Dry Bread Stuffing Mix

Keep in a cool, dry pantry in original packaging. Typically shelf-stable for 12–18 months unopened.

Follow package instructions for liquid ratios—usually 1 cup broth per 1 cup dry mix.

Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes after adding liquid to allow bread to absorb moisture.

Customize with sautéed vegetables (celery, onion), fresh herbs, or extra seasoning.

For crisper edges, spread the hydrated stuffing in a baking dish before roasting.

Adding too much liquid, which makes stuffing mushy instead of tender.

Not letting the mixture rest after adding liquid—bread needs time to absorb moisture.

Skipping taste adjustment; many mixes are salty, so taste before adding extra salt to a recipe.
