How to Prepare Seitan Parmesan [Vegan]

Mix: 6 tablespoons vital wheat gluten, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon poultry herbs, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Mix in a different bowl: 1 tablespoon tahini and 5 tablespoon vegan chicken broth or water.
Combine lines 1 and 2 until you have seitan dough. Knead dough for a minute.
Cover with water or broth. Boil for an hour. Once done use a paper towel to press some extra water out of the patty. Set aside to cool.
Make vegan egg as directed. Use a little extra water to make egg batter on the thinner side.
Make flour mixture: 6 tablespoon flour, 1/4 onion powder, 1/4 garlic powder, and 1/4 salt.
Dip seitan patty into flour then vegan egg batter then flour again. Fry on high/medium-high heat until golden brown.
Serve with pasta, sauce, and vegan cheese. Melt vegan cheese under "broil" setting, if desired. Grate Brazil nut finely for the Parmesan.
