I am going to make seitan for the first time from a box mix!
Okay, I get it that I cook it in the liquid for awhile and then slice and
store it in the fridge in the cooking liquid. My questions are: How long can
I store it in the fridge? If I want to freeze it, can I? And how do I do
that, still in the liquid? And does that affect the cooking time/taste?
Also there is a recipe on the side of the box for Seitan burgers that
involves cutting up the seitan and mixing it with onion, and oatmeal and
stuff and cooking it in a pan. Is the seitan slice not good as a burger?
I would really like to recreate a fabulous "meaty" burger like the ones I
get at Caseys or Licks, something like Yves Burger burgers. Any help would
really be appreciated! :)
Also when you see a recipe that calls for seitan can you use any form of
seitan? I see all these interesting patties and slices and balls at the HFS,
can I use these, or is that different from what I will be making from the
box?
I really need some guidance! Thanks.
Sheila
