Directions:Directions: Combine the vegetable broth with the tvp and let sit until it softens. Place the anise seed (one star), fennel seed and red pepper flakes in a mortar and bruise with a pestle. Get your steaming apparatus set up and bring water to a boil while you assemble the seitan. Tear 6 sheets of tin foil or parchment paper (about 5 inches each).
Mash beans with a fork. Add the wheat gluten, nutritional yeast and spices, including fennel, anise and pepper flakes. Mix together with your fingers, then incorporate with the mashed beans into a coarse meal. Pour in the remaining ingredients and mix together with your fingers, until a moist dough is formed. Add a tablespoon or two of water if necessary.
Divide the dough into six equal parts. With each part, form into a log about 5 inches long. Roll the dough in foil and twist the ends. Place the wrapped 'links' into a steamer and steam for about 40 minutes, until the sausage is firm. |
