Yield Yields ~22 oz.

Number Of Ingredients 13

Gluten Dough:
2 cups vital wheat gluten
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/4 cups water or vegetable broth
3 Tablespoons reduced sodium tamari or shoyu (soy sauce)
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil*
Broth:
4 cups water
1/4 cup reduced-sodium tamari or shoyu
3-inch piece of kombu (a seaweed)*
4 slices of ginger*
Optional

Steps:

  • Gluten dough: Combine all dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Combine all liquids and add to the dry mixture; mix with a fork until the dough reaches a kneadable consistency. Knead a couple of dozen times, then let the dough rest 3-5 minutes. Wet hands (to prevent gluten from sticking) and knead another dozen times, then let the dough rest another 10 minutes. While waiting, prepare broth (below). Wet hands and a knife; cut gluten into 6-8 pieces and pull into thin strips. Simmer in broth for 45-60 minutes. Broth: Combine all ingredients in a large pot with a lid. Bring broth to a boil, add gluten dough pieces, reduce to a simmer and cover. Check occasionally and add more water if needed.

The seitan was a bit too chewy for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try using less vital wheat gluten next time.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out well. The seitan was tough and bland. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I'll try a different recipe next time.

Made the seitan last night and it turned out great! I used a food processor to grind the vital wheat gluten, which made the process much easier. The seitan had a nice chewy texture and a slightly nutty flavor. I used it in a stir-fry with vegetables
