I’ve made this twice and it came out great both times! I throw the whole thing in a bread pan instead of making a roll because my sandwiches are square 😁

In reply to Alexa [fooduzzi.com]. So true about mushy boiled seitan! I made it (boiled) for the first time today and it was not as good as your tried and true recipe! From now on your recipe is my number one!

In reply to Angela. Interesting! Probably not. There's always a little in the bowl, but not a ton. :/ It's a weird texture, so just make sure you're mixing completely without any dry patches of flour!

Is it normal to have a ton of liquid left over in the bowl? It wouldn’t absorb most of it so I just drained it after kneading. (It ran all over the counter during this step.)

I finally tried making my own seitan just in the past year! Which is crazy since i love it and have been veg forever….
it is SO important to add a lot of flavor when making it- i had a batch i didn’t add enough seasoning to and no matter what sauce or marinade i used it was kind of blah. I really need to make it again but the whole “turn on the oven” is a dealbreaker right now since my crummy rental apartment oven does an awesome job of heating my place…. ((sigh))

And, btw, lauren toyota is like my hero! Her recipes are fantastic and I totally watch her on youtube :)

In reply to Dalida O’Connor. Oh yeah! I could imagine boiled seitan would be kind of soft and mushy. Try this version! It's seriously our fave :)
