It still counts as stuffing, it just stuffs the human rather than the bird.

Stuffs into the mouth, right?

As a Swede, the word "dressing" gets confusing in context, since in Swedish "dressing" means "stuff we put on food, usually semi-liquid, like Ranch".
Dressing also means that in the US. We will refer to things as "Ranch dressing" or "Italian dressing" and it's the liquid stuff. Generally, we distinguish it by saying "thanksgiving dressing" or "cornbread dressing".
For me, dressing has always meant a vinegar, olive oil and salt emulsion that you put on salad (svenne här också)
it makes sense, like Adam said, that dressing generally has come to mean "things that you put on top/supplement of the main course", that is, a condiment. so it is natural that the term stuck to different things in different places, especially before the internet. (svenne här också)
In the Southern U.S. we typically eat "dressing" with our turkey at Thanksgiving and Christmas. (Dressing is also served on top of salad.) Dressing is baked in a separate pan and stuffing is baked inside the bird.
@@WolfeWrangle i usually say stuffing more than dressing, just based on where im from, but id add that if i were to use dressing and also my sense of how other ppl use it is that you can distinguish "salad dressing" from "turkey/thanksgiving dressing" but usually from context its p clear what you mean so u just say dressing in either context
I had never heard it called 'dressing' except in the context of my grandmother's joke "At the beginning of the meal its called dressing, midway through its filling, and by the end its stuffing."
Oh thats actually very clever
Dressing is ubiquitous in the South. It is cornbread based and mixed with heavy doses of sage, egg, and served with giblet gravy. It is NEVER cooked in the turkey.
@@chris41952 No one cooks it inside the turkey in the North either but we still call it stuffing. No reason to change the name just bc the method of cooking it evolved
@@user-tg3jl1mt4e it's not just the cooking method; it's the ingredients. Southern dressing is nothing like bread stuffing. Nothing in this video is even close.
@@chris41952 : That all depends strongly on the family- with my bunch, we commonly have two or three. As for dressing vs stuffing, the dressing likely started as a distinct thing from stuffing, with stuffing being inside the bird, and dressing being in a large pan (ideally under the bird, to catch the drippings).
Personally, i like to eat dry bread and veggies, then stuff myself into turkey. I really love that maximum flavor.
*"That maximum flavor"*
I like to feed the turkey bread and veggies and stuff myself in the turkey
"Why Alien Potato stuffs himself, instead of his turkey"
I season my cutting board, with white wine, and stuff that into my turkey, and use the drippings from that to make the best tasting gravy.
Talk about efficiency

@@rohanb2711 ROHIRRIM!!
Where r u from? In Palestine we stuff it with rice ground lamb and onion
@@lq3552 that sounds better than bread
Because of my French background, my mother and grandmother always made their stuffing with little to almost no bread. Basically it’s equal parts ground pork, veal, beef, with mirepoix, minced garlic, fresh thyme, paprika, fresh parsley for color, a blend of chicken and beef stock, Cognac, salt, pepper, and a touch of freshly made toasted bread crumb. Just enough to bind everything together with a handful of oven roasted chopped chestnuts or sometimes walnuts. My family’s stuffing is absolutely delicious! It’s nothing like the American bread stuffing and we always make as a side dish. My family and I never actually stuff the bird.
wow that sounds extremely different but also really nice , i doubt ill ever remember to come back ro this comment at an appropriate time but i would theoretically rlly like to try to make this one time
"A mass of wet bread."
Thanks Adam. That's really what makes me want to eat stuffing this Thanksgiving.
Mmmm, delicious.
My mom would mix some instant mashed potato flakes into the stuffing to give it a firmer, silkier texture. It's really good, you should try it!
Hey, moistening dry things with a combination of animal fat and water is a tried and true cooking method! That goes for bread too.
Eh, it's all going to turn into poop anyway.
I prefer drier dressing. the soggy stuff in a bird is gross
Adam, my family has an amazing Chinese-American recipe for a rice stuffing that would blow your mind. It's essentially a sticky rice stuffing with Chinese sausage, ground pork, green onions, shiitake mushrooms, water chestnuts. It's incredible with some turkey gravy over the top. Also delicious the next morning if you flatten it like a pancake, fry it up crisp in some vegetable oil, garnish with a little soy sauce. AMAZING.
THAT SOUNDS AMAZING WOAH SORRY
I can practically taste that description 😩
@@marg200039 it's honestly the best part of the meal. Bread stuffing is terrible. Rice stuffing is the best.
Edited the original comment to include ground pork.
This sounds awesome! But what is Chinese sausage?
@@rollychairs Lap Cheong, roughly pronounced "lop chong" is a dry sausage. It has a slightly sweet taste. You can buy it at any Asian grocery store.
I'm from the UK and never heard it called dressing. It's interesting knowing differences like this, even if it's quite regional even in the US.
Growing up we had stuffing every weekend with our Sunday roast dinner. We use a box mix of sage and onion. We always cooked it separately from the chicken partly because we don't always have chicken. You add water and butter to the box mix and cook it in a dish in the oven, sometimes like Christmas the stuffing would be rolled in to balls and cooked in the oven. We always have stuffing on the dry side and some times add in sausage meat to the stuffing mix, which tastes amazing.
My brother like a to add chopped walnuts that tastes great aswell.
Yourkshire puddings are also a must for a roast dinner in the UK.
Same here. As a brit its always been stuffing to me. Although I wander if this is another case of america holding onto traditional english words that the UK moved on from.
damn stuffing balls sounds nice, one time i had some left over and made waffles from it, that was also really nice
My grandma makes a stuffing with sausage and dried cranberries. I highly recommend adding cranberries to your stuffing sometime just to try it out. Who knows, you might like it.
When I was a kid, raised in the South, I always thought stuffing was made from dried bread and dressing was made from cornbread. That was the line 😂
Yeah we still call stuffing made with cornbread, "cornbread stuffing", here in the North, and in the West as well.
I make all my dressing with cornbread, and stuffing if you call it that,
I was raised in the north and I legit thought the same thing. As well as my mom and other family members.
Gottaa love a corn bread "dressing" - and I grew up in Canada.
Was just about post a very similar comment. I thought the same and I know many of my family uses this as the contrast of the two.

