Recipe notes
This versatile bread stuffing recipe is both savory and sweet, with robust wild boar sausage and flecks of apple. It’s a D’Artagnan classic that many staffers have served for years at the holiday. Try it alongside your holiday bird.
RECIPE Preparation
- Chop sausage into small, uniform pieces, about the size of the bread cubes. In a large sauté pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add celery and onion and cook until soft and translucent. Add the chopped sausage to the pan, and allow it to brown, stirring frequently. When the sausage is browned enough, add the apples, sage, and broth (or water). Bring to a simmer.
- Place the bread in a large mixing bowl and pour the cooked ingredients over the top. Mix thoroughly to moisten all of the bread. Test seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste. Bake in a covered casserole until completely heated through and starting to turn golden brown on top and around the edges.
