Recipe
Directions
1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and
celery; cook 3 to 5 minutes, until soft. Transfer to a large bowl; stir
in bread, salt, pepper and sage.
2. Drain oysters through a large strainer over a 1 quart glass measure;
transfer oysters to a bowl. Strain oyster liquid through a fine sieve
into a separate bowl; set aside. Rinse oysters under cold running water
to remove any sand or shells, then coarsely chop. Add oysters to bowl
with bread mixture.
3. Gently stir in oyster liquid, milk and egg, stirring just until all
ingredients are combined.
4. To stuff turkey: Proceed as directed for The Perfect Turkey.
To bake: Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Spoon stuffing into a well-buttered
13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes.
Makes 15 (1/2-cup) servings.
