cornbread dressing

Thanksgiving side dish

Cornbread dressing is a savory dish made from crumbled cornbread mixed with aromatics, broth, and seasonings, then baked until set.

A staple of Southern American cooking, it appears alongside turkey at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Unlike stuffing, which is cooked inside the bird, dressing is baked separately in a pan: Grandma's cornbread dressing is the best part of the meal.
