      Two layers of each.

Eating pig is disgusting, IMHO, and I have not touched the stuff in over 50 years. I believe it’s why I do not have high cholesterol, heart disease or any kind of sickness related to eating meat. Haven’t touched beef or anything with a hoof in over 50 years and am healthier than anyone I know. But many of us still like the smoky taste of bacon. Thank goddess there’s many recipes using plants only.

    Yes, this is the best vegan bacon recipe I’ve found. Next time I will add just a tiny bit more seasonings and flavorings, just a bit. It was difficult slicing into thin slices even when semi-frozen. So, I sliced the best I could and put them between sheets of parchment paper and used my rolling pin to flatten better. Stacked them up in layers with the parchment paper between them and froze like this. Worked great! Thanks for another interesting and good recipe!

      Had come across this question before and thought of possibly adding your washed gluten - the final product - to a stand mixer along with the dry spices and kneading it with the dough hook attachment for a good 5 minutes. That just might incorporate the dry flavoring well enough into the dough.

As I would love to make my own Seiten, but my gut would absolutely hate it sadly! :( (pure gluten = a nightmare for my body lol :S)

    Is there an alternative I can use for the vital gluten flour? I'm gluten sensitive :(

    What food processor is that? Looks sturdier than mine. I’m excited to try this recipe for my next breakfast prep 😋
