MOMMA'S CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Prepare cornbread according to directions on package. Cool and crumble. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine the crumbled corn bread, onion, garlic, celery and eggs. Gently stir. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and sage.
• Add the chicken and turkey broth 1 cup at a time until the cornbread becomes moist but not wet.

CORNBREAD DRESSING

Steps:

• The day before making the stuffing, bake the cornbread: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Melt 2 tablespoons shortening in a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, milk and egg until combined. Slowly incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring until combined. Melt the remaining 1/4 cup shortening in the microwave and add to the batter, stirring constantly. Pour the batter into the hot skillet, smoothing the surface with a rubber spatula. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let the cornbread cool in the skillet, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
• Spread the cornbread and French bread cubes on 2 baking sheets and let dry at room temperature, uncovered, until totally crisp, about 24 hours. Transfer to a large bowl and toss to mix them up a bit.
• Make the stuffing: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the celery, carrots and onion and cook until the onion is almost translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and add the rosemary, thyme, sage and turmeric. Gradually ladle the broth mixture into the bowl with the bread, tossing gently. Taste as you go and add salt carefully. If the mixture is not moist enough, add a bit more chicken broth. Stir in the parsley.
• Transfer the mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

MOMMA'S MEATLESS CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Heat oven as directed for cornbread.
• Combine cornbread mix, eggs, and milk in a bowl until well blended. Bake in a roasting pan as directed, about 25-30 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Chop onion and celery while cornbread is cooking.
• When the cornbread is cooled, crumble it and stir in celery and onions. Add salt, pepper and sage to taste, making it a TINY BIT stronger than you would like, because the chicken broth will water it down a bit and mute the spiciness. (We usually start with about 2 T of each, and maybe 1 T more of sage, because everyone ion my family loves it)
• Pour chicken broth evenly over cornbread mixture, and stir till every last bit is wet. You may need to add more or less chicken broth to suit your palate.
• Smooth top of stuffing with a spatula, and bake for about 20 minutes at 350 degrees, until top is lightly browned.
