EASY HOMEMADE SEITAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine the soy sauce with 1 cup of water in a small mixing bowl and stir together.
• Combine the gluten flour, baking powder, and optional nutritional yeast and/or seasoning blend in a medium mixing bowl.
• Gradually add the liquid to form a stiff dough, stirring with a spoon at first, and then working together with your hands. Drizzle in a little more water if need be; you want all the dry ingredients to be moistened, while making sure the dough remains stiff.
• Turn out onto a floured board (you can use additional gluten flour for this) and knead for 2 to 3 minutes. It's not going to be completely smooth, but really work it!
• Return the dough to one of the bowls you used, then cover with a clean tea towel. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a soup pot about 2/3 full with water. Add the bouillon cubes and ginger. Start heating.
• Once the dough has rested, divide it into two more or less equal pieces and pull into long, narrow loaves the shape of miniature French breads. This dough isn't easy to work with; it tends to spring back to whatever shape it's in, but do the best you can - it will come out fine.
• With a sharp, serrated knife, cut each section of dough crosswise into slices no thicker than 1/2 inch.
• When the water comes to a slow boil, gently drop in each slice of dough. Within a couple of minutes, the dough is going to puff up and look like it's threatening to escape the cooking pot! It will settle back; keep pushing the pieces down into the water. I like to reach in with kitchen sheers and cut pieces that have expanded crazily, but this is optional.
• Simmer gently and steadily for 30 minutes. Scoop out pieces of seitan to use in recipes (usually about a third to a half of the amount made with this recipe is what you'll need for an average recipe). Set on a plate or cutting board until cool enough to handle, then cut into smaller slices or chunks.

BASIC SEITAN - WHEAT MEAT (VEGAN MEAT SUBSTITUTE)

Steps:

• Stir vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, 1/2 cup vegetable broth, liquid amino acid, olive oil, and garlic in a bowl until ingredients come together into a ball. Knead ball until dough has a rubbery texture. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces and shape into 1/2-inch thick patties.
• Bring 4 cups vegetable broth, water, and tamari to a boil in a large pot. Carefully place patties into boiling broth; cover pot and return to a boil. Set lid slightly askew to vent steam and reduce heat to low. Continue simmering patties until firm, turning patties occasionally, about 1 hour. Remove pot from heat and set lid aside. Allow patties to cool in broth for 15 minutes before serving.

EASY BAKED SEITAN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir.
• Once all the dry ingredients are mixed in, knead the dough with your hands for several minutes until thoroughly mixed.
• Then, roll the dough into a log and cut it into 1/2 inch slices.
• Place each of the slices on a lightly greased baking sheet and spread the dough with your fingers to thin them. Bake on a low oven rack for 10 minutes.
• Flip the seitan strips and bake on the other side for five minutes.
• Once finished, dip them in ketchup or BBQ sauce, stuff them in a pita pocket as a sandwich, toss them into tacos or fajitas, or add them to your favorite salad or pasta. You can do almost anything with the as you would chicken strips.
