🍳 Recipe Information
French Onion Stuffing
Golden caramelized onions and mushrooms are the building blocks of this vegetarian stuffing inspired by French onion soup. The onions take some time to cook, but the meltingly tender result brings rich sweetness to the dish. Mushrooms are added for their texture, and mushroom broth reinforces the stuffing with more depth. An initial steam helps soften the big mound of raw onions to make caramelizing them easier and faster. The onions can be cooked the day before (through Step 3) and refrigerated, then rewarmed before using.
Ingredients:
- 1 (1-pound) country bread loaf, cut into 1- to 1½-inch pieces
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
- 4 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola oil
- 2 cups finely chopped celery (from about 4 ribs)
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 ounces whole white mushrooms, finely chopped (1 1/4 cups)
- Salt and black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, plus 1 thyme sprig
- 4 pounds yellow onions, halved and thinly sliced (16 packed cups)
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 3 cups mushroom broth
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- Chopped chives, for garnish
Instructions:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread bread on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until very dry and light golden, about 15 minutes. Remove bread and increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter.
- Meanwhile, in a large pot with a lid, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are tender and mixture is dry, about 5 minutes. Stir in thyme leaves and transfer mixture to a large bowl.
- In the same pot, add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and melt 6 tablespoons of the butter over medium. Add onions and thyme sprig, season with salt and pepper, and stir to evenly coat in the oil and butter. Cover and cook, stirring after 5 minutes, until onions soften and reduce in volume, about 10 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and cook uncovered, stirring frequently to scrape up browned bits, until onions are very soft and deep golden, about 25 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the onions in a small bowl.
- Add wine to pot and stir until all of the liquid is absorbed, about 1 minute. Add broth and bring to a boil over high. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld; discard the thyme sprig. Remove from the heat.
- Add eggs to the mushroom mixture in the large bowl and mix well. Add the bread, then pour over the onion mixture. Season with salt and pepper, and gently toss until well combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Top with the reserved onions and dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake until stuffing is hot throughout, 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until crisp in spots, about 15 minutes longer. Garnish with chives and serve warm.

If you want to save some time, you can always throw the thinly sliced onions into a slow cooker with a couple tablespoons of butter. Let it cook on low for 10-12 hours, and you will have beautifully caramelized onions. Drain off the liquids to add to your mushroom broth.",

First, time is way off, but those of us familiar with NYT's recipe know that. Used Better Than Bouillon mushroom base. Everything else by recipe. Onions were awesome. Dressing, after coming out of the oven, is an eye rolling back into the head experience. Cooled it completely, cut into squares, vacuumed sealed it and into the freezer for Thanksgiving. Thanks so much Ms. Chun.",

I cried because I used four pounds of my precious homegrown onions. To salvage the situation, I deconstructed the leftovers with a pound of sausage with chopped sage and fennel seed -- with a small pinch of crushed red pepper. Stirred it all up and put under the broiler in a 8 X 10 pan for 10 minutes and voila! Tasted like my idea of dressing is supposed to taste like.",

The final product maybe one of the most unappetizing looking dishes that I have ever made. It was just one plate of mushroom colored brown lumps. I am quite a good cook but this was not my favorite dishes and with the amount of effort that I spent on it I was not impressed. The proof was clear when it was hardly touched at Thanksgiving.",

"description": "Golden caramelized onions and mushrooms are the building blocks of this vegetarian stuffing inspired by French onion soup. The onions take some time to cook, but the meltingly tender result brings rich sweetness to the dish. Mushrooms are added for their texture, and mushroom broth reinforces the stuffing with more depth. An initial steam helps soften the big mound of raw onions to make caramelizing them easier and faster. The onions can be cooked the day before (through Step 3) and refrigerated, then rewarmed before using.",
