When my grandmother passed away, I received a number of things from her estate. None were as important to me as her handwritten recipe for dressing. Not only is it the BEST dressing I've ever tasted, but it's also not too sage y...wonderful for those of us who don't adore sage. I add mushrooms and sometimes finely chopped oysters for personal preference. The shared secret recipe is written out on General Shale Brick notepaper, the company my grandfather worked for before he died.
Ingredients:
1 (14 ounce) bag pepperidge farm herb stuffing (cubed)
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1 teaspoon sage
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
4 tablespoons bacon grease or 4 tablespoons cooking oil
2 cups water
4 whole eggs
Directions:
1. In large fry pan cook celery and onions in grease or oil and water over low for about 1/2 hour.
2. Put bread, sage, salt and pepper in large bowl. Pour onion/celery mix (including liquid) over bread and mix well.
3. Beat eggs and add to bread mixture. Mix well.
4. Put dressing in greased baking dish and bake about 45 minutes in 350 oven, covered.
5. Doubles well, extremely good cold.
6. Can be made in well greased crockpot on low in about 3 hours.
