Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 cups water
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sage
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp celery seed

Directions:

  1. In a medium bowl, stir together the wheat gluten and water until it becomes elastic. Knead dough anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes.
  2. Cut into you desired shapes and sizes.
  3. In a medium sauce plan, bring all of the broth ingredient to a boil.
  4. Add prepared seitan into broth.
  5. Reduce heat and cover with lid.
  6. Let simmer for 50-60 minutes stirring every 10 minutes, until MOST but not all of the broth has reduced completely, this can take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes.
  7. Use chicken flavored seitan immediately in your dish of choice or store in the refrigerator for up to 6 days, or the freezer for up to 6 months. If you use the seitan imemdiately after simmering, it will seem quite soft and tender. If you allow it to cool and then use it in a dish, it will have a bit more texture to it.
