Directions: |
Directions:Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 2 1/2 inch deep restaurant style baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
Spread the rye and cornbread cubes out on rimmed baking sheets. Bake until golden and toasted, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool. Raise the oven to 375 degrees F. While the bread is in the oven, heat a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage meat, breaking it up with a spoon, then add the diced ham. When the sausage is browned, strain the grease and set the meat mixture aside for later.
Wipe the sausage grease from the skillet, over medium heat melt the butter. Add the onion, celery, carrots, and mushrooms; cook for 5 minutes then add the minced garlic. Now season with salt and pepper, and cook until the vegetables are softened and the liquid has mostly evaporated, about 10 minutes. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the toasted rye cubes, toasted cornbread cubes, cooked sausage and about 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mix this well. Taste for salt & pepper seasoning, adjust if needed.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, heavy cream, eggs, savory seeds, parsley, and caraway seeds; pour this over the bread/vegetable mixture and mix to evenly coat. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and bake, uncovered, until golden, about 30 - 35 minutes. Serve immediately or let cool, refrigerate to be warmed in the oven for later serving. To warm, you may want to pour a small amount of warm chicken stock over the top and then place in a 300 degree oven, checking often until warmed through.
