By mariley

Ingredients

• 12 cups bread cubed
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup minced onion
• 1 1/2 cups chopped celery, stalks and leaves
• 2 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. pepper
• 1 tsp. ground sage

Preparation

Step 1

In a large, heavy skillet over medium high heat melt the butter, then sauté the onion and celery until the onion is soft, stirring occasionally.

Stir in salt, pepper, and sage and cook for an additional 3 minutes.

Place the bread cubes into a large, deep bowl.

Pour 1/4 cup of the butter/celery mixture over the cubes and toss well, then repeat the steps until all of the butter mixture is used.

Toss the cubes thoroughly to coat.

(Regarding the optional chicken broth; for dry stuffing, add little or no liquid; for moist stuffing mix in lightly with fork just enough chicken broth to moisten dry crumbs) Let cool and use as stuffing for the turkey.

This has also been made in the crockpot, as well, adding the chicken broth for moistness.
