Amish Dressing

Ingredients

2 good quality bread
525 gr poached chicken thighs
14 gr parsley
90 gr onions
100 gr celery
190 gr carrot
270 gr fine
2 gr rubbed sage
6 gr celery seed
2 gr thyme
1 gr black pepper
4 gr turmeric
5 eggs
350 ml evaporated milk
600 ml homemade chicken broth

Instructions

-=OR=canned broth Preheat oven to 180ºC . On 2 cookie sheets, toast the bread cubes for 15 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown. Transfer to a very large mixer bowl. Bone the chicken and very finely chop the meat, discarding the skin. (I do this in the food processor while chicken is still warm.) Add the chopped vegetables and chicken meat to the bread, along with the seasonings. Toss. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs; add the evaporated milk and broth. Pour over the bread mixture and blend. The mixture will be quite moist. Allow to stand 1 hour. Preheat oven to 180ºC . Transfer the dressing to an oiled 3 litre glass casserole that is 25 cm in diameter and 8 cm deep (at this point, dressing can be frozen for future use; thaw before baking.) Bake dressing for 2 hours, or until the center of the dressing puffs up and is golden brown on top.
