Looks very interesting! Does this produce a pretty firm loaf? I've had seitan with highly developed gluten that I really loved, and some that was a little, er, flobbery for me.

i haven't made this in a while (because i kept loosing the darned recipe) but if i remember correctly it was pretty firm. you have to kneed it a lot to really get the gluten formed. also i think that because it's not simmered, but roasted, it doesn't absorb as much liquid and keeps a better consistency.

greg made a great corned "beef" and cabbage with seitan last year for st patricks day. he was so proud of his little irish self.
