Seitan
From WikiDotMako
Adapted from the post-punk kitchen recipe.
Ingredients[edit]
The 2x scale for the seitan looks like:
- 2 cups gluten
- 6 Tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup broth (water + bouillon)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic pressed
- (optional) 4 Tbsp lemon juice
- (optional) beet powder
- (optional) tahini
Directions[edit]
- Mix together until a ball forms.
- Shape into 2 logs.
- If a more dense final product is desired, wrap logs in aluminum foil.
- Simmer for an hour. Flip every 15 minutes or so.
Tips[edit]
- Broth for simmering should be an approximation of a soup broth.
- Add bouillon, soy sauce, msg, dashi (or other umami boosters), peanuts t0 the broth to get it to a reasonably tasty and salty level when simmering.
- It's also possible to steam/bake in the oven.
- Wrapping in rice paper before frying makes good "skin" like texture. Recommended for things like fried chicken.
