You’ve asked, I listened! If you’re keen on a chewier meat replacement seitan, like my original meaty stringy seitan recipe, and are craving a replacement for breads and buns – wait no longer. This recipe has texture closer to English muffin, or dense rye bread. Waiting to be sliced in half and toasted, topped with hummus, olives, sweet #tofu skin, fresh cherry tomatoes & chives
Blend ingredients in a bullet blender until smooth:
- 100 g or 1 medium fresh tomato
- 130 g boiled broccoli ( or another cruciferous vegetable)
- 1 Tbsp vegetable broth concentrate
- 1 Tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 small can tomato paste
- 1 oz or 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 cup water
Whisk dry ingredients
- 350g Vital wheat gluten
- 2 Tbsp PB2 ( defatted peanut butter) – or add full far peanut butter to wet ingredients
- 130 g soybean or chickpea flour

- 30 g wheat germ
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
