This is made with hard wheat flour. It might be easier for some to find. I hold no promises I have not made this yet. The
broth is simply soy sauce. It is from Eden foods at http://www.edenfoods.com
SERVES 5
2 lbs whole wheat flour, see note
1 3/4 cups water
1 quart water
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1. Note: Use organic hard red spring or winter flour for this recipe. Before you ask NO do NOT sub any other flour.
This recipe is designed for this flour.
2. Mix the flour and 1 3/4 cup water to form a firm dough. Knead for 3 to 5 minutes then cover with cold water and
let sit 5 to 10 minutes.
3. Knead the dough in the water gently until water is milky. Pour off. Cover with warm water. Knead until milky.
4. Repeat draining and adding cold then warm until water is clear. You should have a spongy mass. This is your wheat
gluten.
5. Now you have to prepare it. Bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Place gluten in boing water and boil for 5 minutes.
Do not cover. Reduce temp and add the soy sauce [or other broth ingredients].
6. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium low and simmer 25 to 30 minutes. It should be brown, soft, tender and
salty with this broth. It is Seitan.
