Ingredients & Substitutions
Vital wheat gluten is the key ingredient for seitan and cannot be substituted with regular flour. Nutritional yeast adds a cheesy flavor; if unavailable, you can omit it but may lose some depth in flavor. For a gluten-free option, consider using lentils or chickpeas instead, but the texture will differ significantly.
Tips & Notes
- •For a firmer texture, knead the dough longer.
- •Experiment with spices to customize the flavor to your liking.
Recipe Variations
- •Add chopped fresh herbs like parsley or basil for an extra flavor boost.
- •Incorporate finely chopped bell peppers or onions into the sausage mixture for added texture.
Storage & Freezing
Store cooked seitan sausages in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving.
