Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 cup vital wheat gluten
4 ½ cups vegetable broth, divided
¼ cup liquid aminos (such as Bragg®)
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
4 cups water
¼ cup tamari
Directions
Stir wheat gluten, 1/2 cup broth, liquid aminos, nutritional yeast, oil, and garlic together in a bowl until ingredients come together into a ball. Knead until dough has a rubbery texture. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces and shape into 1/2-inch-thick patties.
Combine remaining 4 cups vegetable broth, water, and tamari in a large pot; bring to a boil. Carefully lower patties into boiling broth; cover the pot and return to a boil. Set the lid slightly askew to vent steam and reduce the heat to low. Continue simmering, turning occasionally, until patties are firm, about 1 hour.
Remove from the heat and uncover the pot. Allow patties to cool in broth for 15 minutes before serving.
Cook’s Note
This recipe makes roughly one pound of seitan. You can store the seitan with the broth in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Don't discard the broth — it makes a rich soup base!
