Here's an easy homemade seitan recipe for this high-protein plant-based meat alternative.

Provided by Nava Atlas

Categories     Main Dishes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons soy sauce, tamari, or Bragg Liquid Aminos
1 cup water
2 1/4 cups vital wheat gluten; I like Bob's Red Mill®
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast, optional
1 to 2 tablespoons seasoning or spice blend (good options: BBQ seasoning, jerk seasoning, vegan poultry seasoning or rub spices), optional
Water
1 large or 2 regular-sized vegetable bouillon cubes
2 tablespoons soy sauce, tamari, or Bragg Liquid Aminos
3 to 4 slices fresh ginger or a good squeeze of bottled ginger

Steps:

  • Combine the soy sauce with 1 cup of water in a small mixing bowl and stir together.
  • Combine the gluten flour, baking powder, and optional nutritional yeast and/or seasoning blend in a medium mixing bowl.
  • Gradually add the liquid to form a stiff dough, stirring with a spoon at first, and then working together with your hands. Drizzle in a little more water if need be; you want all the dry ingredients to be moistened, while making sure the dough remains stiff.
  • Turn out onto a floured board (you can use additional gluten flour for this) and knead for 2 to 3 minutes. It's not going to be completely smooth, but really work it!
  • Return the dough to one of the bowls you used, then cover with a clean tea towel. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, fill a soup pot about 2/3 full with water. Add the bouillon cubes and ginger. Start heating.
  • Once the dough has rested, divide it into two more or less equal pieces and pull into long, narrow loaves the shape of miniature French breads. This dough isn't easy to work with; it tends to spring back to whatever shape it's in, but do the best you can - it will come out fine.
  • With a sharp, serrated knife, cut each section of dough crosswise into slices no thicker than 1/2 inch.
  • When the water comes to a slow boil, gently drop in each slice of dough. Within a couple of minutes, the dough is going to puff up and look like it's threatening to escape the cooking pot! It will settle back; keep pushing the pieces down into the water. I like to reach in with kitchen sheers and cut pieces that have expanded crazily, but this is optional.
  • Simmer gently and steadily for 30 minutes. Scoop out pieces of seitan to use in recipes (usually about a third to a half of the amount made with this recipe is what you'll need for an average recipe). Set on a plate or cutting board until cool enough to handle, then cut into smaller slices or chunks.

From today.com
  • 1. Combine the flour and water in a bowl (it is always a 1:3 ratio so scale up or down depending on how much seitan you want to make). Knead the mixture until it comes together in a ball. Put the dough in a bowl of cool water for at least an hour (but no longer than 6 hours) to allow the gluten to form.
  • 2. Then it's time to rinse the starch away. Knead the dough under the water and every time it gets very cloudy, dump it out and add new water; use a colander here to ensure you don't lose any dough. The dough is ready when the water is almost clear, and the dough looks stringy. Let it rest in the colander for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • 3. Add in whatever flavoring you want: Spices, seasonings and other ingredients can all be incorporated at this stage. Stretch and knot the dough to help shape it. Allow the seitan to rest for at least 20 more minutes (or you can keep it in this stage for up to a day, if you'd like).
  • 4. When you are ready to cook, place a deep pan on medium high heat with a bit of oil. Cook the seitan for approximately 5 minutes on each side, or until it browns. Then add water or broth to cover and let it cook covered on a low simmer for approximately 2 hours (whatever liquid you cook it in will impart its flavor into the seitan, so use more or less flavoring as you'd like).