*"putting things inside meat is a very old practice"*
as old as mammals
So, you didn't wait until the golden sentence, "meat stuffed into other meats" at 3:08.
including meat inside meat
"stretching your meat"
"You just jam it in there and it absorbs a lot of the goodness"
"I would like for that story to be true but I have no idea if it IS true." A sentence not said often enough.
Born and raised in Mississippi. I was 25 years old the first time I ever tasted "bread dressing." My wife's family is from Michigan. My family ALWAYS made CORNBREAD dressing. That was almost 30 years ago, and as sincerely as I've tried to love the bread dressing...well...I just cannot make the transition. Dressing/stuffing made from cornbread is just massively superior TO ME in taste, texture, and that "X factor" we all associate with the things we were raised with.
I have Family in the southern states and they have cornbread stuffing. I don't like it nearly as well as the northern style.
@@LionWithTheLamb It has so much to do with how and where one is raised. I will say this, though: IMO good cornbread dressing is harder to make than good "northern style." So chances are pretty good you haven't had some of the best cornbread dressing. My mom's is extraordinary, but when one of my cousins made it I didn't like it at all. Most people underestimate how much liquid is needed so it comes out dry and bland. My mom's was always super moist and incredibly delicious.
In Sweden we have something called "dopp i grytan" at Christmas. It is also soggy bread. It's made to go, though. Basically slices of bread dipped for a few seconds in home baked ham juice.

Here in Georgia, dressing is generally describing corn bread dressing, but stuffing would still be primarily normal white bread. I've personally never heard them used interchangeably. Dressing was always corn bread dressing (basically a corn bread based stuffing made outside of the bird), and stuffing was the white bread stuff.
it's also worth noting that long ago, not everyone had an oven in their home; rather, many had to rent the use of a local oven in order to bake their holiday meal - thus, packing as much food as possible into a single dish baked in a single go would be advantageous
Adam: I just sharpened my knife, it cuts great!"
Also Adam: Bandaged finger during narration
So it would seem! :)
I genuinely thought he was gonna mention a knife sharpening sponsor but i did not expect harry’s
He actually killed the assumption because someone else made the same meme 😂
Likely scenario is he nicked himself before sharpening as dull knives are way more dangerous.
I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS REFFRENCE THERE AT THE END
To my Grandparents, who were from Tennessee, stuffing is wheat bread based and dressing is cornbread based.
This is how I think of it as well, but I was never sure if i was just a correlattiton because the only family I knew that used corn bead was from he south
I am incredibly appreciative of these videos. The personality and rationality displayed within is why I WANT to watch these.

