Home Made Seitan Easy
- 1 cup vital wheat gluten
- 34 cup vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons seasoning, of choice (I use vegan powdered chicken or beef bouillon, and nori for fish flavour)
- 6 cups broth (for cooking, can add sliced onion and soy sauce for extra flavor)
- Mix flour and spices.
- In a measure cup, add soy sauce to the 3/4 cup broth.
- Add liquid to dry.
- Stir till it comes together.
- ( Add some of the broth 1 teaspoon at a time if you need to.
- ).
- Now put your large pot of broth on to boil.
- When thats taken care of, knead your ball of rubbery stuff for 10-15 minute Let rest for 5, then knead a few times more.
- Now make sure the broth on the stove is just simmering.
- A full boil will ruin the seitan.
- Cut pieces off the dough and do your best to stretch into thin patty-like cutlet shapes, -- thinner is better.
- Drop the cutlets into the broth and simmer away for an hour or two.then let the broth cool on its own.
- You can keep the seitan in its broth in the fridge for about 5 days, or freeze it.
- This can also be wizzed in a blender to make a ground meat substance.
- Serves: 5-8 cutlets.
