 additional 5 minutes.


 


 4. Strain the raisins from the apple cider, reserving the cider, and add


 the raisins to the saucepan. Stir in the bread cubes, season with the salt


 and pepper, and add the reserved cider. Bring to a boil, then lower the


 heat to simmer the stuffing, covered, for 1/2 hour, stirring after 15


 minutes. Serve hot, alongside roast Wild Turkey. Yield: 6-8 servings To
