Dressing or Stuffing?

Dressing or Stuffing?

What’s a Thanksgiving dinner without dressing or as some say “stuffing”? Whether you bake your dressing on the side or cook your stuffing in the bird, it’s a holiday essential!

This Thanksgiving staple can take many forms and ingredients. Sometimes it can be firm and bready other times it can be moist and tender.

But at Better Halves Pecans, we all agree every recipe should include – you got it – PECANS!

Essentially, Thanksgiving Dressing is a mixture of (stale) bread, herbs, and spices, and sometimes oysters or meat, held together with eggs.

Think of it as savory bread pudding where you can get creative with customizing your ingredients.

You can start with rolls (like sourdough or a baguette), other breads or with OUR Southern favorite: savory (never sweet!) cornbread.

Once you have the basic structure, stuffing is easily adapted to your tastes.

That’s what we love about this delightful Thanksgiving staple…you can easily come up with a combination of ingredients you’ll want to prepare for holidays to come.
