For @fremachuca (who asked) and anyone else who wants our homemade seitan recipe that will change your vegan protein life…

(It’s pronounced “say-tan,” but I find it amusing to pronounce it “satan.”)

Dry:
3 cups gluten flour
1/2 cup nutritional yeast
1 tsp garlic granules
1 tsp onion granules

Liquid:
2 cups veggie broth
6 tbsp Bragg’s liquid aminos (or soy sauce)
1 tbsp olive oil

Simmering broth:
5 quarts veggie broth
1 cup Bragg’s or soy sauce

1. Mix the simmering broth in a crock pot
2. Mix the dry ingredients
3. Mix the liquid ingredients separately
4. Pour liquid into dry and mix together with your hands (for remnant dry ingredients around the edges, add a couple of tablespoons of water to work them in)
5. When you have a firm, spongy mass, knead it with your hands for another minute or two
6. Slice or tear chunks from the mass, and add them to the crock pot broth (for roasts you can create 3–4 total segments, for southern-fried seitan, use smaller chunks)
7. For roasts, add some big chunks of carrots and onions (optional)
8. Cook in the crock pot for a 10-hour slow cook (for larger roasts you’ll want to cook it a bit longer so the inside is cooked well)

This made enough southern-friend seitan for my family of seven.

@markwyner I usually follow the recipe on the Vegan Atlas which is pretty good as well: theveganatlas.com/homemade-seitan-recipe/
Though I imagine a 10-hour slow cook makes it taste even better.

@jesper I bet it’s good, too.

What I love about this recipe is not only the flavor, but the texture. Seitan is often flaky. The recipe I use here makes it solid and malleable. You can slice it or dice it, and it’s solid. Like tofu.
