WTF method is less work? I don't think so. I've found vital wheat gluten is just more starch removed than what you do when you wash flour. Add in starches, more regular or other flour, tofu, beans, etc, so it's not so much pure gluten.
Nice vid. Do you find that VWG has an underlying wheat taste that is super hard to get rid of? I have put so much flavor into it and cannot get the taste to go away. I've heard it's from the processing.
A food made from gluten? I do not understand, what is the point? Gluten is not a healthy food ingredient.
I LOVE this video! It answers so many questions I’ve had in my mind. Thank you so much! And great haircut!
In my opinion WTF is better, but more work. So far I made a handful of recipes using the WTF method and dozens using the VWG with good results, still WTF wins,
Thank you for your videos, keep them coming!
Love this man… and This is good to know … so i suppose WTF is pre dehydrated as compared to VWG is the actually thee dehydrated version. Def a question I've always wanted to test out for myself maybe this will spur me on to actually try it. The WTF method tho Visually can't compare. It really is eye candy. Looks great 👍 … And thanks for sharing 👌😋
The best method is to ditch the nasty-looking play-doh and eat a real steak.
Just a suggestion from practice… I do have very good results adding to VWG: garbanzo flour, starches, x-firm tofu (mostly ground between fingers etc.), in order to adjust the "bite", and if simulating a cut of meat that includes multiple muscles in the cut (go ahead and ask a butcher – just don't buy something) and lay a seasoned sheet of rice paper between 2, 3, or more "muscles" then cook as you will.
Cheers
Really dug this breakdown video!
I need to put in more time practicing the WTF method. I never seem to be able to get as much starch off as I would like. Or better said I Dom't always want to put in all that work LOL But certain things come out better from washing flour.
1. This haircut tho! 🔥
2. The way you pat the Seitan loaf before closing the oven door was so cute. 😂 “bye lil seitan! Good luck!”
This is really good information that I have not seen anywhere else. Thank you! I like the new hairstyle, too.
Glad y'all like the new doo! #newmein2023
nice haircut! I think gluten flour it's more quick and easy but maybe more expensive and also have a stronger gluten flavor
Thanks for the explanation !!! C'est une question que je me posais tout le temps ! ( This is a question I asked myself all the time!)
Sitting here eating the WTF Seitan you're referencing, as you talk about which one is better for the application. lol
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great explanation! I haven't tried WTF yet, seems too intimidating haha. But I love VWG. Nice haircut btw 💇♂️
Aaaaaah! How super nice it is for you with such a haircut! It suits you very well, much more than with long hair.
And as for the video: thank you very much for the comparison
