Tips
- Chef’s Tip - If you plan to use this stuffing inside a turkey, let the stuffing cool completely before spooning it into the turkey cavity. This helps prevent the stuffing from becoming overly mushy and also ensures even cooking. Additionally, loosely pack the stuffing inside the cavity to allow air circulation, which helps the stuffing cook thoroughly and safely.For food safety, it's important to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the stuffing inside the turkey. It should reach 165°F to ensure it's fully cooked.
