How to Make Seitan Log 3 Chick N Version

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, soy sauce, and water until a shaggy dough forms.
  2. Knead the dough vigorously for 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Add more water, a tablespoon at a time, if the dough is too dry.
  3. Shape the dough into a log approximately 8 inches long and 3 inches in diameter. Place the log in a steamer basket and steam for 45 minutes.
  4. Carefully remove the seitan log from the steamer and let it cool slightly.
  5. While the seitan cools, prepare your desired sauce or marinade (suggestions included in optional additions below).
  6. Slice the seitan into ½-inch thick rounds or crumble as desired.
  7. Add the seitan to your chosen sauce or marinade and simmer for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  8. Serve and enjoy!
