Basic Seitan

Dry Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup vital wheat gluten
• 1/4 cup Garbanzo bean flour
• 1/4 tsp sage, thyme, cumin, garlic, or onion powder

Wet Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup water
• 2 Tbsp Braggs liquid aminos or water
• 2 Tbsp vegetable oil

you will need a large saucepan or small soup pot + water or vegetable broth for boiling

Instructions:

Mix all the dry ingredients in one bowl and all the wet ingredients in another. Combine them into a dough. Form the dough into small patties or strips. Keep in mind that the dough will expand to about double in size. 

Boil the water (enough to cover the patties). Flour the dough shapes with all-purpose flour. Place them in the boiling water and boil on medium-low until they expand and float to the top. When they are done you now have the equivalent of small steaks or steak strips. At this point bake, sauté, fry, or grill the seitan. Or add to a dish of your choice, soup, stew, or a casserole.

Amaranth Granola

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup apricot or peach puree
• 1/4 to 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 Tbsp oil (coconut works well)
• 1 Tbsp vanilla
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 2 1/4 cup puffed amaranth
• 1/2 cup nuts (optional)
• 1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
• 1/2 cup unsulfered and diced dried apricots and peaches (other dried fruids work well too)
• 1/2 cup grated unsweetened coconut (optional)

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13 x 9-inch cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, mix puree, syrup, oil, vanilla, and salt. Add amaranth, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, and coconut. Stir enough to coat dry ingredients
3. Spread in the cake pan and toast for 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently. The edges tend to burn faster than the rest of the granola and so should be watched carefully.
