I love seitan…I keep in water bath for one hour…then I bake it in oven for 45 minutes…and freeze it for later…then I eat it with fried green peppers, mushrooms, and onion. Incredible!!
Please please please try better than bouillon paste it’s changed the fake chicken game for me!
add some wheat or chickpea flour to the recipe…try about 1/4 cup to this recipe, and don’t boil, as some of the others pointed out, it completely changes the texture.
There’s an interesting study with 3 groups, celiac, gluten intolerant and normal. All showed increase intestinal permeability.
Some people say seitan isn’t good for you, but there is really no good research to show it’s disease promoting. I usually eat seitan in places of processed meats like sausage or bacon. And as science has proven processed meats ARE disease promoting, they are a schedule 1 carcinogen. Not to mention processed meats are usually high in saturated fat, unlike seitan meat alternatives. Seitan sausage or bacon may not be “health food,” but it’s surely healthier than processed meat.
Dude’s looking like he’s gonna fall asleep any minute. Very healthy looking vegan again with his meat “substichute”.
I´ve watched a few seitan recipes of the last days, but the way YOU explained it really helped me!
The part where you explained what ingredients are vital and wich are optional was really handy since I always eyeball that shit anyway haha it also helped that you talked a bit about where to get the ingredients etcetera since they usually gloss over those very specific ingredients you´d need to make vegan recipes like these.
I have got some rashes on my back. Do you think it’s a symptom from detox?
Seitan is actually not new to human diet. I am Chinese and people here have been eating this since hundrends years, ( we have even some fermented ones that has a better texture and more delicious) for people who doesnt have intolerance i think its fine to eat and a good source for protein.
Here’s a tip too guys. Use a mixer with a bread hook. Let the machine kneed dough for TEN MINUTES. This really improves the texture and allows the dough to be more meaty in texture. ❤️��❤️��❤️
Not quite sure what “man made” means in this sense, but it’s pretty much bread dough with all the starches washed out
Good information.
How we can made wheat gluten free.
If I eat barely chapati feels light.
But eating wheat chapati feels heavy and increase weight.
How we can make wheat attached gluten free.
Do reply.����������������������������
Gluten free is a gimmick. Only 1% of the population has Ciliac disease. The rest of us can digest it just fine.
Thank you for clarifying! Saw a keto recipe that called for vital gluten. I’m gluten free
Best vegan meat substitute is Oyster Mushrooms Cluster. It tastes just like chicken when you use BBQ sauce and so on. You need to press it down in the pan with some weight on top till the water comes out, brown a bit seasoned and then throw it inside the oven with your favorite sauce. It’s delicious.
woow i just made this recipe and i think it might have been the best seitan i’ve ever made!! awesome!!!
If you guys need cheap egg replacement you can use linseed gel.. its easy to make. I made vegan saitan Schnitzel and it tasted great and I say that as a meat eater.
Everyone should read and get the truth of todays wheat by reading ” The Wheat Belly Book”.
Guys…
This is the perfect seitan recipe I’ve tried!
Im doubling it next because every member of my family had a few bites and was hoping to save some in the fridge for the next day but that didnt happen!
Though forgot the tahini and added coriander powder and used veggie stock. Oh my GOSH! so so so delicious!
Going to try it with tahini tomorrow.
His parting comment is what you should pay attention to!! Everybody’s digestive system is different!!
I don’t think eating a concentrate of gluten is a good idea.
Where did you get the protein figure from (24g protein per 100g)? I buy the seitan powder in 5kg bulk and it shows 100g is 75g of protein, as well as when you google 100g seitan.
Thank you so much for clearing that up for me. I was looking into keto breads that use yeast and they all seem to have vital wheat gluten in them. Any gluten is not keto for me. Thank also for educating me about the dangers of WGA, I hadn’t heard of that before
Let it cool all the way to fridge temp before the second cooking. Makes it a lot firmer.
I have stopped taking rotis regularly as I always use to have a bloated feeling.Now I got the reason watching this video.Thanks.
I love your videos thanks so much for them…Really. I love experimenting too. Just a thought. Check out the instant pot. 20 minutes for Seitan and done.
