Note

To make dry bread cubes: Cube fresh bread (about 7 cups) and spread on a baking sheet. Toast in a 325ðF oven for 10 minutes until dry and crisp. Cool completely before using.

For added moisture, you can add 1/2 cup of chicken or pork broth to the dressing mixture before baking.

Ensure pork reaches an internal temperature of 145ðF (63ðC) for safe consumption, though blade steaks often benefit from longer cooking to become tender.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
