National Stuffing Day
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, November 21st is a good day for National Stuffing Day. Since we are already planning on Thanksgiving dinner, we are already thinking about the delectable turkey stuffing that is a staple part of Thanksgiving dinner...
Bread, vegetables, herbs, and spices are among the cooks' favorite ways to stuff the bird with crusts of bread, vegetables, herbs, and spices. Others prefer to make a similar dish alongside the turkey by using the drippings to moisten the dish. Each dish is either a personal preference or family tradition, either way. The first is referred to as a stuffing, while the latter is described as a dressing.
The common turkey stuffing includes bread cubes or crumbs mixed with onions, celery, salt, and pepper. Further spices and herbs, such as summer savory, sage, or poultry seasoning, add flavor and variety. Other recipes call for sausage, burger, tofu, oysters, egg, rice, apple, raisins, or other dried fruit.
In the Roman cookbook, Apicius "De Coquinaria," the first documented stuffing recipes appeared. This cookbook's main dish included vegetables, herbs and spices, nuts, and spelt (an old cereal). Chopped liver and other organ meat were also included in some dishes.
Some types of meat are often stuffed once deboned and making a pouch or cutting a slit in them, in addition to stuffing the body cavity of chicken and fish. A few examples of other meats that are commonly packed include pork chops, meatloaf, meatballs, chicken breast, lamb chops, and beef tenderloin.
Stuffing isn't limited to the butcher block... Vegetables make excellent containers for stuffing. Peppers, tomatoes, zucchini, and cabbage are just a few of the shapely vegetables that make stuffing a hit in your meals.
