Although this delicious Thanksgiving stuffing can be cooked inside the turkey as it roasts in the oven, many people prefer to cook it in a separate ovenproof dish and serve it as a side along with the mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce.

 Advance preparations – Thanksgiving Stuffing

You need to prepare the bread the day before you are making the stuffing. You will need two baguettes. Cut the bread into small cubes and leave them overnight to dry out. If you forget to do this, don’t worry, as you can place the bread cubes on two baking sheets and pop them into the oven at 180ºC / Gas 4 for about 20 minutes to dry.
