THE EASIEST SEITAN FOR BEGINNERS

Steps:

• Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk until combined.
• Pour in the soy sauce and vegetable broth and stir. Once a dough forms and becomes firm, begin kneading it with your hands.
• Knead for 8 minutes until it feels elastic.
• Let the seitan dough rest for 5 minutes.
• (Recommended)
• Combine the water, veggie broth, onion, and garlic cloves to a large pot. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, bring to a simmer.
• Add your seitan to the pot. The broth should cover about 3/4 of the seitan. If it doesn't, add more water.
• Simmer for 30 minutes, flip, and simmer for another 30 minutes with the lid on and slightly ajar. Check in every once in awhile to make sure the water is still high enough.
• Note: SIMMERING is important. Do not let it boil!
• TEAMING (Also pretty good)
• Put it in a steamer basket and steam for about 30 minutes. If you double this recipe or your steamer basket is very small, you might have to do two batches of steaming.
• Let it cool 5-10 minutes before you open the foil.
• Once the seitan is done, use as you wish! Use it in sandwiches, stir-frys, gravies, soups, salads, and more. This seitan will keep about 10 days in an air-tight container in the fridge. *

HOMEMADE GLUTEN OR SEITAN

Steps:

• Basic recipe for Gluten:.
• Add garlic powder and ginger to flour and stir. Mix liquids together and add to flour mixture all at once. Mix vigorously with a fork. When it forms a stiff dough, knead it 10 to 15 times.
• Let the dough rest 2 to 5 minutes, then knead it a few more times. Let it rest another 15 minutes before proceeding.
• Cut gluten into 6 to 8 pieces and stretch into thin cutlets. Simmer in broth for 30 to 60 minutes.
• Broth:.
• Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring broth to a boil. Add cutlets one at a time. Reduce heat to barely simmer when saucepan is covered. Seitan may be used, refrigerated, or frozen at this point.
