  *Tip: To make dry bread for stuffing, preheat oven to 3ooF. Cut fresh
  bread into 1/2-inch cubes. (You'll need 18 to 21 slices of bread to make
  12 cups of dry cubes.) Spread cubes in a large shallow roasting pan. Bake
  for 10 to i5 minutes or until bread cubes are dry, stirring twice; cool.
  (Bread will continue to dry and crisp as it cools.)
