GRANNY'S OLD-FASHIONED BREAD AND SAGE DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Melt margarine in a large nonstick skillet. Add celery and onion. Sauté until vegetables are very tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in thyme, sage, salt (optional), and pepper. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, place bread slices on a baking sheet and lightly toast on both sides, about 10 minutes per side (or you can use the toaster). Break bread into bite-size pieces. Mix in vegetable mixture and parsley. (At this point, stuffing can be made one day ahead, placed in a self-sealing container, and refrigerated.)
• In a medium saucepan, heat broth to a simmer. Place dressing mixture in a large mixing bowl. Add hot broth and stir until bread is evenly moistened, starting with 2½ cups broth and adding additional broth to reach desired consistency. Transfer mixture to a shallow baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until lightly browned, another 15 to 20 minutes.

GRANDMA SMITH'S NEW BRUNSWICK-STYLE TURKEY STUFFING

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two, then mash.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook the celery and onion in the butter until the onion has turned translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Fold into the mashed potatoes along with the savory, and allow to cool until just warm.
• Place the cooled mashed potatoes into a large bowl, and stir in the beaten egg. Gently fold in cubed bread, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Use as a stuffing for turkey, or bake in buttered loaf pans at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes.

GRANNY'S STUFFING

Steps:

• Take the giblets out of the turkey the night before (you don't have to use the heart or liver) and put them in water with onion and celery stocks, salt and pepper and whatever kind of seasoning you like. Bring the water to a boil and then let it simmer until the meat comes off the neck. Then throw out everything except the broth. Put on the stove and add water (or chicken/turkey broth College Inn) until you have enough for three to four cups of broth. Then you need to cool down broth and then refrigerate. If any fat forms you can skim it off in the morning. In the morning, put a bag of cubed Pepperidge farm seasoned stuffing in two separate bowls. Put 1 cup of giblet broth in each bowl. Put two cups of College Inn broth in each bowl and mix all together. Cut 2 lbs of hamburger meat and two pounds of sausage roll (Parks was what Granny use but if you cannot get it, I use Jimmy Dean or Habersett) While cooking break into small pieces. Put half in each bowl. I think I have sometimes added butter if it called for it on the stuffing package but it is not listed on the recipe. You then stuff the turkey but not too tightly. The rest can be put in pan and cooked at 325 for 30 minutes.
