In this episode of Barry tries, we are taking on the super viral TikTok 2 ingredient 'flour chicken' recipe - essentially a seitan made out of just water and flour! There were lots of variations of this recipe so I decided to attempt the super basic 2 ingredient one, but then enhance it a couple of ways, ultimately resulting in a gourmet vegan 'flour chicken' burger for my Daughter Phoebe - a really fun challenge that takes a little time, but is definately cool to try!

Hi!

@rolfs2165 3 года назад

Btw, you could put the washing water to the side and let the starch settle, so you can use it to … I don't know, thicken sauces.

@lynnejamieson2063 3 года назад

I’m pretty sure that after the seitan has been boiled, it then supposed to be cooked in another way, it isn’t supposed to be eaten plain, at that point it’s meant to be treated the same way as you would raw meat.

@MothCreature13 3 года назад

yeah you usually pan cook it then, or bake it.

@GyroCannon 3 года назад

Yep. The entire time that they were criticizing the seitan's lack of flavor, I just keep thinking about how bland chicken is if they had cooked it the same way

@lynnejamieson2063 3 года назад

@@GyroCannon that was my exact thought too. It’s been a very long time since I ate meat but I don’t remember it having very much flavour by itself, I’m sure what makes it enjoyable is the way in which it’s prepared and not just barely cooked and unseasoned morsels.

@emilyhughes4297 3 года назад

But he did try it in a few different ways, how are you meant to know how to cook something unless you try it out?

@deereating9267 3 года назад

I've found the longer you knead it the first go, like really until it is so stiff you can't even knead it anymore, the better the gluten develops and the more seitan you get from the flour. And nutritional yeast + soy sauce kneaded into the seitan adds a lot of savory flavor.

@mrbarrylewis 3 года назад

Nice tip thanks! It noticeably changed after the braiding step, went from super droopy to tough!

@Nathh99 3 года назад

“It’s bearable but flavourless” I mean this is similar to people who take a bite out of raw tofu / unseasoned soggy boiled veg - you’re not going to have a good time having unseasoned food Ingredient recommendations for experimenting with enhancing your seitan flavour: vital wheat gluten and nutritional yeast/nooch (can get at Holland and barret), liquid smoke (online or in large Tesco’s) and you can get interesting different flavoured stock cubes such as mushroom / garlic / or even sriracha flavoured

Braiding is easy, in future just remember it's always swapping into the middle from alternate sides with the outside on top(also works with the outside on the bottom since it's just a braid rotated 180°, but everyone does on top so for the sake of consistency stick to on top).

*On Braiding* : My sister explained it to me this way. A standard braid brings the alternating outside strands to the middle, putting the one over the other. An inverted braid does the same thing, but does so by bringing them under each other. A French braid is a standard braid with extra bits braided in (causing some to think it originated with a mademoiselle who was hungover and thus not fully coordinated).

@xRandomSarahx 3 года назад

@sha46327 3 года назад

The section you seasoned was done well, thank you for showing that bit. No one who makes seitan leaves it bland or boils it in plane water. I think some TikTok users may have for show, but that's not at all how it's done. You did right seasoning it up! Boiling is never the last step, that's when the "dough" becomes "seitan". From there it's turned into something more as you did frying it, there are tons of possibilities! Pan seared, fried, baked, grilled. I was so stoked you even went out of your way to get vegan "chicken" seasoning!! Then you dipped it in buttermilk. I know you addressed this but - Oh, Barry. 🤦‍♀️ Any non-dairy milk would do, but you can also make vegan buttermilk by adding about a tablespoon of lemon juice or your vinegar of choice to a cup of non-dairy milk and letting it sit for a couple of minutes. As a vegan it makes me excited to see this going around and people seeing the possibilities! When people do it right that is, with seasonings and final cooking steps - TikTok users need to work on fitting some of that into that short time, lol.

Engevita nutritional yeast has a strong chicken vibe for me (only that brand), so if you can get it, I think, using it to flavour /marinade the seitan will give it even more of a chickeny vibe ❤️❤️❤️ also, Edward and Sons and Massel make vegan chicken broths 🌱❤️ love to Phoebe

@DebHickerson 2 года назад

I've personally been making seitan (we just call it gluten steaks) since the '70s, and have relatives who have been making it much longer than that. I like to use about 1/3 whole wheat for texture. Don't rinse too much; my ex-MIL nearly washed hers all away once. LOL I've also never let it rest like that, and always, always boil it in some kind of broth, not plain water! We usually roll ours into a log then slice it into steaks, boil in broth for an hour and let rest overnight in the broth (refrigerated). Bread and fry the steaks and serve with cranberry sauce or use the remaining broth to make gravy. Yum! The leftover steaks make fabulous sandwiches.

@heatherrowles2580 3 года назад

Technically what youve got when youre done isnt flour and water, it is the protein from the flour with everything else, including the majority of the carbs, washed away. It is NOT a complete substitute for meat, there are a lot of nutrients like iron and vitamin B12 missing and you'd have to get those elsewhere (leafy greens but again, not as good as meat and you'd have to eat a LOT of spinach to match a small piece of steak for either) but it IS a good source of protein for muscle building.

It would be really nice to see you try a proper recipe (no TikTok!) for seitan after this.... anyone trying the two-ingredient version of seitan is going to be really disappointed if that's what they think seitan dishes normally taste like. My favorite seitan-based dish has fourteen ingredients for the "meat" (compared to 8-10 ingredients in the comparable meat dish) and it is delicious. Proper seasoning and cooking it the right way really does make all the difference.
