If you've tried to make the viral tiktok vegan chicken recipe and failed, this video is for you. I show you the entire process from start to finish how to make seitan from flour using the washed flour method. The techniques are important in order to achieve the best texture and flavor for seitan. You can't see all these techniques in just 30 seconds. I've made this video to show the process in detail so you can see how the texture and color changes in each step. If you follow the video all the way through to see these tips you can get it right every single time.

Dough:
4 cups of strong bread flour - all purpose will work but may yield a bit less - the higher the protein content, the better
2-2.5 cups of water - add half first then only add enough water needed to make the dough

A better dough recipe (65% hydration):
For every 1000 g flour, add 600-650 ml water. Start with less water and add just enough to form a soft dough.

Note, you may need less water for your dough depending on your flour and climate. I Knead for 5-10 minutes and then rest for 2 hours or more completely covered in water. Drain and add water. Massage and knead the dough for 3-4 minutes under water to remove the starch. Repeat the process until the water is mostly clear - typically about six times. Let it rest 10 minutes. Cut into three strips, braid and then knot the dough as tight as possible.

Braising liquiod:
4 cups water
1 T onion powder
1 T garlic powder
2 T smoked paprika
1 tsp white pepper
2 T vegan chicken flavored bouillon
2 T maggi seasoning
2 T soy sauce

Heat to boiling. Simmer gluten in braising liquid for 1 hours. Remove from heat. Chill covered in braising liquid overnight. Shred, cut or slice the seitan for use in your favorite recipe.
