Homemade Seitan

• 1 1/3 cups vital wheat gluten
• 1/4 cup garbanzo flour
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons herbes de provence
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 cup water
• 5 cups vegetable broth

1. In a medium bowl, combine first six ingredients. Stir in water until combined.
2. Knead dough for 5 minutes (you can do this in the bowl. No extra flour is necessary, as this stuff won't really stick).
3. Chop dough into 1-inch pieces (I tore off sections, rolled them into a log, and chopped it from there). Allow pieces to rest for a few minutes.
4. Heat broth over stove to a simmer. Add dough pieces one at a time. Cook uncovered for 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to keep them from sticking. The seitan will swell up, so you can add a little extra water or broth to keep them covered.
5. Remove from heat. Drain and fry the seitan with a little olive oil on a pan for a few minutes. Set aside until ready to use.
6. If storing, put seitan in air-tight container with enough broth to cover the pieces. Freeze.
