Cornbread dressing is a traditional Southern dish often served during holiday meals, particularly at Thanksgiving. It is made primarily from crumbled cornbread, which provides a slightly sweet and crumbly texture. Other common ingredients include sautéed vegetables like onions and celery, broth, and various seasonings, which enhance the flavor. This dish is typically baked in a casserole dish until golden brown and crispy on top. While it can be enjoyed on its own, many people serve it alongside roasted meats, such as turkey or ham, allowing the dressing to soak up the delicious juices.
