dressing for turkey day

I make two, Everyone loves sweet sausage and cortland apple dressing, and a corn bread,leek and chanterell dressing for the more daring

I prefer savory dressings to those with fruit, and have tasted many versions over the years. But my all-time fave is my mom's, made with dried bread cubes, diced celery and onion, chopped mushrooms, chicken or turkey broth, s/p, plenty of poultry seasoning and great big dollops of schmaltz.

Fat free schmaltz??? Oy, gevalt. I've heard of cholesterol-free "schmaltz", and it isn't bad. I recall it's vegetable oil, margarine (to keep it pareve- neither meat nor dairy), and onion, simmered until the onions become dark. I have the recipe somewhere, but it lacks the cachet of being a 'dangerous', forbidden food somehow!
