Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Minced pork
Adds richness and a moist, tender texture to the stuffing.
Egg
Binds the stuffing so it holds together during cooking.
Potato flour
Thickens the stuffing and helps retain moisture.
Red wine
Adds acidity and depth of flavour to the gravy.
Mushrooms
Contribute earthy savour and moisture to the stuffing and gravy.

The step that matters

Simmer the chicken gently. A gentle simmer cooks the stuffing through without toughening the chicken or drying it out. Boiling hard can make the meat tough and the stuffing crumbly.

Swap the nutmeg

How well each one fits the dish's main ingredients (chicken, pork, potato, flour, egg, onion, mushroom):

  1. Garlicfits better
  2. Thymefits better
  3. Marjoramfits better
  4. Nutmegthe original
