With at least one discussion already begun about Thanksgiving, I thought I'd post this now. This one is TnT and it's been a hit every time I've served it. This is the only stuffing recipe I've ever tried that is truly delicious made outside of the bird. It's rated as moderately difficult, but I didn't find it that hard, just a bit time consuming. For me most of the "wild" mushrooms are porcini because they are more affordable and more easily available, and I love the earthy flavor. I also go about half farm raised button, cremini and portobello and half wild, but that's mostly a matter of price and availability too.
It's not dietetic, but then this is Thanksgiving!

4 medium shallots, finely chopped
4 large garlic cloves, minced
2 large celery ribs, finely chopped

Salt and freshly ground pepper
