Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup vital wheat gluten
1/4 cup soy flour (can substitute chickpea
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
4 tsp paprika
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp black pepper
2/3 cup warm water
3 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp tomato paste (i sometimes use ketchup)
1 tsp liquid smoke
1/2 cup vital wheat gluten
2 tbsp soy flour
1 tbsp nuttitional yeast
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup warm water
3 tsp canola oil

Directions:

Mix the doughs up and form into balls, each one separately.
Break the red dough into 4 pieces and the white dough into 3-4 pieces. Flatten each piece and layer alternating colors on top of each other. This is your time to be creative. Once you have a big block of dough lay it on an oiled cutting board. Place another cutting board/saran wrap on top. Press your dough for at least 30 minutes.
After your dough has been pressed bake at 300F for 45 minutes. Your seitan will be a bit undercooked but this is what you want. It makes it easier to slice and it will pan-fry better.
Slice into bacon strips and pan fry to the desired crispness you like. Enjoy!
