Cooks' notes:

·Rice can be cooked 2 days ahead and cooled, uncovered, then chilled, covered.
·Instead of drying bread cubes in oven, they can be spread in a shallow baking pan and dried, uncovered, at room temperature 1 day.
·Stuffing can be assembled (without drizzling with stock and melted butter), but not baked, 1 day ahead and cooled, uncovered, then chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before proceeding.
