To a blender, add all of the ingredients except for the vital wheat gluten. Blend until smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mix the dry and wet mixtures. To a large mixing bowl, add the vital wheat gluten. Pour the blended mixture into the bowl, stirring until a ball of dough forms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Knead the dough. You can do this two ways.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose one of the following ways to kneed the dough:\n<ul>\n<li>With a food processor: Separate the dough into three equal balls. Using a plastic (recommended) or metal s-blade attachment, pulse each ball of dough for about 2 minutes, until the gluten has formed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>By hand (We did this way): Knead for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is firm and the gluten has formed. Using your hands or a knife, separate the kneaded dough into three equal balls.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shape the seitan: Divide the dough into 4 even pieces. Roll it into a rope shape. Then twist it into a knot. This will help the seitan shred later on. Wrap the knot in aluminum foil and twist the ends like a candy wrapper. Repeat with each of the pieces. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Steam the seitan.<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>In a pot or pan that will fit your steamer basket, heat some water over high until it comes to a boil. Place the steamer basket in the pan, add the seitan to the basket, and cover the pan with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium low.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Steam for 45 minutes, flip the seitan, then steam again for an additional 45 minutes. Check in every so often to make sure that you pan has not run dry, and add more water to the pan as needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Let the seitan cool in the aluminum foil for at least 1 hour before unwrapping.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shred the seitan. Once the seitan is cool enough to handle, begin shredding it with your hands. Pull apart the \u201cchicken\u201d shreds as thin or thick as you\u2019d like them!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to serve seitan chickens shreds: Use in recipes as a replacement for shredded chicken. They also taste great in a veggie stir fry with an Asian sauce, or pan fried and coat with bbq sauce for sandwiches. Store the seitan shreds in the fridge for up to 10 days. Leftovers are freezer-friendly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This one was a total unlock from Nikki.
