"Beefy" Seitan Log - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups vital wheat gluten
    1/4 cup nutritional yeast
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon onion powder
    1 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 cup mushroom stock
    1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 1/2 tablespoons vegetarian worcestershire sauce
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 325\u00b0F.
    Mix together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix together the liquid ingredients in a smaller bowl, then stir them into the dry ingredients until completely blended. Knead the dough in the bowl for a couple minutes, then place on a sheet of foil and shape into a log about 6 to 8 inches long. Wrap the foil tightly around the log and twist the ends.
    Bake for 80 minutes (this will be firm with a slightly crispy outside -- if you like your seitan a little \"spongy\", maybe bake for 60 to 70 minutes).
    Slice or chop as desired, and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator or freezer.
