How to make Bacon from Flour | Vegan Bacon from Wheat Starch

- In this video I break down the steps to make vegan bacon from wheat starch. I made this crispy crunchy vegan bacon using the washed flour starch by product from making vegan seitan chicken. There is no reason to throw away the starch water. It makes the most amazing bacon substitute I've ever had. If you want plant based pork, look no further. This easy vegan recipe from simple ingredients is another form of wheat meat - using the starch.

Ingredients:
Light colored batter
2 cups of starch water - thin, not thick. (1 cup wheat starch powder, 1 cup water)
1 T mushroom seasoning
1/2 T vegan chicken bouillon
1 tsp liquid smoke
1 T olive oil
1 tsp salt
Dark colored batter
2 cups of starch water - thin, not thick. (1 cup wheat starch powder, 1 cup water)
1 T mushroom seasoning
1/2 T vegan chicken bullion
1 tsp liquid smoke
1 T olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 T maggi seasoning
1 T soy sauce
1 T red wine
1 T maple syrup
1 T smoked paprika
Mix batters well. I like to put them into squeeze bottles.
Heat a large non-stick pan to med low. Brush with oil. Add batters sequentially making variated color strips. Add enough batter to make 1 thin solid crepe. Cook for a minute or two until set and it releases from the pan. Flip and cook 30 seconds or so. Remove from pan and cook the next crepe.
Once all the crepes are cooked, slice them into bacon strips. Heat a pan to med high heat and add a good amount of oil. Fry bacon strips turning a few times until crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel. Bacon can be stored in an airtight container for several days on the counter.
Bacon Bits: For the crepes that break apart, chop into fine pieces and pan fry with oil until crispy. Drain and enjoy.

Thanks for the mention! I’m loving your videos! Very well done 👍🏼
Oh my goodness, the experts are here! Thanks so much. I’m looking forward to your next video!!! And muchas muchas gracias para la inspiración.
@@ThePotThickens 😂 I’m loving your humor, it’s so refreshing. De nada amigo!
how many crepes does your recipe make ? i was going to ask on your video but the comments are turned off :(
@@healthhnutzI was wondering how I received a message 😁. I turned them off because of all the negative comments I was getting. I don’t have time or energy for it.
It really depends on the size of the pan you use. I remember making about 12-13 but I messed up two of them because I hadn’t added oil yet to the recipe yet. I hope this helps.
@@yessicainfante831 ugh the i hate the haters!! i absolutely love your page its so awesome. this was very helpful thank you ! one last question about how many drumsticks were you able to make in your vegan drumstick video with the bbq sauce and fried sticks ? sorry for all the questions just really excited to make these for my family
can we talk about how likeable this guy is? like seriously, besides that he knows his stuff he seems so nice! so glad I came across his videos
You are too kind. Thanks for watching!
I am seriously watching for the people skills, so kind
I agree! He’s actually the reason I’m going to try making my own seitan and vegan bacon
I’m 34 and I’d honestly date him
I agree. I'm a new subscriber because he is so pleasant, & very detail oriented.
"Healthy bacon? Oh please!"
🤣💀💜
I’m trying g to be less awkward and more humorous.
“ this is bacon,,, it’s not low fat,, I don’t know what you were thinking”,,, 😝
Truth!
One of the fewest chefs that actually include their failed attempts ❤️❤️🥰 thank you so much i will be trying this later
Thanks. Let me know how it goes
Hi. Story goes like this: Ben Franklin, when asked about those 1700 (fails) attempts to creating electricity, he responded, "those were not fails, they were 1700 ways for not doing it."
@@ThePotThickens Has "later" arrived yet? 😉
People are so threatened by food that is guilt-free because they aren't strong enough to do it themselves! Love this! Keep it up
Thanks so much.
Guilt?
Me starting the video : "okay that won't work at all. But try to convince me."
Me at the end of the video : "hold up! I'll try this!"
Man, that was interesting ngl. I'm a trained chef and I'm going vegan. That is a whole new world for me, but your videos are a good starting point for me.
Thank you. It has salt, smoke and crunch. It’s a pretty good alternative. Appreciate your kind comments, chef.
bro do not go vegan it is seriously so unsustainable and unhealthy
Im not vegan, but I have been cooking vegan recipes for a couple of friends for the past 6 sundays and I found it very exciting. The way this recipes transform some thing into another it's just like alchemy!
