"beefy" Seitan Log

Total Time: 1 hr 34 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 1 hr 19 mins

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups vital wheat gluten
• 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 cup mushroom stock
• 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetarian worcestershire sauce

Recipe

• 1 preheat the oven to 325°f.
• 2 mix together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. mix together the liquid ingredients in a smaller bowl, then stir them into the dry ingredients until completely blended. knead the dough in the bowl for a couple minutes, then place on a sheet of foil and shape into a log about 6 to 8 inches long. wrap the foil tightly around the log and twist the ends.
• 3 bake for 80 minutes (this will be firm with a slightly crispy outside -- if you like your seitan a little "spongy", maybe bake for 60 to 70 minutes).
• 4 slice or chop as desired, and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator or freezer.
