Bbq Flavored Seitan - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups vital wheat gluten
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1 cup water
4 tablespoons tomato paste
4 tablespoons canola oil or 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1 tablespoon tamari or 1 tablespoon Braggs liquid aminos
2 teaspoons molasses
1 teaspoon liquid smoke

Preparation

Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together wet ingredients.
Add wet mixture to dry ingredients (I find pouring it along the edges of the dry mixture helpful).
Mix and knead the dough thoroughly.
Shape into an 8 inch (or so) loaf.
Place the loaf in the middle of a sheet of aluminum foil.
Tightly wrap loaf in foil like a sausage, twisting the ends.
Steam the wrapped loaf for 45 minutes.
Pre-heat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Place loaf in pan or on baking sheet and bake for another 45 minutes.
Take out, unwrap, let cool, and enjoy!
