Step 1

Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk until combined.

Step 2

Pour in the soy sauce and vegetable broth and stir. Once a dough forms and becomes firm, begin kneading it with your hands.

Step 3

Knead for 8 minutes until it feels elastic.

Step 4

Let the seitan dough rest for 5 minutes.

Step 5

(Recommended)

Step 6

Combine the water, veggie broth, onion, and garlic cloves to a large pot. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, bring to a simmer.

Step 7

Add your seitan to the pot. The broth should cover about 3/4 of the seitan. If it doesn’t, add more water.

Step 8

Simmer for 30 minutes, flip, and simmer for another 30 minutes with the lid on and slightly ajar. Check in every once in awhile to make sure the water is still high enough.

Step 9

Note: SIMMERING is important. Do not let it boil!

Step 10

TEAMING (Also pretty good)

Step 11

Put it in a steamer basket and steam for about 30 minutes. If you double this recipe or your steamer basket is very small, you might have to do two batches of steaming.

Step 12

Let it cool 5-10 minutes before you open the foil.

Step 13

Once the seitan is done, use as you wish! Use it in sandwiches, stir-frys, gravies, soups, salads, and more. This seitan will keep about 10 days in an air-tight container in the fridge. *
