"******* on a Hot Tin Roof"

Tofurky!

Never mind.

Happy Thanksgiving.

great recipe from Bryanna Clark Grogan.

BRYANNA'S NEW VERSION OF SOY AND SEITAN "TURKEY" (WITH STUFFED"TURKEY",
STUFFING RECIPE, AND FAT-FREE GRAVY) (March 15, 2002)
Makes about 3 lbs.
The combination of tofu and soy or chickpea flour with the gluten makes a
seitan that is tender, not rubbery, and which slices easily, even in VERY
thin slices. The long kneading, resting, and slow-cooking method
partially adapted from recipe by Ellen from http://www.ellenskitchen.com
gives an incredible juicy, tender meat-like texture. This recipe makes
outstanding sandwich material.

DRY MIX:
2 c. pure gluten powder (instant gluten flour; vital wheat gluten)
1/2 c. full-fat soy flour or chickpea flour
1/2 c. nutritional yeast flakes
2 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic granules
1/4 tsp. white pepper

WET MIX:
12 oz. firm regular (NOT silken) tofu
1 and 1/2 c. water
3 T. soy sauce
1 T. olive oil

BASTING BROTH:
2 c. hot water
1/3 c. "chicken-style" vegetarian broth powder
2 T. olive oil
OPTIONAL: 4 cloves garlic, crushed
4 tsp. poultry herbs (sage, thyme, rosemary), crushed well
salt to taste

For the Wet Mix, in a blender, blend all the ingredients until very
smooth.

Mix the Dry Mix ingredients in the bowl of your electric mixer with dough
hook attachment, or place them in the bread machine in the order given.
Add the Wet Mix and knead for about 10 minutes. (If your bread machine
has a dough cycle-two kneads with a long rest in between-use that cycle.
Otherwise, just run it through the kneading part and then unplug it and
let it rest in the cover container, then plug it in again for another
knead, then remove it,) Let rest for about 1 hour, covered. You can make
your Cooking Broth at this time and have it ready. Then knead it for 10
more minutes.
(NOTE: You can knead by hand, too, but it's tougher than bread dough. You
may want to let the seitan dough sit for a while to soak up the liquid
more thoroughly before you starting hand-kneading.)

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

The dough should be quite shiny and smooth. Avoid breaking it up when you
take it out of the bowl. Flatten the dough out into a long piece and cut
in half equally to make two rectangles. Form into 2 loaves. Place each
loaf in an oiled 8 and1/2" x 4 and 1/2" loaf pan and press down a bit
with your hand. Mix the Cooking Broth ingredients in a small bowl and
pour 1/2 over each loaf. Cover each loaf pan with foil and place in the
oven.

Immediately reduce the oven heat to 200 degrees F. Bake for 3 hours. Turn
the loaves over, carefully loosening around the edges and from the bottom
with a small, thin spatula first.
The loaves will have puffed up quite a bit by now, but they will flatten
out as they cook further.

Turn heat back to 325 degrees F. Cover loaves and bake for 30 minutes.
Turn them over again, cover and bake 15 minutes. Turn them over again and
bake 15 more minutes, covered. Turn them over one last time and bake 5-10
minutes. The loaves should almost completely soak up the broth by the end
of the cooking time. If they don't, cook until they do. There will be a
bit of sticky "sauce" left in the bottom, which you can use to glaze the
loaves. Remove from the pans and serve, or let cool. Can be frozen.

COOKING NOTES: I haven't tried this as a large "roast" yet, but I imagine
it could be done in a larger pan.

and our 27 howling veggie brats over fer a veggie TG?

I'm weeping veggie tears.

including our penises and vaginas.

there was a long thread with this title about inserting the words penis and vagina into movie titles, but when I search the lounge for it, this is all I come up with it

it was a classic thread

I would certainly have nothing to do with such a juvenile thread.

(Last time I looked it was on page 3.)

some coincidence and it doesn't seem to bear any relation to the body of your post or to recipes

here is the thread for those looking for it
