bread stuffing

Cavity filling mixture

Bread stuffing is a savory mixture of cubed or crumbled bread combined with aromatics, herbs, and stock, used to fill the cavity of poultry or served as a side dish.

In American cuisine, it's closely associated with Thanksgiving turkey.

When cooked outside the bird, it's often called dressing: The bread stuffing was moist and herby.