Me a Chinese-American who has never had a traditional Thanksgiving meal: Interesting...
Turkey is overrated. Peking duck and cha siu is 10/10 for Thanksgiving.
Naw but some family friends make turkey so ive had it
I'm Russian-American. Welcome to the club!
Sameeee I always had dumplings from scratch (dad born and raised in Harbin)
@@kvnyayDefinitely. Peking duck is so much more flavorful and juicier.
Adam, you're becoming one of the best food academics on the internet. Thank you for always doing your due diligence. I really appreciate the attention to detail you adhere to.
Adams bread: doesn’t dry or rot fast
My bread: “screw you”
Great video. It explains why I was taught to put the "stuffing" in a single layer of cheesecloth in the bird. When the white meat was almost ready we pulled the stuffing out and threw it in a hot pan to finish cooking, dry out, and get a crispy crust.
Fun fact, in French this thing is called “farce” which is also the word for joke, though they might not be related. We use “farcir” to describe the action of stuffing a bird, and “fourrer” for the action of stuffing pastry. Now guess which one also means filling a body cavity? You’re right: both, because we’re Pepe le Pew.
"farce" means joke because back in the 16th century, the word was used to refer to short theatrical comedic interludes that were "stuffed" between the acts of longer dramas.
We have the term forcemeat in English, which is derived from the french farce and farcir. Swedish also has the related word färs, as in köttfärs (ground meat).
So.... literally, pardon your French?
Adam: Why am I saying stuffing and not dressing?
Me: Why do people mix things with mayo and call it a “salad”?
@@sim-nu9nf egg salad too.
With most menacing accent
"You have something against Russian Salad"
Also we have seliodka pod shuboy - basically potato salad with beetroot and herring
Mayo is just salad dressing. Oil, vinegar, a little egg. Why do you put salad dressing on your sandwich? 😆
Fries are actually salads then. Now I don’t have to worry about my health because I eat a lot of salad.
Thank you Adam I live in the UK I am doing thanksgiving for my American Girlfriend. She told US stuffing is different to UK stuffing (a lot more pork in my stuffing) . When I asked her how to make it she said she always bought the packet stuff. Thank you for a quick and easy method!
I love to use my very large roasting pan and put relatively dry stuffing mix on the bottom. The butter and bacon and all the stuff I use in my Turkey melts down and moistens it, caramelizes, and gives it an amazing flavor. I love super moist stuffing, but my mother doesn’t, so I also slightly tilt the pan by putting a bit of aluminum foil under one side. :)
I’ve lived in Louisiana my whole life and we’ve always said stuffing. That being said, your reasoning for why more people might say dressing down here sounds incredibly plausible.
Maybe that map is inverted, and the reason more people google dressing down there is because they don’t know what the hell it is, and are trying to find out?!?
I’m from KY and we usually say dressing (we never ate the in the bird version)
The Southern dialect has a lot of archaic features.
@@kokofan50 Maybe, but this is not one of them.
The moment he said the article was on the "History" Channel website, I began to doubt its veracity.
That meat that was roasting over the open flame looked really good.
Generally in Georgia what I've heard as the difference is that Stuffing is made with stale wheat bread and Dressing is made with stale cornbread. There is also some argument over stuffing in the bird vs. dressing in the pan, as you mentioned, but everyone I know who grew up here differentiates between the cornbread and wheat bread as the base ingredient. However, it is common to refer to it as "cornbread dressing" as to avoid confusion with "them yankees o'r yonder".
Great explanation Adam. I call it stuffing as well being a northerner (New York) but my mother was from South Carolina and they called it dressing. I also use both terminology interchangeably. This year I made an all herb bread stuffing/dressing from scratch; normally I mix both herb and cornbread together but this year I just wanted an all bread herb stuffing. I have been known to use both Stove Top and Peppridge Farms brands as well.
