Fake Steak and Tofu Eggs



This dish was made on a whim for breakfast as I had a lot of tofu left in the fridge and just a touch of vital wheat gluten. I made this Asian-style to make it a bit different but you can go any route you want. Get it? Route?



(Fake Steak Ingredients)

  • 1 package of Vital Wheat Gluten (I used Arrowhead Mills)
  • 1/8 cup Brown Sugar/Molasses
  • 1/2 tsp Soy Sauce (good quality)
  • A scant 1/2 cup Cold Beet Juice mixed with Water
  • 1/4 cup Cold Water
  • 3 tbl Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • Pepper to taste

(Directions)
  • Use about a third of the package so the outcomes of a larger amount might differ for you. Mix all of the wet ingredients (aside from the last water) together and shape as you like.
  • Mix the sugar/molasses with water and steam your seitan in it for about 30 minutes.
  • Once the thirty minutes are done and the water is evaporated, you can add the oil and begin to fry the seitan to your liking. Make sure to pepper it once you start this stage and to turn it around so that it gets crispy and crunchy.

  • Pair with the tofu eggs from Sushi Quest Part Two and enjoy!
