2 . Cheesy Pizza Stuffing
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Time: 45 minutes, plus drying bread
Ingredients:
• 1 (12-to 14-ounce) loaf brioche (黄油面包), torn into bite-size pieces (about 4 cups)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more softened butter
• 1 large yellow onion
• Salt and black pepper and 2 tablespoons tomato sauce
• 1 large egg and 1 cup whole milk
• 2 cups shredded low-moisture mozzarella (马苏里拉奶酪)
Directions:
The night before serving, spread the bread pieces on a sheet pan and let sit on the counter to dry out. Alternatively, you can bake them at 250 degrees until completely dried out and no longer soft, 20 to 30 minutes.
When ready to make the stuffing, transfer the bread to a large bowl. Heat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9-by-13-inch or 8-by-11-inch baking dish with softened butter. Melt the 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high and add the thinly sliced onion. Season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly browned at the edges, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato sauce and cook until fragrant, about I minute.
In a medium bowl, beat the egg with a fork, then beat in the milk. Pour the milk mixture over the bread and toss with two spoons until evenly coated. Add 1 cup mozzarella and toss again until well combined. Let sit until the bread fully absorbs the liquid, about 5 minutes.
Transfer the stuffing and any accumulated liquid to the greased baking dish, spread out evenly and top with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella. (To make ahead, you can stop at this stage, cover the dish and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Bake, uncovered, until heated through and the cheese is melted, 15 to 25 minutes. (You may need to add a few minutes to the bake time if the stuffing has been refrigerated.)
