  • 300 g vital wheat gluten flour
  • 40 g cornflour

Wet Ingredients

  • 375 ml water
  • 150 g smoked tofu
  • 2 tbsp miso paste
  • 2 tbsp Liquid Smoke
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp onion powder, or freeze-dried onion
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp clove powder

Glaze

  • 50 g maple syrup
  • 40 g sugar
  • 2 tsp mustard

Zubereitung

  • Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix the wet ingredients in a stand mixer until smooth. Then add these to the bowl and knead everything vigorously for at least(!) 5 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Shape the seitan mixture into a cylinder. Roll it up in a large piece of aluminium foil and close the ends tightly by twisting them.
  • Now cook the seitan roast for about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely, preferably overnight.
  • Remove the seitan roast from the foil and prick it a few times with a fork. Leave to stand in the hot but no longer boiling stock for about 30 minutes. Remove and leave to cool slightly.
  • In the meantime, preheat the oven again to 180 degrees Celsius and mix the glaze. Brush the roast with about 2/3 of the glaze and bake for 20 minutes. Brush with the remaining glaze and bake for another 5 minutes.
