Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup minced onion
  • 2 cups diced celery, with leaves
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 4 quarts bread cubes
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon sage
  • 1 pinch dried thyme
  • 1 pinch dried marjoram

Method

  • Melt butter in saucepan. Saute onion in melted butter until soft, but not brown. Add celery and stir well. Add 2 cups chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Place bread cubes into large mixing bowl. Add eggs, salt, pepper, sage, thyme, and marjoram. Add onion-celery mixture; combine thoroughly. If still too dry, add more chicken broth. Makes enough to stuff a 10 to 15 pound turkey.
