SOUTHERN CORN BREAD DRESSING 
3 c. crumbled corn bread
1 onion, chopped fine
2 to 3 eggs
1/4 c. finely chopped celery
2 to 2 1/2 c. crumbled dry bread (use day old light bread)
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tbsp. salt
4 to 5 c. turkey or chicken stock
1/2 tbsp. sage or poultry seasoning
1/2 c. melted butter

Preheat oven to 425°F. Mix bread. Add raw eggs and other ingredients. Mix well. Have dressing soft, about consistency of cake batter or thick soup (really soupy). (This is secret to good dressing; it will cook dry.) This°F of consistency was the hardest for me to learn.

Bake in greased baking dish, 13 x 9 1/2-inches for about 40 minutes.

Serves 10 to 12.

If you wish, you may stuff your bird with this dressing. If bird is stuffed, allow 5 minutes more cooking per pound.
