Ingredients
- 1 baguette
- 1 cup butter, divided
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 4 stalks celery, finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsps poultry seasoning
- 3/4 cup chicken or turkey broth
- 1/2 cup Inniskillin Niagara Estate Cabernet Franc
Directions
Cut the baguette into cubes and let dry on the counter overnight.
In a large sauce pot, heat 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat.
When butter begins to “sizzle” add onion, celery, garlic. Cook for 5 minutes or until just soft.
Add poultry seasoning and remaining 3/4 cup butter.
After the butter melts, remove pot from heat and transfer the cooked vegetable mixture into large bowl. Add the bread cubes, broth, red wine. Mix together with a wooden spoon.
Place the bowl of stuffing in fridge and allow to cool completely before use.
When the stuffing mixture has cooled, stuff a 10-12 lb turkey and cook to your liking.
Alternatively, bake in a buttered casserole dish at 350°F (175°C) for 30 to 40 minutes.
