Making homemade seitan always seemed daunting to me, so I always forked over $8.00/lb for the stuff frozen from the local co-op.  But I heard so many rave reviews of the Seitan O Greatness recipe that is posted on The PPK that I figured I might as well give it a shot.

The results were fabulous, and the process was so quick and easy (my two favorite words in the kitchen!).  You mix a few ingredients together, form it into a log, wrap in aluminum foil, and BAKE! 











My son and I ate the whole log in one day, prompting me to make another log a few days later.  I would make more right now, but I don't have enough vital wheat gluten....  blah.

It has quite the combination of spices, which are open to tinkering, but I personally love this combination.  It is a bit spicy, but not overly so.  It has a great, meaty texture, and if extremely filling just to snack on.  It is great on crackers, but much better just shoved in your face....  hee hee
