Bob's Red Mill Vital Wheat Gluten, 20 oz

Bob's Red Mill Vital Wheat Gluten, 20 oz

When combined with water it becomes highly elastic. Added to bread dough, it helps retain the gas and steam from baking and gives more volume to the baked bread.

Bake bread with a lighter crumb and greater volume by adding vital wheat gluten! Especially helpful for bread made with whole grain flours, it's also the essential ingredient for seitan, a vegan meat substitute.

Recipe

Seitan
This versatile vegan meat replacement can be seared, grilled or fried!
1 3/4 cups Bob's Red Mill® Vital Wheat Gluten
1/3 cup Bob's Red Mill® Nutritional Yeast
2 tsp garlic granules
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 crushed fennel
1/2 tsp turmeric
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp molasses
1 tsp tahini
1 1/2 tbsp Oil
1 1/2 cups mushroom or vegetable broth

In a medium bowl, whisk wheat gluten, nutritional yeast and dry spices. In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients and stir until smooth. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture, using a fork to bring dough together (it will be lumpy and springy).
Pour dough onto an 18-inch-long sheet of aluminum foil or parchment paper and wrap like a burrito, forming a log.
Bring 4-6 cups water to a rolling boil in a medium pot, and place a tight-fitting steamer basket inside. Add seitan, still wrapped in foil or parchment, cover with the pot lid and steam for 80 minutes. Do not remove lid. Let seitan cool for 30 minutes before cutting into slices or chunks. Enjoy as-is, or sear on the stovetop.
Makes 1 large loaf.

Store in a cool, dry place.
