I hope
~sloum
sees this, because I have a very important question for them:
What's your fried seitan recipe!?
I *love* seitan. I *love* when it's cooked fried-chicken style (chicken-fried seitan, I suppose). I do not have a recipe for chicken-fried seitan. So ~sloum, if you see this, and if you feel like helping me out, I'd *love* to see your chicken-fried seitan recipe.
In return, I'll include here a home-made seitan recipe:
Homemade seitan
adapted from *Veganomicon*, by Isa Chandra Moskowitz
big-net link with long story
Ingredients
seitan
- 1 c vital wheat gluten flour
- 3 T nutritional yeast
- 1/2 c vegetable broth
- 1/4 c soy sauce
- 1 t olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
broth
- 4 c vegetable broth
- 4 c water
- 1/4 c soy sauce
Method
- Mix the dry ingredients for the seitan in a large bowl. Add the garlic.
- Add the wet ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon.
- Knead the dough until it's a big lump and the dough is elastic.
- Divide the dough into three equal parts with a knife and shape them into roughly round shapes.
- Add all the broth ingredients into a pot and place the seitan dough inside.
- Cover the pot and bring it to a boil, but as soon as it boils turn it down to a simmer, uncover it partially, and cook for an hour, turning the seitan occasionally.
- Turn off the heat and let the seitan sit in the pot for 15 minutes, uncovered.
- You can stir the seitan in its broth in the fridge until you're ready to use them. It'll probably last like, a week? I don't know. We usually eat them pretty fast.
