How to Make Homemade Cornbread Stuffing - Mixing wet stuffing ingredients

Hi, I'm Jennifer Cail and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to show you how to make delicious traditional Thanksgiving Day stuffing for your turkey. Next we're going to mix our wet ingredients together. Now it's important when making baked goods to mix up your wet ingredients and your dry ingredients separately so that they're not combining too quickly. You want to make sure especially to make sure that the egg is broken up completely before you're combining it and it can clump up with the dry ingredients. So first we're going to add two eggs, and once we start beating these eggs you want to make sure that they yolks are broken and that everything is combined so that you don't have bits of yellow and bits of clear parts of the egg. So you can see that the eggs are being beaten up quite nicely so they have a nice pale uniform yellow color throughout. Now you want to add one cup of milk. And you don't need to mix this up too long, otherwise it's going to splash if you beat it too hard. You just want to get the eggs combined with the milk. And our last ingredient that we're going to add is the fat. Now you can use either melted butter, melted shortening, melted bacon fat, if you should prefer, or you can just use canola oil. I prefer using canola oil because it's going to have less bad fat in it for you. You just want to have a quarter of a cup, or four tablespoons. And you just want to add that in and mix it up so it's combined. Now when you add the oil, it's going to want to combine initially because oil and eggs repel each other, instead of wanting to mix. So you're going to have to work a little bit to get them all combined.
