Homemade Fresh Wheat Gluten from Kyoto
- 210 grams Bread (strong) flour
- 150 ml Water
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 tbsp Ground black sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp Matcha powder
- Place the ingredients in a bowl and mix.
- When it comes together, place onto the counter and knead.
- It will be sticky at first but be patient!
- After kneading for 10 minutes, the stickiness will disappear and will become easier to peel off your work surface.
- Place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth.
- Set in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, add water to the bowl and rinse the dough while rubbing it with your hands.
- Rub and rub.
- Do this for 20-30 minutes.
- When the water becomes cloudy, exchange it with clean water.
- I always watch TV while doing this.
- The water will quickly become cloudy at first, but as you progress, it will become and cleaner as you go.
- I change the water about 5-7 times.
- Take it out and mix in the ground black sesame seeds.
- If you are going to eat it right away, cut it (or tear) into pieces now.
- Wrap it with plastic wrap using a sushi mat and leave it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Then cut it with a knife.
- It will have some shape.
- Boil in boiling water for 2 minutes.
- When it begins to float, it's done.
- You can use it to make thick ankake
- How about some Japanese style parfaits using fresh wheat gluten?