Adding some beans helps with the texture, for chicken style I would use Chickpeas or Great Northern. Also try not boil Seitan, steaming is the best. Also wrapping them in foil first helps a lot. Also you need to knead the Seitan for longer. Most cooks ive seen recommend about 10mins of kneading and beating it before cutting it into pieces.
Actually Wheat gluten has been documented in China since the 6th century. It was widely consumed by the Chinese as a substitute for meat, especially among adherents of Buddhism.
To what degree does the seitan dough need to be cooked? I’m thinking of forming the kneeded dough into thin strips and marinating them in some soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and garlic, for some bahn mi. Would I be able to marinate the dough, and then perhaps sauté it as opposed to baking it in water?
Yeah, but isn’t tofu made of highly processed soy as well? How is it any better after going through so many pesticides and genetic modification?
Is it me or is he looking like a cross between Thor and Jesus….I’m not that high dude lol
If you have a WinCo, Bob’s Red Mill vital wheat gluten is usually available in the bulk bins.
Thanks Aunty for ur valuable infos….I’m a teenager nd jus into cooking and ur recipes seems to so good….I’m really excited to try them out…so far I’ve subscribed to beauty vlogs mainly…ur presentation simplicity nd sincerity attracts me the most….go ahead u r a real help for all of us…just one suggestion from me is that plz add more evening snacks so that I could avoid unhealthy snacking as u mentioned above…take care nd have good health always
Always love your positive energy!! Thanks Brian for another amazing video!!
I put mine in broth and some fell apart �� why do you think it would do that? Only thing different is, I used hot water for my liquid ingredients and garbanzo flour to replace whole wheat flour. Help!
I tried making vegan meat for the first time today, I didn’t use yeast, just wheat gluten, pureed beans, water and some barbecue seasoning, boiled it for about 20 minutes and just cooked it in vegetable oil. It turned out surprisingly meat-like (well except for the taste, but it tastes great). The only problem is it was too chewie, probably should’ve boiled it for longer.
Hi, Great Info! Wow a lot to take in! Thank You!����✌❤ Sheryl
I usually mix the Seitan with a cup of chickpea flour for the texture. And the most important thing, steam your Seitan or cook it in a simmering (never on boil) broth otherwise you will get a chewy undesirable texture
Super, explained in such a way that everyone can understand, very clearly. Good luck.
My Italian grandmother said that they used to use this as a meat substitute 100 years ago because no one ate meat the way they do now or could afford it. She used to make it as chicken Parmesan. Absolutely fantastic
Why to mimic food? If you are vegan why to eat something that looks like no vegan food.
Just gonna say to anyone who who wants to try “the more you need it the better texture it will have” is not particularly true, the texture will be come tougher (and more chewy) the more you need it good for something like steak and a burger for example but maybe not the texture you want for chicken
I followed your recipe except I used a bit more gluten flour, maybe 1/8 cup more, and I added a little liquid aminos. And then instead of baking it in liquid, I simmered it in a light veggie stock on the stove top for about 40 minutes. I also did the trick mentioned here of letting the dough rest 10 minutes, then kneading more. Anyway, your recipe is delicious! Thanks!
All over this! A little more variety in my protein daily! How long does it last in the fridge?
Add a quarter cup of extra firm tofu to your wet mix without pressing it. Then add enough broth to make a cup. I also add bragg’s aminos and a little acid to hedge my bets in case I over work the dough. There is a cookbook called Vegan American Kitchen by Tamsin Noyés. That is from where I learned to make seitan. I’ve modified her versions to my personal taste, but recipes give you the confidence to do that.
What supermarkets sell seitan in UK? I shop at tesco but iv never seen it
Edit: oh never mind, you made your own lol. Thanks very simple to follow, iv always found this sort of stuff to be very intimidating to do lol
Omg I liked the video up until you said it’s not natural! There’s no chemicals in them you just wash the wheat dough and what left is gluten which is called seitan!
Vegans really miss meat. Too bad this will always be disappointing.
Very informative video, can fermentation reduce the gluten in the dough, please guide me ��
I literally just finished making me Seitan dough when I clicked on this. I do mine so different but that is the amazing thing, Seitan is SOOOO versatile!
