the crumbs and mix with the onion-celery mixture, the sausages, and the Madeira.

    Add more melted margarine or some of the rendered sausage fat, if needed. Taste for seasonings.

    Stuff the turkey lightly.

    Variations:

    1. Omit sausages and add 1 cup whole kernel corn and 1/2 cup
    finely chopped green chiles (or 1 cup, if you like the taste of chiles). Substitute 1/2 cup cognac for the Madeira.

    2. Omit sausages. Saut� 1/2 pound sausage meat with the
    onions, breaking it up well. Add to the stuffing with 1 cup pecans.

    3. Omit sausages. Add 1 1/2 cups finely shredded ham to the
    stuffing. Saut� the onions in ham fat instead of margarine.

    4. Omit sausages. Add 2 cups crisp crumbled bacon to the
    stuffing. Saut� onions in bacon fat.

    5. Omit sausages and celery. Add 2 cups coarsely chopped ham
    and 2 cups coarsely chopped roasted and salted or toasted and salted filberts.

    6. If you like oysters in a stuffing, add about 2 dozen
    oysters with their liquor.
