Wild Rice Stuffing - turkey giblets

Method

• Boil cut up giblets and neck until tender.
• Save the water.
• Grind giblets and shredded neck meat and place in a large bowl (I use the roasting pan).
• Chop onion and celery and saute in the butter until tender.
• Add to the giblet meat.
• Break up the French bread and add the chunks to the giblets, onion and celery.
• Pour boiling water over the wild rice and drain.
• Do not skip this step.
• Add the drained wild rice to the mixture in the bowl.
• Add enough giblet water to moisten.
• Add the spices and one egg.
• Knead the mixture until well blended, adding more spices and/or giblet water as needed.
• Refrigerate overnight and stuff mixture into turkey just before ready to roast.
• May be cooked separately covered with foil for about an hour to an hour and a half in a 325 degree oven.
