Ingredients
INGREDIENTS- 1 cup white beans- 2 cups water- 1/4 cup oil- 2 tsp salt- 2 tsp paprika- 2 tsp onion powder- 1 tsp garlic- 1/4 tsp tumeric- 1 tsp ground fennel- 1 tsp sage- 1 tsp pepper- 1 tsp soy sauce- 2 3/4 cup vital wheat gluten
Directions

METHOD
Get water steaming in your steamer.
1. Place all ingredients except the gluten flour in a blender and process until smooth. Pour into a bowl. Add gluten flour and work into a dough.
2. Shape dough into a log and wrap in heavy duty foil like a tootsie roll. Try to make the roll as thick as possible. Steam for 1 hour.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees in the last 15 mins of steaming. Remove seitan from steamer and bake for 45-60 mins. Seitan should swell and press against the foil.
4. Cool and slice as needed for sandwiches. This seitan holds up very well and can be shaved very thin. Store in the fridge

    i have made this before from the website. thank you for putting it into spark. adding nutritional yeast ups the vitamin content and i think the original has it. vegena dad is the only person ive seen putting beans in his seitan, it makes less chewy than using straight gluten - 12/3/13
