Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 1¾ cups vital wheat gluten
  • ⅓ cup nutritional yeast
  • 2 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp crushed fennel
  • ½ tsp turmeric
Whisk the vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, garlic granules, onion powder, crushed fennel and turmeric together until homogeneous.
  • 1½ cups mushroom or vegetable broth
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp molasses
  • 1 tsp tahini
Whisk the broth, soy sauce, molasses and tahini together, then add the wets into the centre of the dries.
Bring together with a fork until lumpy and springy.
Pour the dough onto 18 inches of aluminum foil and roll it up like a burrito.
Steam 80 minutes, then rest 30 minutes.
Result: extremely dense, bouncy and without a memory of moisture; rejected, because the roast needs to be cooked twice.
