Scale

Stuffing Ingredients

  • 4 cups cubed bread
  • 2 cups sliced wild mushrooms
  • 1 leek, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced wild mushrooms and leeks. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Mix Stuffing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed bread with the sautéed mushroom and leek mixture. Pour in the broth and stir gently to moisten the bread evenly.
  3. Season and Prepare to Bake: Add the chopped fresh parsley to the bowl and mix well. Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  4. Bake the Stuffing: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden brown and the stuffing is heated through.

Notes

  • You can use either vegetable or chicken broth depending on your dietary preference.
  • For a crispier top, broil the stuffing for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • If using stale or day-old bread, it will absorb the broth better and improve texture.
  • Add nuts or dried cranberries for extra flavor and texture if desired.
  • Make sure to clean the leeks thoroughly to remove any grit or dirt.
