      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.

    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

    So far I have poured away the water with the starch from the saitan production.
    I find this use very creative - I like it. It's motivating and honest that the first attempt in the pan is also shown; that's happened to everyone in the kitchen after all. About the fat: It is at least healthier fat👍 Greetings from Germany

    • @ThePotThickens

      Yes. Definitely healthier than saturated animal fats.

    So excited to try it! Did I get this right: you add water to the reduced starch soup? How much more or less? And my starch has formed sticky lumps on the bottom. I can liquefy them again by stirring. Would you recommend that or just use the liquid part?

    • @ThePotThickens
      @ThePotThickens  Рік тому +1

      Hard to say how much water because it depends in how much you have drained the starch. You want the consistency of a thin batter like a crepe batter. Thinner than pancake batter but not too watery. Practice in a couple and see how it spreads. You can always add a bit more water to thin it if too thick.

    Watching this and the seitan videos, I'm impressed by the re-use of "waste" ingredients and the inclusion of screwups. Not just acknowledging it, but also using those too, outstanding. Given that gluten and starch are both insoluble in water and they're both cooked, how well do either the seitan or 'bacon' hold up to wet dishes like a chili or stew? Could we use Worcestershire sauce in place of the maggi seasoning if we're not vegan?

    • @ThePotThickens
      @ThePotThickens  Рік тому

      The seitan holds up really well. The starch bacon would not. It's almost like a bacon cracker. Yes, you can change up the seasonings however you like! I don't think only vegans have to enjoy this! Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any more questions.

    I originaly watched your chicken seitan first, I been trying to find recipies for my hubby and I's "meatless mondays". I used hen o' the woods for the flavoring, and it rocked the "chick'n" so nice. This "bac'n" is next on my list!

    I made the seitan with spelt because I am allergic to conventional wheat. The texture was good, but it lacked flavor. Even after cooking it in the broth for over an hour & letting it rest in the broth in the fridge for a couple days. I am making the “bacon” now. Doesn’t look as good as yours, but it is a decent substitute.

    • @ThePotThickens
      @ThePotThickens  2 роки тому

      I haven't tried spelt myself. But this basic seitan process does need more seasoning when you use the shreds in your final dish. I like to use this for bbq, tacos, etc. where I am adding more flavors. You can try to season the seitan with flavorings cut into the dough before simmering to get more flavor.

    Acabei de conhecer seu canal e você é um cozinheiro maravilhoso! Aqui no Brasil temos uma "farinha" que é feita de mandioca, chamada "polvilho", nas versões "polvilho doce" e "polvilho azedo". Elas dão uma característica levemente puxa-puxa, então vou tentar adicionar na sua receita e fazer a massa um pouco mais alta. Volto aqui para contar...
