While we can likely all agree that stuffing is a must on the Thanksgiving table, deciding what kind<\/em> of stuffing is where things get dicey. Top Chef<\/em> champion Kristen Kish\u2019s<\/a> family is not unlike our own \u2014\u00a0divided between white bread devotees and classic cornbread stuffing lovers. The solution was simple, but one I hadn\u2019t seen before: Instead of settling for one, the Kish family landed on a two-bread compromise. Would this be the secret to the best-ever stuffing recipe? I went into the kitchen to find out.<\/p>\n Get the recipe:<\/strong> Kish Family\u2019s Two-Bread Stuffing<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Begin by leaving hearty white sandwich bread out overnight to stale. The next day, saut\u00e9 finely chopped onions and celery until soft. Add fresh sage and grated garlic to the pan and cook just until fragrant. Transfer the softened vegetables to a mixing bowl and toss with torn pieces of cornbread and staled white bread. Add chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper, then stir until well-mixed. Slowly add chicken stock until the breads are evenly moistened. Transfer the mixture into baking dish(es), and bake until heated through and lightly browned on top.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n This stuffing recipe is simple to prepare and delivers on all of the holiday flavor I want from stuffing. The variety of textures that come from combining coarse cornbread and chewy white bread, as well as baking it until the top crisps and the interior is tender and moist, is unparalleled. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n I used prepared sweetened cornbread from my grocery store\u2019s bakery department, but you could easily make your own savory<\/a> or sweet cornbread<\/a> in advance. While any white bread will do, I used a hearty white sandwich bread and left it out overnight on a wire rack to stale slightly. Kish tears, rather than cuts, the bread so that the bread is craggy and browns nicely. While some the cornbread remains intact in large chunks, expect other bits to crumble, which helps to distribute the cornmeal texture and flavor evenly throughout the stuffing. Yellow onions, celery, sage, and parsley add flavor and texture to the dish, and since they\u2019re all finely chopped, the stuffing holds together nicely (even without an egg) and doesn\u2019t fall apart on your fork. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The sole drawback, if you can call it one, is that this recipe makes a lot<\/em> of stuffing \u2014 enough to fill a pair of 9\u00d713-inch baking dishes. This year, when most of us are expecting a smaller crowd around the holiday table, this recipe simply makes too much. Thankfully, it\u2019s easy to halve the recipe to fill a single baking dish. Alternatively, make the full recipe and split it among nearby family or friends to serve with their holiday meals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Rating:<\/strong> 9\/10<\/p>\n Have you ever made the Kish family\u2019s Two-Bread Stuffing recipe?
