SEITAN. in the FACE

[rax]

So I am done with all of my homework for the week as well as optional reading and it is only Sunday. I thought about doing next week's homework but for a variety of annoying reasons it's not clear what that _is_ and so instead I am posting my seitan recipe. WITH PICTURES. I took most of the pictures in Indiana so you will be getting pictures from

Yay! Gonna make this and sneak it into fried rice sometime soon. <3

Oh cool! I mean, I'm a lazy ass who just buys seitan, but your way is far more impressive.

Hah, that's funny! I think of this as the lazy way and steaming/boiling as the hardcore ways to make seitan.

I... can't eat anything from the store except the totally bland ones, and I don't much care for those, so it's always making my own for me if I want it spiced at all. Otherwise I would do that too, although this recipe really is very easy. I do it on conference calls and things.

Awesome. It sounds as though anise applications should go well in dumplings-- if I can think of a way to produce tomato-free char siu seitan, I'll let you know.

Yeah, I was thinking that anise gets used in Chinese cooking quite frequently!

[faerieboots]

Oh man, that sounds really tasty! Also, I was thinking fennel when you started listing other weird stuff you can put in--slightly different flavor, but may be more complimentary. Anise is in fact awesome though.

...fennel is a very good idea, thank you :)

also I bet you are not on AIM ever anymore because of day job, but we should talk sometime!
