I made your cubes for the first time this past Thanksgiving and everyone LOVED them in my stuffing. I have a question. I'm cooking the cubes now but I'm not going to make the stuffing until Christmas eve night.

I am so glad you enjoyed the stuffing (bread cubes)...but your son saying your stuffing was "really good" makes my day -- I am thrilled that you were able to use the bread cubes to make YOUR traditional stuffing recipe. At the holiday time, so much of the food we eat is based on "tradition", often handed down from generations...its so much more than just about food. The fact that you were able to continue your tradition in a grain free way is outstanding! That is what it is all about. Your passing along your son's comments is all the thanks I could ever want!

I put them in tupperware-like containers. Made my traditional stuffing recipe with them and even my son said "Mom, the stuffing's really good." This was great.

I hope you enjoy it. To make it easier on Thanksgiving morning, you can make the bread cubes and oven dry them ahead of time and store them in an airtight container or Ziploc bag and just use them like you would a packages stuffing mix. I hope you enjoy your first wheat/grain free Thanksgiving. This will be my 2nd! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-17958277109264222032013-11-18T22:05:24.536-05:002013-11-18T22:05:24.536-05:00Hi Ally -- so glad everyone enjoyed it! You are ri...Hi Ally -- so glad everyone enjoyed it! You are right, it is a lot to do from start to finish on Thanksgiving along with all the other items. I would suggest, maybe up to a few days before hand making the bread cubes and toasting them until dried well...cooling completely and then sealing in a Ziploc-type bag (removing as much air as possible to keep them crisp). On the night before Thanksgiving, I usually saute my veggies (celery, onion and/or sausage, etc.) and cover it in a bowl and put in the fridge. That way on Thanksgiving morning you simply put it all together and bake it. It will make your life MUCH easier. So glad you enjoyed the stuffing -- that made my day! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-3285178964522306442013-11-18T18:51:17.520-05:002013-11-18T18:51:17.520-05:00I made your stuffing last year and didn't even...I made your stuffing last year and didn't even offer another option, and EVERYONE at the table luuuuved it!

I bet it really was better than Pepperidge Farm. I know many homemade stuffing recipes used stale or day old plain unseasoned bread, biscuits, cornbread, etc. and then seasoning was just added to the actual stuffing recipe. You are right about thoroughly drying out the bread though. It's basically crispy "croutons". These could also be dried for a longer period of time at a lower temp, too. Well...guess it is time for me to think about going to sleep for the night -- my alarm goes off in 6 hours! :-)Gourmet Girl Cookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10741830600608488811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-16988206230338613782013-11-18T00:00:06.055-05:002013-11-18T00:00:06.055-05:00Hi Tami -- I have never used these as bread crumbs...Hi Tami -- I have never used these as bread crumbs before, but you probably could. Depending on what you are trying to bread, I have used a mixture of almond flour, ground golden flax and Parmesan with herbs, spices, etc. The only thing about using these as breading would be they are already browned somewhat by baking and then drying out in the oven. If you were going to cook them very long with what you breaded them with, it might get too dark or burn more easily. Let me know if I can help you with suggesting a breading mixture for a specific food you are trying to bread. Glad you are enjoying the recipes.

How wonderful to have real stuffing again...Hi GGC,<br /><br />How wonderful to have real stuffing again! My Mom always used Pepperidge Farm herb stuffing. I love the spicing, but was never able to quite duplicate it whenever I tried making it from scratch. My Grandma made wonderful stuffing (better than Pep Farm) but, alas, her secret remains a mystery. After searching through all her cookbooks and handwritten notes, it was nowhere to be found!<br /><br />After a couple of soggy batches of from-scratch stuffing, I caught on to at least one secret, I think ... thoroughly (that is, really, really, *Really*) drying out the bread cubes, as you've indicated in your directions.CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2285523888432056855.post-7855685840122084352013-11-17T19:41:19.776-05:002013-11-17T19:41:19.776-05:00Thank you for all the wonderful recipes you post. ...Thank you for all the wonderful recipes you post.
