Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup vital wheat gluten
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3/4 cup vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 4 hamburger buns
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together 1 cup vital wheat gluten, 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup vegetable broth, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon tomato paste.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Knead the mixture for 3-5 minutes until it becomes elastic.
- Divide the seitan dough into 4 equal pieces and shape each piece into a log. Wrap each log tightly in aluminum foil.
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the wrapped seitan logs and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 40 minutes, turning occasionally.
- While the seitan is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until softened.
- Once the seitan is cooked, remove it from the pot and let it cool. Unwrap the seitan and shred it using two forks.
- Add the shredded seitan to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Pour in 1 cup of BBQ sauce and stir to coat the seitan. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, until heated through.
- Toast the hamburger buns and spoon the BBQ pulled seitan onto the bottom half of each bun. Top with the other half of the bun and serve hot.