Thanks. I appreciate that you are here.
You gotta love how creative vegan cooking is!
So sweet of you to do that for your friends❤
Get the heck out of here!!! That looked awesome and so "real"!!! I've officially saved this in my inbox for making later. That is AWESOME.
Please let me know how it turns out for you!
Shut the front door! I made my first seitan last night and I'm on my 2nd batch tonight. I couldn't believe this was possible. I feel like the govt has been lying to us all along. I've been vegetarian since 2010 but I always thought seitan was a trick. But it's literally got the texture!
Those “bacon bits” at the end looked amaaaazing!
Super delicious.
I just made these bacons and they were surprisingly similar to the normal ones, both in taste and texture. I’ve never seen vegan bacon this way and I live in a fast growing vegan culture place (Porto Alegre - Brazil). thank you so much for sharing and bringing this new culinary reality!
I’m glad it worked well for you. Cheers!
That's really cool! I wanna try it now lol
Good sir (I couldn't find your name anywhere), I've just made this bacon while my chick'n breast is sitting in the fridge overnight and OH. MY. GOD.
IT IS DIVINE. It scares me how good it is: the crispness, the saltiness, the smoky flavour, that satisfying crunch when you bite into it...just wow. You've outdone yourself.
I made a BLT for my partner and she said I've ruined other sandwiches for her because all she wants is this now.
You are a credit to the food industry, keep doing what you're doing, you wonderful man.
My name is Greg. Thanks. I’m glad you like it.
I saw the vdeo and thought. BLT maybe?
so glad that i just eat regular bacon
Yes! You do you. Thanks for watching.
Incredible!!! Thank you for sharing!! It’s a present that you uploaded this after watching the washed flour seitan video. ✨🌱
You're so welcome!
Now this is super cool! Had no idea you could do this! Super helpful and well explained, awesome job my friend!
I am so happy I found your channel. There are so many amazing recipes. You can tell you put a lot of thought into the videos and recipes. Thank you so much!!
Thank you!
I watched Yessica's video too but I like your seasonings/colorings better. I will definitely give this a try. Thanks, Greg!
They are all good. The best part is you can use what you like! Thanks for stopping by.
Made this tonight and its the best vegan bacon I’ve ever had. Thanks for teaching me how to create such a delicious snack!!
So glad! Thanks so much for watching.
You sir are absolutely amazing! I just found your channel and can not wait for more recipes!
Thanks and welcome
I am SO happy I found your videos! You are an amazing teacher!
Thanks so much.
I really like the fact that you don't let anything go to waste. Great video!
Thanks so much. I appreciate that.
I have a big jug of starch that's been waiting for use!! Awesome video and instructions! On my can't wait to do today list! It look delicious! I hope you do more recipes with the starch! (Ie. Cheeses?) Cindy
Thanks. Yes, I need to start making cheeses! I haven't tried yet. By the way, sometimes I'll just take the starch water, season it with a little salt and make plain crepes. I like to roll up kimchi in it and eat it that way. You could use those plain crepes for anything you want. You could probably sweeten it to make sweet crepes. Nutella? The sky is the limit.
I just made this, needs some more practice but its already amazing, thank you for this amazing, clear and straightforward video. Look forward to making more of your recipes!
Awesome. Thanks.
Thank you so much! Your videos are by far the most helpful and easy to follow. I am new to making seitan. I just watched your washed flour seitan video and then this one. I will definitely be making some chicken and bacon! Thrilled to find your channel! Thank you.
You are so welcome!
I started making seitan not too long ago. I'm so happy to get this video in my recommended because I always felt bad throwing away the starch water. I'll be definitely trying this out as soon I get my hands on liquid smoke! Thank you so much :D
Thanks.
I make powdered beet root; I could use that for coloring. Love this video!
Yes. I would have used it if I had some.
thanks for the basic seitan video. I will be using it to make some soon. It 's very helpful. and i've seen sauce stash do this bacon thing so I will be saving the water also. these are great videos! vey informative and easy to follow.
Glad it was helpful!
I'm obsessed with your channel! I'm new to this vegetarian journey and your videos get me super excited to cook! Thank you for these awesome recipes!
Thanks so much. I’m glad you find it useful.
Great timing! I've washed some flour just a couple of hours ago!
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out.
Very detailed and informative! I bet those small broken bits taste super amazing on pizza!! Great job! :)
It was better than I expected! Really delicious. Thanks.
