This is not my favorite way to make gluten/seitan, but it's a basic recipe for making seitan, possibly for use in other recipes.

Basic Gluten

Book: MasterCook Recipes
Chapter: American

Makes 4 servings
From Cooking with Gluten and Seitan by Dorothy R. Bates and Colby Wingate

1 cup instant wheat gluten flour (vital wheat gluten)
1/8 cup water or vegetable stock
6 cups vegetable broth

Stir together thoroughly in a bowl:

1 cup instant gluten flour
1/8 cup water or vegetable stock

Knead a minute to blend. Divide into 16 to 20 balls, stretching and pressing to flatten into cutlets.

Drop the gluten cutlets into:

6 cups vegetable stock

Cover the pan and bring the stock to a simmer. Reduce the heat to very low and simmer the cutlets gently for about 50 minutes. Drain and cool before using.
