Celery Walnut Loaf Recipes

CELEBRITY WALNUT LOAF

Steps:

• Toast the bread slices either in the toaster or on a baking sheet placed under the broiler.
• Let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Generously butter a 9 by 5-inch loaf pan, then line the bottom with waxed paper and butter the paper.
• Tear up the toasted bread slices and make crumbs out of them in a food processor.
• Place in a large bowl.
• Process the walnuts until finely ground and mix into the bread crumbs.
• Combine the eggs and onions in the processor and process until fine but not liquefied.
• Stir into the bread crumbs.
• Place the green pepper, celery, parsley, tomatoes, and oil in the processor and grind until fine but still with some texture.
• Stir into the loaf mixture along with the poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper.
• Mix this all very well until evenly moistened.
• (The mixture may be prepared to this point and refrigerated up to 8 hours in advance.) Scrape it into the prepared loaf pan and smooth over the top.
• Cover the loaf with foil.
• Bake 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out dry.
• Let sit 5 minutes, then run a knife all along the sides of the loaf to help loosen it.
• Unmold the loaf onto a platter and remove the waxed paper.
• Let the loaf cool 20 minutes or so before slicing it.
• It's best to serve the loaf warm and the gravy hot.
• Mushroom gravy: Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat.
• Add the mushrooms and saute until brown, about 7 minutes.
• Stir in the flour; it will become very pasty.
• Cook this roux for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• It will stick to the bottom of the pan a little bit; that's okay.
• Stir in the stock, wine, soy sauce, and pepper, and bring to a boil.
• Cook the sauce at a bubbling simmer for 5 minutes, stirring almost constantly and scraping any crusty bits that stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Serve in a pretty gravyboat.