Love your videos!! ✨🌱💚 Thank you for sharing your great recipes and we love the added humour!
Thanks so much.
Thank you for blessing me with your channel
You are so welcome.
The more I watch you the better you get, down to earth and you admit you’re failures and give a use for them, I’ve tried the seitan washed flour chicken, I got my seasoning wrong but I was impressed by the visual and texture. Cheers ..
Glad you like them! I cringe when I go back and watch my first videos. Thanks for the comments.
"I don't know what you expected"... that laugh. XD Gold, lol. _* Subscribe *_
Bacon was the farthest thing from my mind while watching your seitan video and you mentioned setting it aside for another recipe. Now I can't wait to try this out too! Tyfs!
Thanks.
thanks for the great idea! for years now, i only ever used a bit of my left over starch for thickening my sauces. this is great! thanks a lot!
You are so welcome!
Really enjoyed these videos, bacon and chicken/seitan. Your thoughtful humility shines. Thank You and will definitely try both. Happy Fourth!
Thanks so much. I really appreciate your comments.
This looks so fun to make I'm tempted to make them even though I'm far from being vegan. Excellent video!
Food is food, no matter if it is from plants or animals. I really think labels turn people off too much.
What I like the most is that you've done in a manner that gives confidence to someone who doesn't have confidence in the kitchen. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Your welcome. Thanks for watching.
Smiling the whole presentation, tough day in so many ways. This was a spirit lifter
Thanks so much!
Found your seitan video late last night and saved this one for while I was working today. Incredible recipes, and I think you're so lovely and great. Keep it up!!
Glad you like them!
Perfect! I need to try this - I have a batch of starch left from your seitan chicken recipe in my fridge now. I really like it that this recipe gets the red color from the spices and not food coloring or beat root powder, which I cannot find anywhere!
Thanks. Yes, I don't really have those colorings on hand either. In the summer I grow beets, so will use some beet juice sometimes.
I find beets at my Indian grocery. I slice them thin and dehydrate in my oven and powder them in my coffee grinder.
This channel is too underrated
Thanks so much. I am a little biased, but I agree with you.
I’m making your washed flour seitan today, it’s resting on my kitchen counter now. This bacon recipe is next on my list! Thank you for making such wonderful videos that are so easy to follow!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching. Let me know if you have any questions.
Excellent video, this & your washed flour seitan instruction video is great. Subscribed.
Thank you
Thank you. I'm vegan for more than 5 years now. Never really missed meat and never bought meat alternatives. But I'm always out looking for something new and this looks great and easy. One more thing I love about you - you don't talk and talk but get straight to the point and explain everything understandably. Thank you. Subscribed. 😊💚💚💚
Thanks so much. I don’t eat this every day, but I’m anticipating a blt when the tomatoes come in from the garden!
This is exactly what I love about veganism. It pushes you to be as creative as possible so that you don't miss any type of food. "I'm a believer"
It certainly does! Thanks for watching.
Thank you! Lovely guy,straight forward ,clear explanations,love your videos ,sir,! Keep it up! Steve,in the the North east uk.!
Many thanks! I'm glad you like my videos. Cheers.
I’ve just discovered your channel and I loved you as soon as you called us all “potstickers.”
Thanks for your vegan recipes!
Thanks so much!
I'm not vegan, or even vegetarian, but I had a very traumatic experience when I was young.
I almost choked to death on inproperly cooked meat product, so I ended up very picky when it comes to meat.
Seeing good alternatives does help.
This one and the seitan video in particular. I might even try them.
Thx.
Sorry to hear that. I’m glad you find my videos useful. I really don’t care for labels. Good food is good food. Thanks for watching.
Sounds like it was improperly chewed to me.
That was interesting ! I really like Maggi sauce and I'm amazed that it's not more known here (France). It has a nice "umami" taste that is great to cook vegetarian or vegan food. I used to make lasagna by frying tofu in olive oil with chopped onions, garlic and Maggi sauce. But this is a whole other level !
I still have to try the home made seitan, but I'll definitely keep some starch to make it !
PS: Love the (lovely) "healthy bacon" funny moment. Plant based food isn't necessarily healthier, fries are vegan, but I wouldn't recommend eating too much if you try losing weight :P
Keep up the good work !
