Mock Turkey Roast Food

VEGAN TURKEY

Steps:

• Add 1 1/2 cups chickpeas, 1 cup broth, 2 tbsp nutritional yeast, 2 tbsp melted coconut oil, 2 tsp poultry seasoning, 2 tsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp onion powder to a food processor or blender.
• Blend for about 30 seconds until you have a thick liquid. (It's okay if there are still a few chunks of the beans in it.)
• Pour the liquid into a glass bowl (gluten will stick to plastic) and sprinkle 3/4 cup of gluten flour over it and fold it in with a silicone spatula.
• Sprinkle the remaining gluten flour over it and continue to fold it in. Once it gets firm, use your hands to knead the dough for about 30 seconds until all of the gluten is incorporated.
• Form the dough into one large loaf and wrap it tightly and completely in foil.
• Place the wrapped "turkey" in a large steamer basket, cover, and steam for 1 hour. (You can now eat the "turkey" or you can baste and bake it for more flavor.)

VEGAN TURKEY RECIPE (SEITAN)

Steps:

• Start by adding all the ingredients (except vital wheat gluten) to your food processor: chickpeas, water, bouillon, Braggs, seasonings, sesame oil and nutritional yeast. Process until smooth.
• Pour the puree into a large mixing bowl, scraping out as much as possible with a spatula. Add in the vital wheat gluten. Mix by hand until combined (it won't stick to your hands) Then kneed the dough 10-15 times. Shape into a log.
• Using a medium pot with a steamer insert. Place the turkey roll into the steamer part and fill the base of the pot with the veggie stock.
• Cover with the lid and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce to a good simmer and cook for 1 hour. Baste the roast after 30 minutes with a 1/3 cup of the hot stock and add a little more veggie stock if necessary to the bottom of pot.
• Once done remove the turkey loaf and cool on cutting board for at least 10 minutes. Slice thinly and serve. Or cool completely, refrigerate and slice as deli meat. Enjoy! (for best texture I recommend cooling in fridge overnight then continue with step 6) Step by step photos in the above post if necessary.
• Preheat oven 375° Add whole steamed turkey to a small casserole dish not much bigger than roast. Pour in the veggie broth (don't add broth until oven is preheated). Brush on all melted butter mixture. Bake uncovered 35 minutes, basting half way through, add splash extra broth if needed.
