What’s the difference between stuffing and dressing?<\/h2>\n

While these terms are often used interchangeably in conversation, they do actually describe different variations of the same recipe. And it turns out, many stuffing recipes<\/a> are actually dressings. The primary distinction is that stuffing is typically baked inside the cavity of a bird, whereas dressing is baked in a baking dish with extra broth for moisture. Regardless of the cooking method used, colloquially, you’ll often hear “dressing” used more often in the southern United States and “stuffing” used in most other regions of the country.<\/p>\n
