Kugan's Kitchen Part 6

Dev, thanks for the link.
I also make vege meat in my house.
The method is different, and ingredients too different.
I will post it for you.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Dev, this is how I do. It is very easy. Kugan98

VEGE MEAT OR SEITAN

Ingredients:
8 cups strong flour
2 ½ cups of water

Method:

Mix the flour with the water to make a stiff dough.
Form into a ball and knead well.

Let it stand under water for at least 2 hours or over night.
Then wash out starch by kneading with the hand in the water.

Be careful to to keep the dough together.
Pour off the starchy water frequently and continue,
washing until the water is almost clear.

You will then have a lump of gluten.
Boil the lump of gluten in water with little sliced
onions , garlic, salt pepper and little soy sauce.

Remove slice as you wish and use in your dishes.
