This is so good!! I agree with another tip on here to add some liquid smoke. I also upped the nutritional yeast to 1/2 a cup. I also baked it for 80 minutes total turning on each side every 20. Came out great!!

This is excellent! So delicious, and will be perfect for the holidays. It definitely needs more than an hour to cook. Mine was in for 2 hours before it was done. I added about 1/8 tsp liquid smoke and I think that helped with flavor.

Fantastic! So good I don't have to boil so it doesn't become wet and watery.

My husband is vegan and this seitan roast gives him the texture of meat and he has had it on its own sliced with a roast dinner or I’ve made into a wellington surrounded by mushrooms and spinach and sealed in pastry The vital wheat gluten is hard to get unless you order online or via a health food store
