We had this for dinner tonight and I believe this is the best beef seitan recipe so far! Thank you so much for the recipe! It's amazing! Only problem is that my 26 year old son took all the leftovers! 😎

I made this for Christmas dinner and it turned out great! I had only made seitan once before and it hadn’t turned out, but I read the recipe notes for this and the overnight refrigeration is a must! I froze the rest of it in slices and have made a couple sandwiches with it and it’s phenomenal. Thank you!

Just to let you know I followed your recipe to the letter but I steamed it in my instapot for 60 min then baked it with a glaze for 10 min at 400 in my air fryer. Truly I have made a lot of seitan using different recipes, and without question yours is the best!!!!! Tasted incredibly like roast beef. It is juicy, nice and firm like meat after over night in the fridge. Thank you so much!!! Amazing recipe.

I recommend following the recipe as written. It's been tested thoroughly and oven baking gives by far the best results.

I haven’t had too great of a success baking seitan creations in the oven so I have found steaming in my Insta Pot works the best. So I just put the roast in for an hour and figured I would bake it for 20 minutes in the oven after it is done in the Insta pot. What do you think of that plan?

If I were going to try it I would cook the beef as per the recipe first. If too much moisture is added before its cooked the texture just won't be right. Then, I would marinate it as per your sauerbraten recipe and cook it again. It reheats perfectly so will be fine being cooked gently again. The only issue could be the texture as its sitting in moisture for a very long time but hopefully the double cooking will remedy that? It's really impossible to say how it will hold up texture-wise without trying it. If you do give it a try let me know how it goes!

With a beef roast, you would marinate the meat for a couple days before cooking. How could you adapt that to this? Cook the seitan, and refrigerate it. The questions then is to marinate or not. And then, with the beef roast, it cooks like a pot roast, braising in the oven. Any recommendations for adapting this to that type of roast cooking?
