Guest guest Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 Hi all I see where you guys are making the seitan in the bread machine how is that done. I did it by hand once and did all of this rinsing and kneading gee it took me a long time but it worked. Easier to buy it though let me know how you do it in the bread machine. I would love to do that and make my own. Linda May the sun bring you new strength by day And the moon softly restore you at night. May the rain wash away your fears And the breeze invigorate your being. May you, all the days of your life, Walk gently through the world and know it's beauty.

My bread machine if set on manual with kneed for 10min rest for about an hr then kneed 10 more minutes your only using the machine to kneed the dough. Then I cook it in a crock-pot. I like it way better than store seitan & it's cheaper to make then to buy. There are some great recipes here... http://www.ellenskitchen.com/recipebox/wheaties.html I made the unchuck roast last night & its awsome!

I was thinking about trying it. Did you follow the recipe exactly (using Rooiboos tea) or make subs? My hubby wants me to try the " pastrami " from her site. Thanks!

Also the recipe calls for sesame paste unhulled I wasnt sure what that was so I left it out. I have tahini but im not sure if thats what she was talking about since it was in the dry ingred instead of the wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Min, just so you know - it's pretty much like that except some bread machines do have you add the liquids first and the dry second - just gotta know which way your own machine goes... when I had one it was wet first, dry next. Thanks for the link! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Thank you all for these posts on seitan. I have had a bag of wheat protein isolate kicking around for some time now. I thought I would use it as a protein supplement in my morning smoothies, but I much prefer the rice protein powders. Anyway, I decided last night to make seitan balls with it. Using a 1/4 cup of wheat protein, a fl oz of water, and a hodge-podge of spices, I whipped up 8 little wheatballs in no time at all (kneading it in my hands like playdough). I just had them for lunch. Delicious! And unlike the storebought varieties, no sodium! This versatile, high protein, food will definitely become a mainstay. I look forward to experimenting with the spices. -Erin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
