Apple-sausage stuffing for wild turkey

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¾ cup Raisins
3 cups Sweet apple cider
1 tablespoon Butter
2 Stalks celery; sliced
1 medium Onion; peeled and diced
1 pounds Sweet fennel sausage; cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 Apples; peeled and diced
3 Leaves fresh sage; finely chopped
4 cups Day-old sourdough bread; cubed
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
¼ teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1. Combine the raisins and apple cider in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Immediately remove from the heat and set aside to plump the raisins.

2. In a large, non-reactive saucepan or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the celery and onions, and cook slowly, stirring until softened, about 6-8 minutes.

3. Add the sausage meat and continue cooking until the meat begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the diced apples and sage, and cook an additional 5 minutes.

4. Strain the raisins from the apple cider, reserving the cider, and add the raisins to the saucepan. Stir in the bread cubes, season with the salt and pepper, and add the reserved cider. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to simmer the stuffing, covered, for ½ hour, stirring after 15 minutes. Serve hot, alongside roast Wild Turkey.
