Sage StuffingRomulo Yanes

You cant go wrong with a traditional bread stuffing, especially when its enlivened with fresh sage and celery leaves. Broad chunks of baguette, golden and crisp on top, soak up turkey stock and buttery juices from the sautéed onions and celery.

Cooks' note:

Stuffing can be assembled (but not baked) 1 day ahead and chilled (covered once cool). Bring to room temperature before baking.
