Salisbury Seitan with Canadian Wild Rice

I was looking for a real manly meal so I guess this is what I came up with.

Seitan

3 cups Gluten Flour

1 cup water

3tbsp soy sauce

1/4cup crushed tomato

2 cloves garlic

1tbsp cumin

1tbsp onion powder

3 tbsp kosher salt

1/4cup olive oil

1tsp mustard powder

First put the tomato, soy sauce, garlic, oil, and spices in a food processor until you get a nice paste. Then in a mixing bowl add the paste, water and flour until it all comes together. Form it into a log and wrap in tin foil. Steam for 1 hour. After the seitan is done cooking then marinate it in soy sauce, maple syrup and liquid smoke overnight.

The Rice

1 1/2 cups Canadian wild rice

2 1/2 cups of water

pinch of salt

drop of lemon juice

Add your rice, water, lemon juice and salt to your favorite saucepan. Bring to a boil. Then turn down heat to very low, cover and cook for one hour. Its worth it.

Gravy

2/3 cup of vegan butter

1/3 cup of hemp milk

1/2 onion pureed

2 cloves garlic

1tsp chives

1tsp sage

1/2 tsp cumin

2tsp soy sauce

pepper

Add garlic, onion and butter to saucepan. When you smell that wonderful garlic through the whole room add the hemp milk. Then add your spices and soy sauce. Whisk in your flour until you get the consistency you like.

Slice up a couple of seitan steaks, put it over some wonderful wild rice, load it with gravy, sprinkle with some red pepper flakes, grab a beer and enjoy.
