Today we are making chicken from wheat gluten.. vital wheat gluten. Most people know this recipe as Seitan. Seitan is made by using the protein of wheat to form a dough. It cooks, looks and when flavored right, taste just like chicken!
Last week I made my first video in the plant based chicken series Chicken from grapefruit! Hope you enjoy part 2!
