Steps:
- Blitz the tofu, soy milk, miso, Marmite, onion powder, garlic powder, 1 tsp salt and ½ tsp white pepper in a food processor until smooth.
- Tip into a bowl and add the wheat gluten and pea protein or protein powder. Mix to form a dough. Once the dough has come together, give it a really good knead, stretching and tearing for 10-15 mins. It will be ready once the dough feels springy.
- Pour the vegetable stock into a pan. Bring to a simmer. Flatten out the seitan to a thickness of 1cm and chop into chicken-breast-sized chunks. Simmer these in the stock for 20 mins, covered with a lid, then allow to cool in the stock. Ideally, do this the day before and leave to chill in the fridge. The seitan chunks can also be frozen if you wish. When you're ready to use the seitan in a recipe, pat it dry with kitchen paper then chop or tear into smaller pieces before cooking, if you like.

BEST HOMEMADE SEITAN
This seitan is eaten by vegans as a meat substitute. The flavoring for this goes well with pretty much any dish, but depending what you are using it for you can change the flavors up a bit by adding finely-chopped herbs to the mixture, or if you're making something Asian or Indian, some grated ginger wouldn't hurt.

Steps:
- Combine the vital wheat gluten flour and nutritional yeast flakes in a bowl; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the vegetable stock, 1/2 cup of soy sauce, tomato paste, garlic, lemon zest, and seasoning blend.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and stir with a firm spatula. Knead the dough until a spongy, elastic dough forms, about 3 minutes. Roll the dough into a log shape and cut it into 3 equal pieces.
- Combine 1/2 cup of soy sauce and cold water in a large pot. The simmering broth should be very cold when you add the dough to help it keep a firm texture and ensure that it doesn't break apart. Place the dough pieces in the cold broth, partially cover the pot, and bring it to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, partially cover the pot, and simmer for 1 hour, turning the dough pieces occasionally.
- Remove the pot from the heat and let the gluten cool in the broth for at least 30 minutes. To store the gluten, refrigerate, covered in the broth, in a sealed container for up to 5 days.
- If your recipe calls for seitan, cut the gluten into pieces. Add vegetable oil to a heavy skillet and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the gluten pieces and cook for 20 minutes, turning the pieces occasionally.

HOW TO MAKE SEITAN (BEEF FLAVOR)
I have purchased packages of Seitan at the health food store, but have always wondered how to make it myself. I found a great recipe from Vegan Lunch Cast and decided to try it. It is simmering in the pot at the moment, so I don't know how it tastes, but I'll bet it's better then store bought.

Steps:
- Combine the dry ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer. I used my Kitchen Aid and it worked perfectly.
- Using the paddle attachment on the mixer slowly combine the dry ingredients.
- In a smaller bowl combine the wet ingredients and mix well with a whisk.
- Stop the stand mixer and add the wet ingredients to the dry all at once and slowly incorporate the wet into the dry.
- I added about 4 more tablespoons of spelt flour to the mix as I thought it was too wet. Mix for 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes turn the dough out onto a cutting board and form it into a loaf shape and let it sit until broth comes to a boil. Turn the heat down to low at this point.
- Cut the loaf into 6 equal pieces and lower each one gently into the simmering broth and let it simmer covered for about 1 hour. Remember DO NOT LET THIS BOIL! It will create holes in your Seitan.
- The Seitan will be spongy and holes will make it even more so. You want to avoid that.
- After the hour is up remove the Seitan from the pot and place on a dish to cool. If you have room in the fridge this would be a good place to cool it down.
- Remember, it has to be thoroughly cooled before its ready. Don't be temped to dig in until it's cold.
- You can use this immediately, or store it in it's broth in the fridge for about 5 days. You can even put the big chunks in a zip lock bag and freeze.
- The Seitan can be used in place of any meat product, you can even grind it in the food processor and use it for burger if you wish.
- Another way to use this is to take a few big pieces and dip in flour, soy milk and bread crumbs and fry or bake it, then top with your favorite gravy.
- Bon Appetit!

SEITAN RECIPES: 19 MEATLESS DISHES THAT WILL MAKE YOU …
From greatist.com
- Smoky seitan kebabs with peanut sauce. No grill needed for these seitan kebabs — all you need is a working oven.
- Seitan portobello stew. If you’re too time-crunched to cook a bourguignon and too vegan to eat beef, this version of the classic French stew might be what you need.
- Ultimate vegan chili. Most of the ingredients in this long-looking list are basic pantry spices like cumin and oregano, so don’t let it scare you off.
- Teriyaki seitan bowl with mashed kabocha squash. Everyone loves a grain bowl these days, but make yours grain-free by using mashed kabocha squash instead.
- Meatless gyro wraps. Seasoned generously with chili powder, paprika, coriander, and cinnamon, the seitan in these gyros has a complexity that proves just how flavorful vegan cooking can be.
- Vegan Thai larb lettuce wraps. Ground seitan does an uncanny imitation of pork in these light but filling bundles.
- Seitan pita pockets with vegan tzatziki sauce. These Middle Eastern-inspired pita pockets resemble the popular shawarma sandwich, but instead of roasted meat, skillet-cooked seitan is tucked inside.
- Seitan tacos. Give tofu and mushrooms a break and fill your crunchy (or soft) taco shells with this mouthwatering mix of crumbled seitan instead.
- Juicy seitan burger. A really good meatless burger is hard to come by. Store-bought ones taste too processed.
- Vegan Philly cheese sandwich. As the name probably implies, there’s usually nothing vegan about a Philly cheesesteak.
HOMEMADE SEITAN RECIPE - THE SPRUCE EATS
From thespruceeats.com
- Ingredients for Homemade Seitan. 1 cup vital wheat gluten. 1/2 cup chickpea flour. 1/2 cup nutritional yeast. 1 teaspoon ground ginger. 1 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Create the Dough. To make your homemade seitan, combine the vital wheat gluten flour, chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, ground ginger, and garlic powder in a medium-sized bowl.
- Knead Dough. Once the mixture is well-combined, knead your seitan 10 to 15 times, allow it to sit for 5 minutes, and then knead a few more times. Don't skip this step, as kneading develops the gluten, a protein found in wheat, to give the final product the consistency that you want.
- Form Seitan Into Smaller Pieces. Separate your ball of gluten into three or four smaller chunks. Gently stretch each piece into a flat cutlet, around 3/4-inch thick.
- Simmer in Broth. Add the seitan to 4 to 6 cups of cold vegetable broth — don't boil the liquid first — in a large pot and bring to a slow simmer. Add extra flavor to the seitan by using extra soy sauce or tamari, fresh ginger, or sliced onion.
- Prepare Seitan or Store Until Needed. When the seitan has expanded and firmed, remove it from the broth, allow it to cool, and store until use. Seitan keeps well in the freezer in a sealed container or zip-top bag, so make a double batch and freeze for use later.
