Steps:
- Put the wheat gluten flour in a bowl. Blitz the rest of the seitan jerky ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Pour the liquid into the wheat gluten flour and mix until fully combined.
- Knead the seitan dough for a couple of minutes, then cut in half and shape into two logs. Freeze for 30 mins, or until firm. Heat the oven to 120C/100C fan/gas ½.
- Whisk the ingredients for the jerky sauce together in a bowl until combined. Remove the seitan from the freezer and cut into thin slices. Dunk each slice into the jerky sauce, then lay on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment.
- Bake for 1 hr, turning after 30 mins. Check its progress - when done, the thicker parts of the jerky should be soft, and the thinner parts slightly crunchy. Thicker-cut slices may take another 30 mins. Leave to cool, then store in an airtight container. Will keep in the fridge for up to a week.

10 BEST VEGAN JERKY BRANDS (2021 UPD.) MEATLESS & HEALTHY

- Louisville Vegan Jerky. If vegan jerky is an accepted alternative to the famously meat-based snack [1], Louisville Vegan Jerky paved the way. They've been serving up a product that would even give the most diehard meathead something to chew on since 2012.
- Pleather Vegan Jerky. If you're after a beef jerky replacement to gnaw on, I have to say that the bold black pepper is the best bang for your buck. It’s tough, it's textured, and it's got just the right amount of spicy kick and flavor.
- Sam's Harvest Jerky. If you're here to board the chew chew express heading straight for flavor town USA, then Sam's here to be the conductor. This plant-based jerky is made from Butler Soy Curls and is liberally flavored with an authentic coating with variable spice and intensity.
- Primal Spirit Vegan Jerky. I love this jerky; if you don't love this jerky, you're a jerk. It's 10g of protein and 1000g of texture and taste that bitch slaps you across the tongue and then cuddles your tum, leaving you feeling full and content...
- Noble Jerky. This jerky comes from Thailand, and it has to be said that Asia has been making meat-free meat snacks for a long time. Tofu was the OG Impossible Burger.
- It's Jerky Y'all. I'm a big fan of this Texas-based jerky company. They make a point to list how vegan jerky is not only a valid alternative but better than beef jerky.
- Wild Joy Goods Banana Jerky. For the novelty alone, I would recommend this product. But if you're looking for a healthy snack, it doesn't come much cleaner than this.
- Su Mama Roasted Vegan Jerky Hot and Spicy. Okay, now this is one of those where it's probably vegan, but not definitely. The sugar isn't vegan certified, and there is a lot of it, 4g of it per serving, which is equal to the 4g of protein.
- Hoya Vegan Jerky Sweet & Grilled. This is another import that you can hopefully find in your local Asian supermarket but, it's a little pricey online.
- Vegan Dream Jerky. If you like your jerky to feel like you're chewing through the side of a cowboy boot this jerky is tougher than a two-dollar steak, but it's vegan, so tougher than two-dollar tofu?

8 VEGAN JERKY RECIPES YOU CAN MAKE USING YOUR AIR FRYER ...

- Smoky soy curls. Part of what makes traditional jerky a good snack is all the protein, and using soy to make a vegan version ensures you don't miss out on that front.
- Southern-style soy curls. If a smoky taste isn't your thing, try this Southern-inspired take instead, which uses nutritional yeast, Cajun seasoning, and poultry seasoning (don't let the name fool you—it's still vegan).
- Spicy Sriracha tofu jerky. Part of what makes tofu so great is that it acts as a sponge, soaking up whatever spices you cook it with, and it remains true in the jerky making process.
- Eggplant bacon. If you're looking for a vegan jerky recipe that still tastes like meat but isn't made with soy, eggplant can work just as well. The texture and crispiness is surprisingly similar to bacon—a plant-based miracle!
- Bloody Mary-flavored vegan jerky. Vegan jerky for brunch? Don't mind if I do! The soy curls are seasoned with veggie bouillon powder, celery salt, and paprika while they cook right in the air fryer.
- Vegan pepperoni. Hands down the most popular way to eat traditional jerky is in the form of pepperoni. Meat-lovers wouldn't dare to eat a pizza without it—and now vegan eaters don't have to either.
- Peach jerky. Not all jerky has to taste like meat; fruit jerky can be a refreshing snack to keep stashed in your pantry. Follow this recipe to convert peaches into a fruit roll-up-esque snack.
- Strawberry jerky. Strawberries are another fruit that taste delish in jerky form. They're made the same was as the peach ones—with the addition of a bit of lemon juice to brighten up the flavor even more.

- Use a Dehydrator or Dependable Oven. You can make vegan jerky very easily in a dehydrator or even in an oven that’s dependable with consistent heat. If your oven’s a little old or things sometimes cook unevenly or burn easily, you may not want to try making vegan jerky in it.
- Tempeh or Firm Tofu. Eskymaks/Shutterstock. Advertisement. To make vegan jerky, buy either tempeh or a block of firm tofu. Slice it very thin lengthwise to form thin strips.
- Flavor It. You’ll also need to flavor your jerky. I suggest buying mesquite powder, some chili powder, black pepper, some salt (which will help it dry out faster), and whatever seasonings you like.
- Prepare It. Gajus/Shutterstock. Soak the tempeh or firm tofu in a marinade of your flavor and let it sit overnight in the fridge in a container. The next day, pat your tempeh or firm tofu dry and then start the dehydrating process whether using a machine or the oven.
- Test Times. You’ll need to see how long it takes your jerky to completely dehydrate. It may take anywhere from six to eight hours in a dehydrator or perhaps even more.
- Store It Well. To store your jerky, I suggest putting it in plastic baggies to keep for on-the-go storage. This way, it can make the perfect snack to eat whenever you please.

- Drain soy curls and allow to cool. (You can rinse them under cold water to speed up this process.) Using a clean tea towel, a nut milk bag, or a few layers of cheesecloth, wring out as much excess liquid as possible from the curls. It helps to work in small batches.
- In a large bowl, combine soy curls with all remaining ingredients, making sure to combine well so everything is evenly saturated. Feel free to taste a piece and adjust seasonings to preference, if desired. Keep in mind that the flavors will concentrate as we dehydrate the jerky, so the finished product will taste saltier.
