Corn Bread Dressing Terrine With Bacon And Sage Recipes

CORNBREAD-BACON STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 3-quart baking dish. Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, about 7 minutes. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until very soft and caramelized, about 20 minutes. Add the celery, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the celery is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat and set aside.
• Whisk the eggs, parsley and scallions in a large bowl. Add the cornbread and potato bread cubes, the pecans and the vegetable mixture; stir to combine. Transfer the stuffing to the prepared baking dish. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons butter into cubes and dot over the stuffing. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes, then uncover and bake until golden brown, about 20 more minutes.

NO-BAKE SAUSAGE AND CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• In a large saute pan on low heat, add the ground spicy pork sausage and cook slowly to render out the fat, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, fennel seed and celery salt. Once the fat is rendered and the meat starts to brown and crisp, add the carrots, celery, chestnuts, fennel, onions, garlic and sage. Cook until the meat continues to brown, the carrots become soft and tender and the onions become translucent, about 10 minutes.
• Add the crumbled cornbread and chicken stock and stir until completely incorporated and the bread is moist. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the parsley.
• Serve family style in a large bowl while still hot.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch cast-iron pan with butter.
• Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the buttermilk, whole milk, oil and egg until smooth.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick is smooth when tested, about 25 minutes.

CORNBREAD AND BACON STUFFING (DRESSING)B

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Saute the onions and celery in the bacon drippings, until soft but not browned.
• Let cool slightly.
• Toss the cornbread, bread, bacon, poultry seasoning, parsley, salt and pepper until mixed well.
• Add the cooked celery and onions and toss to mix well.
• Add the eggs and 1 cup of the chicken broth and stir to moisten, adding as much broth as needed.
• (Everytime is going to be different.) This is a personal taste decision.
• I like my dressing moist so I add broth until I have a very wet mixture.
• Any type pan will work for baking.
• I generally use a 8 x 8 disposable pan, but if I am making a double batch I use a 9 x 13 pan.
• Bake for 30 min, uncovered, or until golden on top.
• This is enough to stuff an 8 to 10 lb turkey, if you so desired.
• **NOTE**I have made this several times for vegetarian dinners, omitting the bacon, drippings and chicken broth and substituting with either butter, or olive oil and vegetable broth with great success.
• ALSO--If you save leftover pieces of cornbread/bread heels in a ziploc bag in your freezer, you will have half the work already done when your ready to make this.