Here is how I make mine:
Per 1 bag (250g) my dry ingredients:
Nooch, garlic powder, onion powder, old bay Cajun seasoning, black pepper, McCormick steak season (yes it is vegan) and I don’t measure any of them. I eye ball it.
Wet ingredients:
Soy milk and soy sauce and vegan Worcestershire sauce. 2 tables spoons of soy sauce. 2 table spoons of soy milk. 2 table spoons of Worcestershire sauce (it is a little salty but not over the top) and I boil them in a big pot of veggie broth.
O M G it is sooo much more cost effective and easy to make.
Im sure it is Juicy as it soaked up all the oil it was frying in
Thanks for this, it looks great! Im new to vegan and like to workout but cant eat soy, i was going crazy eating just lentils and beans for protein. This is a game changer!!
You inspired me to go ahead and finally make seitan for the first time today and I followed your recipe. It did not disappoint! Thank you!!
You can no longer find vital wheat gluten at sprouts and Trader Joe’s doesn’t sell it
Its bad if u have autoimmune conditions too..so avoidable for such people. otherwise its OK if u don’t have a health condition
You need garbanzo flour to make it less
Spongy and to taste more like chicken
But where is the science. At least for me being a diabetic, I need to know whether it is spiking my sugars. When I see these Keto friendly breads using Vital Wheat Gluten and Oat Fiber, I need to know how many net carbs I have taken into my body.
But as they say, each person needs to find out what their body can handle. But thanks for sharing your opinion.
Michael Bolton is that you? �� Sorry m8 but I just couldn’t hold it to myself ��. Thank you for the info. Keep up the good work.
3 tips, add some vinegar to cut the gluten taste, and add some chickpea ot lentil flour for a better texture.
Cook it on low heat for longer,the boiling water makes it spongy.
Simple easy and so much more tasty
lmao why do you remind me of James from end of the fucking world…
Have you watched the video recipe by Mary’s Test Kitchen? It’s called Chickwheat. I’ve made it and it is by far my favorite (recipe is actually from avocados and ale).
I have most definitely fucked up seitan. Other videos say to knead longer so it doesn’t sponge up, and I did it for like 10 mins and /still/ had a spongy loaf ��
Thanks so much for the video Brian! I’ve really been enjoying seitan lately. Will definitely try some of your recipes:)
My childhood was filled with on and off vegetarianism (guess mom wasn’t sure! LOL)… I bought some Vital Wheat Gluten out of nostalgia the other day and now I actually know what I can do with it! haha GREAT VIDEO!
why would u want a chickeny flavour as a vegan? world is gone crazy
Like he said, I get my vital wheat gluten from amazon prime! it’s pretty cheap and convenient
I don’t eat wheat, corn, or sugar that isn’t found in fruit, and would eat actual free range chicken, but I still really liked watching your video.
I have a bunch of different Seitan recipes. Seitan is the best!
Not sure if I missed it but what temp should the oven be at to bake the seitan?
I feel like Seitan making will be the death of me I MAKE IT ALL THE TIME
All I want is the PERFECT RECIPE LOL
So I’m gonna try your methods
Dude, get an INSTANT POT. Nobody’s waiting an hour for wheat meat
Thank you for this recipe, I think I might finally make this! And it’s more affordable than store bought seizable.
One of my favorite videos of your channel brother! I’m so sick of vegans demonizing vital wheat gluten as something horribly unhealthy when it’s one of the best and healthiest plant protein sources in da world! Hail seitan!
I personally am not vegan, but on god I’d become one if you were my nutricionist
Delicious! Thank you…if we can eat this way we won’t only be saving animals but our planet. It’s also much better for health to eat plant based. ����������❤️��
Just like me hanging on to that 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder lol
रोटी बनाने के लिए पहले आटा कितने घंटा पहले भिगोना health wise benificial होगा? Please बताइये
Seitan is straight gluten garbage. Maybe you’re saving a cow but you’re shredding your intestines. And spiking insulin without healthy fat ratio to all that protein. Such noble vegan martyrs. Have fun at 65 ���� The cows bless you ��
Try making seitan the washed flour method. It’s a game changer. Check out the Facebook group ‘the world of mangled brains and droopy genitalia’ ��
