What read do you use for stuffing?

Does it matter if it is store brand?

Any tips?

Bread?

I use a variety of breads, usually whatever I have in the fridge. Usually white bread, plus a few others like sour dough and French.

I toast them in the oven and break into cubes. I also add a bag of dried corn bread to the mix.

I use corn bread or corn bread muffins.

Doesn't really much matter--anything will work. If you want to make it easy, Whole Foods (and I assume most grocery stores) sells "bread for stuffing" in bags, already cubed. (And they charge too much for it, IMO, but darn it's convenient.)
Just throw it on a baking sheet and toast at 250 for awhile so it's good and dry.

Now that DS is gluten-free, I do it with his gluten-free bread and also I'm making a gluten-free cornbread, to do half-and-half. With Earth Balance instead of butter, it's a GF, DF stuffing.

I find that ciabatta or a very crusty bread works best. I buy good bread and let it sit out over night. I hate white bread and corn bread so I never use them and I always thought the stuffing would be mushy.

Anything will work.

We use Udi's gluten free bread now and it comes out great.

I hate corn bread. It's too griddy for stuffing IMO.

I like a mixture of three - rye, white & sourdough, etc.

I buy baguettes and let them sit a day or two, then cut in cubes.

I just use Whole Foods' pre made cornbread. Lots of onions, celery and even green apples, sage, a little poultry seasoning, s & p, an egg or two, some chicken broth. And bake it in muffin tins to make crusty-edged individual portions.

I make cornbread using the jiffy cornbread mix.

This year I am doing a mixture of corn bread, corn muffins, and white bread.

I love adding cornbread to mine but I toss in any leftover bread I have, and it always tastes great, um, except the one time I didn't realize I was using rye bread and that wasn't so good...

[Anonymous]

^^ Oops.

Agree that just about any bread with work. But I'm one of those that isn't too fond of corn bread stuffing (love corn bread, just not in stuffing). I actually like Challah or any egg bread for my stuffing.
