This bread stuffing is packed with flavors that complement each other perfectly. Savory pieces of ham, sweet cornbread, and zesty mustard greens combine to create a harmonious bouquet of flavors. A piece of smoked pork shoulder can be used instead of ham. The stuffing is baked separately from the turkey and served as a side dish.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Preheat oven to 190°C; grease a shallow 3-quart baking dish with butter.
In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, melt 6 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the mustard greens and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the ham, thyme, and sage. Add the broth, 1 teaspoon of salt, and a few freshly ground black pepper; bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.

Whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Add the bread cubes and ham mixture and toss to distribute evenly. Transfer the filling to the prepared baking dish. Cut the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter into small cubes and spread evenly over the filling.
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake until golden brown, another 20-30 minutes.
