This easy seitan recipe is the best I've ever used. I make it often to use on sandwiches and in stir-fries.
Ingredients
- 1 cup vital wheat gluten
- 4.5 cups vegetable broth , divided
- 0.25 cups liquid aminos , such as Bragg®
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 teaspoons minced garlic
- 4 cups water
- 0.25 cups tamari
Instructions
-
1
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.

Vegan Baked Polenta with Radicchio
Creamy polenta, vegan cheese blend, and flavorful radicchio meet in this vegan meal. This is an adaptation of a popular dish from the Lombardy region of Italy. It typically uses fatty cheeses and butter. This version offers all the flavor without animal fats, making it perfect for vegan diets or for anyone looking to reduce fats in their diet.
Baked Celery Root Fries
Oven-roasted celeriac sticks are a lovely accompaniment to your main dish or even alone, just for a snack. The light celery flavor goes well with a spicy homemade ketchup. I tried two different methods to achieve the crispiest fries, and this was the one that I preferred. I served it with homemade harissa ketchup.
