Bread machine seitan

Ingredients:

Wet stuff (goes first in my machine):

• 4 t vegan Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 cup soy sauce, tamari, or Bragg's
• 1.5 to 2 cups water

Dry stuff

• 2 cups vital wheat gluten (I use Bob's)
• 1/2 cup garbanzo flour (Bob's, again)
• 1/2 to 3/4 cups nutritional yeast
• 4 t onion powder
• 2 t dried sage
• 2 t dried thyme
• 2 t salt (I use less)
• 2 t smoked paprika

Method:

1. Dump the wet stuff into the bowl.
2. Dump the dry stuff into the bowl.
3. Push the button.

My Toastmaster has a cycle called "Basic Medium" (as opposed to "Basic Light" and "Basic Dark"), so I tried that one. Seems to have worked fine. 

The resulting loaf is moist and meaty, with an interestingly crispy (not hard) skin on five faces. Because the bread machine's cycle is set up for bread (mix, let rise, punch down, let rise, punch down, let rise, bake) it lets the dough settle a couple times and then spins it again with the mixing blade. Result: the center of the loaf is stringy in an almost spooky approximation of turkey.
