muchidna Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 ok they aren't that saucey, but they are quite tasty and a nice protein hithttp://puu.sh/fYzJx/31884ae90e.jpghttp://puu.sh/fYAsr/7a0f962d1c.pnghttp://puu.sh/fYAAX/e3cebca6c4.png They taste quite nice, this isn't an exact recipe, a bit of eyeballing/personal taste, but here's how i made itseiten can be rather chewy, but this one is quite tender, and still has that nice, doughy texture similar to meats, and mock meats.baked seiten is much chewier, but also quite nice. SEITEN:1 chilli1 flat tsp baking powder1 cup wheat gluten (i used a generic brand form a local market)1/4 cup chickpea flour1/4 cup nutritional yeast/savory yeast1/4 cup soy sauce1/4 cup stock of choice (liquid)1 tsp garlic + ginger1 tsp agave syrup BROTH:Ok, this is a bit of an eyeballsoy saucewatersweetner of choice (agave syrup)stock of choice first, get a large saucepan, fill 2/3rd the way with water, and add stock, and soy sauce , and sweetner (this is really up to you, i just poured it in until i was happy with the colour)and bring it to a VERY GENTLE simmer, do this first so it's at its peak simmer by the time you have prepared the seiten, and you know it wont continue heating and boil after you have added the seiten, keep note of the temperature setting to make the seiten dough, blend the ginger, garlic, agave syrup (or other sweetner), stock, soy sauce, and chilli to make it a smooth liquid put all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix the blended liquid in with it, combine thoroughly, and knead for a minute or two (this wont get super springy like regular seiten because of the chickpea flour, so just use your judgement)split into 10 balls (i weighed each one at i think 32g), and drop them into the simmering water, at this point you might want to increase the heat for a while to return it to the simmer fasterput lid on saucepan, and leave to simmer for 40 minutes pick out using tongs, and leave on something to dry OPTIONAL ADDITIONAL STEP:preheat oven to 200c (i dont recall what i used, but it was our max setting)put seiten balls in silicon cupcake tray (or a regular one, sprayed with cooking oil, may still stick a little)put seiten in oven, and let cook for 15-20 minutes, this will improve the outer skin of the seiten, and remove some excess moisture remove, cool, and enjoy maybe i will try to post a new recipe each week or something?, next time i think i will try baked seiten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