“You’re looking for ways of stretching your meat”...😐
😂😂😂😂
My oh my😂,steaching your meat! If "stuffing" gave our mothers the vapors .... Ps: Mom wouldn't have called what you made either as there was no cornbread 😂😌. Blessings from New Orleans.
Lmaoooo
A weight hanging from it works, over time.....
@@curtisthomas2670 very funny. Point well taken😂😂
Love the Pepperidge farm stuffing mix, that’s what my mom used!
Everyone probably has their own stuffing hacks. Mine: (in addition to the classic mirepoix) mushroom, diced apple, and some corn. Umami, sweetness, color, texture and deliciousness.
I love how your videos are a typically putting recipes or misconceptions on blast haha it’s glorious.
In my family, we have a mixture of bread and non-sweet cornbread as our "dressing."
My parents refused to make stuffing even though I love it. I haven't had it in over a decade and this video was hard to watch without eagerly looking for that recipe.
do it! look for a recipe! stuffing is great and every once in a while i remember i can eat it outside of holidays too and im always v glad when that happens
I never really thought about the distinction between stuffing and dressing, but I like the semantic difference - seems to me to be a useful difference.
Where I'm from in Canada, stuffing is like how you are presenting it, made with bread and either stuffed or on its own. Dressing was made a little differently and had mashed potatoes as well as summer savoury added to it and was always served on the side
As an Asian outside of America who has no idea what you guys mean every time you say those words on November, thank you for clearing things up
Thanksgiving is the day a year where we spread a lie about how the pilgrims who came to america treated the american indians, and then ignore the genocide that occurred after, and thank each other for meaningless things.
@6:17 Thank you so much Adam. Easily the most informative part of the video.
One of those topics I never knew I needed the answer to. Your thorough explanation is appreciated, good sir.
Here in Sydney, while thanksgiving has never really been a thing in my experience, I've always used "stuffing" as the noun and verb.
This video is stuffing me with information, I'm very thankful for it
A few years ago I hosted a thanks giving for a few friends, one was gluten intolerant. So I used rice (I think it was a long time ago) bread instead of normal. I don't know if its true for all non gluten breads but it was crumbly enough straight out of the bag. turned out perfect i think i used 2 eggs though
So. My parents during my childhood would make sausage stuffing and stuff it between the skin and the meat of the breast. The fat from the sausage kept the breast moist, the cavity of the bird was still open (apart from perhaps a small onion/clementine with cloves that would pretty much disintegrate within the first 20min of cooking), and the last place to reach the right temperature was the middle of the breast meat, meaning it was still juicy when it came to carving time.
Awesome explanation! I use wet fruit for stuffing, keeps things very moist, and the remnant juices are the selfish stuffing sauce!
OMG Stuffing is my FAVORITE THANKSGIVING FOOD
Adams son: hey dad what’s that
Adam:
*Yako's World song plays*
I always hated stuffing. And once I grew up and got expected to make Thanksgiving dinner. One relative wanted chestnuts in the stuffing, one wanted applesauce, one wanted sausage. So I gave up and invented a seasoned combination of brown rice, Wehani (russet colored) rice, and wild rice. Everybody loved it!
Thanks for doing research so we can be more informed about foods. I know a lot of times it's not super important but it's definitely super interesting! I've called it stuffing my whole life since I grew up in IL. I am pretty sure that was a "stuffing state" on your map, though it flashed pretty quick and I was casting it so didn't bother going back to make sure since I was too slow to catch it lol
I remember when someone at the dinner party had an allergic reaction because my mom put walnuts in the stuffing.
She didn’t use enough walnuts.

Me, a Canadian who celebrated Thanksgiving a month ago: when is this gonna end!!!
Thank you for the added information. Happy Holidays to you and Mrs. Ragusea. Kudos to your channel.
Here is my dream stuffing: homemade cornbread croutons or the ones from the Whole Foods bakery, chicken stock, turkey giblets, loads of butter, egg, chestnuts, Granny Smith apples, dried tart cherries, dried sage, thyme, black pepper, lightly caramelized onion. The chestnuts and cherries are crucial for me. The sweet stuffing with the salty bird and gravy is just a magical combo for me.

We make our stuffing(dressing) slightly dry but form them into balls about the size of a baseball, then bake the stuffing balls. This makes for a lot of nice crispy bits on these little serving sized stuffing balls. They're also great for freezing if you have leftovers.(not very often though) and they're great for slicing and putting on a turkey sandwich with a bit of cranberry sauce. 🤪

In my family, ours was always potato stuffing! Every Thanksgiving there were three potato dishes on the table. Potato stuffing from the turkey, candy sweet potatoes and then of course the masked potatoes! Yum!
As a Brit I was surprised to learn that US turkey stuffing is mostly bread based. Completely different to UK stuffing, even for turkeys at Christmas. Possible future video topic?
Most British ones also have a base of bread. Maybe it's just less so? I'm not too sure as in truth I only really use the packet stuff.
Also US dressing is often made with cornbread...that’s how I grew up
@@Oscar-vv6dn I may be biased by how my family does it, but our family recipe has very little bread in it and the Delia Smith recipe online (and does it get more British than Delia Smith? I think not) has no bread in. Possible other Brits do it differently though.
@@QuincelSC I imagine the traditional stuff has bread in it, but the more modern stuff doesn't and is quicker and just as good. Depends on the family I reckon.
@@QuincelSC My family use a Delia recipe for stuffing and the bulk is made up of stale bread and sausage meat. I was surprised by the lack of even a mention of sausage meat here
Mom’s side of the family is Eastern European. Roasted Birds get ‘stuffed’ with apples, onions, garlic, and oranges…
Sounds good, till you get to the oranges (!?!)
@@DrRiq if you've never tries oranges inside poultry, you're missing out big time. Citrus goes absolutely amazingly with turkeys and chickens
@@DrRiq Sounds good, until there is no stuffing on the table.
i always grew up with stove top stuffing from my mom on a semi-regular basis but on thanksgiving my grandmother has always made a cornbread dressing where in she cooks a big loaf of cornbread in her cast iron skillet and just crumbles all but the bottom crust (she lets my papa eat that) and the various other ingredients into a sage heavy dressing before baking it in a sheet pan. she prepares this with a "giblet" gravy made from the drippings of the turkey but without using any actual giblets, hence the quotes.
My British mum used to also make Breadsauce - which was like milky bread with butter & sage. Soooo good. I have never found a similar recipe to which she made.
Me: Can I get some stuffing?
Adam: *ASKS PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTION WHETHER STUFFING IS STUFFING OR DRESSING*
It has to just be stuffing because that is its name. If not, then why isn't it called stuffed?
Normal Thanksgiving gathering: Let's talk about politics
Adam: Let's talk about the origins of stuffing
Given he has a background in journalism, hes probably sick of politics
I would gladly talk about the history of stuffing than politics
Yeah I was going to say before you got to it, that my family growing up probably called it stuffing mostly because of the boxed "stove top stuffing". Grandma would make it from scratch at Christmas and thanksgiving, but use the box one during the rest of the year like in summer on Sunday afternoon. But on occasion we would call it dressing as well.
Terrific job! So informative. Really appreciate your research and culinary scholarship.
I literally have stuffing every Sunday cause my dad makes us roast dinner...
British life
"I don't need sleep. I need answers!!!"
My brain is full.
Love this episode. I'm a SC native and my parents and grandparents always made dressing outside the bird but it was really dense and not at all fluffy one bit. I didn't eat much as it wasn't a favorite for me....
I found the stove top stuffing and liked it then as I got into cooking found really good homemade "stuffing' recipes that were pan recipes that used homemade dried bread and veggies diced baked in a pan. The recipes called it stuffing and I do too although it's just stuffed in a pan. It's all really interesting especially since I may be going against the grain from where I grew up and live. Maybe it's all bc of the Stove-top marketing!
I know. He's so much fun to watch. Must come from a well rounded life.
Hey, remember, stuffing used to be called dressing.
Pepperidge farm remembers
We call it stuffing in the UK, but ours is actually quite different! It uses breadcrumbs so when cooked it's quite crunchy on top and very mushy, yet kinda dry. This looks a lot nicer. Sometimes we'll have stuffing with meat in which you cook in a separate dish, and we'll have pork joints / chicken / turkey with stuffing already in to buy in most if not all supermarkets, etc.
Very informative and amusing video. Happy Thanksgiving Adam!!
Adam, Here in the Southeast US, "Dressing" when prepared, is more wet than stuffing before being baked, and usually comes out a little more dense after baking. Stuffing can also have sweet ingredients like fruit, nuts and berries in some countries. Also, in the Southeast US, dressing has cornbread or biscuits mixed in along with the bread. Sometimes Giblets and Chopped Hard Boiled Eggs are added as well. However, we still say "dressing" even when it's stuffed in the bird.
Do you remember the stuffing wars? Pepperidge Farm Remembers.
After 29 years of living, this is the first I hear stuffing called dressing. Dressing is what I put on a salad. Give me that stuffing.
I rarely say stuffing. But we mostly use them interchangeably
As someone who never had turkey or stuffing, i have no idea what it tastes like
My family referred to it as dressing.
My grandmother used to call miracle whip "salad dressing", how about that.
@@rdizzy1 It does say that, last I checked, on the label.
I'm right there with you. Paxo stuffing in the UK is my go-to brand, tried making it myself and it was damn good but honestly, not good enough to be worth the hassle. Paxo still tastes amazing and is super simple.

A surprisingly good addition to stuffing, using the second pan method, drizzle a little bit of maple syrup over the top just before putting it into the oven.