Merci beaucoup. I appreciate your comments. Do try the seitan. It is very versatile and there is a lot more you can do with it.
Omg I'm so glad I have found your channel😍 fantastic recipe , will try for sure🌱💚
Thanks so much.
Just found this guy. I absolutely love his videos. Very informative for people trying to go plant based or any cook. Good work my dude. Love the food.
Thank you.
This was great! Can’t wait to try this. And thank you for showing the one that didn’t work out! Always good to see that everyone has things that don’t work… so easy to beat myself up when things don’t work the first time.
You’re very welcome.
i'm so glad i found this channel! It looks unbelieveably delicious :)
Welcome!! Thanks so much.
You make things so approachable it isn't scary to get into the kitchen. Thank you so much, I have my first ever piece of seitan simmering in a pot right now and I'm so excited to dive into this as well. Thank you thank you!!
Thanks so much for watching. FYI - simmer the seitan very very low. You don't want to boil it or it may puff up and become spongy. It's still fine to eat, but it won't have as good of a shred texture.
@@ThePotThickens TYSM!! I have it on a verrrry low simmer - partially due to being worried about it spilling over 😅 it smells sooo gooooooood
I love your demonstrations. Getting ready to try them now!!!!!
Thanks so much.
@@ThePotThickens You are very welcome!!!!!!!
Amazing recipes! Don’t stop what you are doing 😍
Thanks. I won’t.
I am so glad I found this channel!
Thanks for stopping by.
You make this process look realistic, simple, and doable.👍
Thanks 👍It really is simple and doable! If I can do it, anyone can. Thanks for watching.
This is such a great video! Thank you for breaking this down so beautifully.
Thanks. I’m glad it was helpful.
@@ThePotThickens I love it too
@@ChefTJ Awesome! By the way, if people haven't seen Chef TJ's channel, and are interested in meat substitutes, his vegan bone marrow is genius!
You are my new favourite channel. Keep up the great work my man

I am New just discovered You and your channel today 😀😁😍 Thank you so much for Doing this 🙏💚
You’re very welcome. I just made another batch of these yesterday and they turned out so good. Cooking the crepes on a flat nonstick electric griddle worked so much better than a pan.
Great videos!!!! Thanks for teaching us!!!

You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
I love what you did with your mistake, very creative. Great video, it inspired me. Thanks for sharing 🤩
Thanks so much! 😊
Loved this plus I saved the other video on making sietan. Amazing
Thanks so much. Hopefully soon I'll have a Q&A video about WTF seitan out and another video showing some of the different ways I've used the quick 15 min seitan process.
your videos are amazing!!! thank for that!!!!!
Thanks for watching.
Looks delicious 😍 I will give it a try tomorrow, after preparing your seitan 🙏🏻
Awesome.
I tried this recipe today and OMG, it tastes just like Bacon! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
I’m so glad it worked for you. Thanks.
This looks awesome and pretty easy! I've been looking for a way to use the starch water - very excited to try!
Please let me know how it turns out for you.
This worked beautifully! I made the batters too watery at first but added more starch and it ended up being delicious. The first "gummy" one ended up making great bacon bits, and the chewiness was very reminiscent of fat bits. Love it!
Love your videos 😍 looks delicious!!!
Thank you 😋
So cool thanks for all your crazy vidéos
You’re welcome
Thank you for your posts. I never liked seitan but thanks to you made one and it was (I ate all of it) delicious. Today will try to make bacon although don't have all ingredients. Let's hope for the best!☺☺
Thanks. I’m glad my video helped. Good luck with the bacon. No matter what, you’ll have something delicious.
Love your videos. Thank you.
You're welcome.
this looks awesome, will definitely try them out!!
Thanks. Let me know how it turns out.
Really nice and informative video, just watched your seitan one before. I was already making seitan before, but it was still informative, got some ideas, and also like how the leftover starchy water was used. I did hear already about idea for pancakes, but not for vegan bacon or how to season is such.
Thanks. I appreciate that.
I am loving your recipes. I made this and it came out amazing!!! I even broke fast for it. Don't recall what bacon tastes like but I love this taste either way. Thank you for sharing these gems 😁👍
Thanks. I have to be careful because I’d eat it all at once, it is that good.
@@ThePotThickens I did 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those look soooo good, I have to try this.
You should!
I just tried it out from the seitan leftovers... it's AMAZING!!
Thanks I’m glad it worked well for you.
