Well, I love it!

I love bread sauce. It’s my favourite aspect of Xmas dinner and then cold in turkey sandwiches

i make it every year from scratch. i use the recipe from the dairy diary cookbook which i've had for many many years but i add more breadcrumbs as i don't like a thin sauce.
i also make my own cranberry sauce from scratch with a "spot" of port in it.
but i've never attempted making stuffing. this year i'
ve bought a packet of chestnut and cranberry stuffing - thank you paxo.

I make what we in Norfolk call forcemeat balls from sausagemeat, seasoning, finely chopped onion, fresh chopped parsley, fresh breadcrumbs, 1 egg. They are the first things to disappear off the plates as everyone loves them and they are delicious cold too.

I've got to 68 and never tried it.

I've also always made mine from scratch, I don't like it too thin, but there are only two of us in our family who will eat it. However I can't eat gluten now and found that breadcrumbs from GF bread just didn't work, so I've settled for the ready-made M&S gluten free version which is acceptable if not perfect.

This looks like a good way to make it.

No, not a fan. We have made it slavishly every year because it was my sister's task. But we aren't making it this year because no-one wants it.

We love it, homemade. Infusion of whole fat milk, cloves in the onion, rosemary sprig, all removed before freezing. Then to add a little double cream and nutmeg just before serving. Have made a ‘bucket full’ to cater for 15 !

Couldn’t eat turkey without bread sauce! It is from a packet though. 🤭

Ditto.. I actually prefer the packeted versions! ❤️

I like it, but I don't like turkey.

Love it and make my own with gluten free breadcrumbs. My innovations include cardamom as well as nutmeg and cloves, and I blend the onion into the spice infused milk before adding the bread. Cream and butter are non-negotiable.

Infused milk with finely chopped onion peppercorns and bay leaf and mace. I include the crust in the breadcrumbs,started by accident but now on purpose. Love it.

Home made bread sauce is lovely. I like to have just a little bit of "crunch" to the chopped onions

I don't eat poultry so I've never had bread sauce served the "traditional" way but I was once offered it with baked gammon. Ohh, yeuk! It looked disgusting and tasted worse. Never again!

I dont see the point of it.Gravy..yes.But cant bear it!!!

Never had it. Not on our Christmas radar.

Must have bread sauce with poultry. 😆

Boil onion in milk and salt and pepper, cloves if desired. Add breadcrumbs and shredded suet
if available. Mix together and it’s the best ever. Love it.
