Thanks! Of course you can come visit. I'...Penny,<br />Thanks! Of course you can come visit. I've been preparing food all day and now am going to relax until the guests arrive. I just hope everything tastes good - I always worry like that. When I first started making the seitan, it involved a lot of bad language, as you call it, and was quite traumatic. Now I've got it figured out, and it's a snap. No problem at all. <br /><br />Dreaminitvegan,<br />Thank you. Of course all the pictures are from past Thanksgivings and are no guarantee this year's will be good. I sure hope so.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-38713438134989301062010-11-25T14:23:36.656-08:002010-11-25T14:23:36.656-08:00Happy Thanksgiving it looks great!Happy Thanksgiving it looks great!dreaminitveganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13036912040629825367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-57596676871322348332010-11-25T07:12:04.482-08:002010-11-25T07:12:04.482-08:00This all looks SO GOOD!

Seitan wouldn't be your meal of choice ...Aimee,<br />Seitan wouldn't be your meal of choice if you avoid gluten. It does taste pretty good, and has a satisfying chewy texture. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.<br /><br />Shellyfish,<br />If you follow the link in the post you'll see how I do it, but I don't have a recipe. You can make your favorite seitan based on about 6 cups of vital wheat gluten and 1/2 cup of chickpea flour. Make your favorite stuffing, roll out the seitan and fill it. Bake covered for about two hours, then uncover and bake until done, basting occasionally. This is vague, I know, but I always forget the details. Last year I wrote it all down and then misplaced the directions.<br /><br />Emily,<br />I hope you try the un-turkey and post about it. I'm really curious. I made the seasoning mix yesterday and will probably use it to make our seitan, though I do hate tampering with my tried-and-true method of just throwing things into the bowl. We'll see. Happy Thanksgiving to you.<br /><br />Jessica,<br />Thanks! Happy Thanksgiving to you, too.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-3202819438507668892010-11-25T04:56:22.235-08:002010-11-25T04:56:22.235-08:00Happy Thanksgiving!

We'll have all of our family at the table this year and everyone is bringing a dish.<br /><br />Rose,<br />I figure if the salad doesn't work raw, I can always cook it on Friday. Or Saturday. Or whenever it becomes necessary to cook again.<br /><br />Your wellingtons sound delicious I hope we get to see a picture.<br /><br />Zoa,<br />If I'm not too burned out from cooking, I'll take photos of everything. In any case, I'll report back on the salad. Un-turkey doesn't have to look real, but I'm curious about the taste and texture. The seitan is baked, boiled and baked again with a yuba "skin." That sounds like a lot of work. Mine is only baked. <br /><br />I believe you already had Thanksgiving in Canada. But, I suppose you could celebrate twice.<br /><br />Melody,<br />Thanks! I hope everything turns out. I'm trying a couple of new recipes including the pumpkin pie, which is making me a little nervous. Pumpkin pie is my favorite part of the meal.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146578985330272891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2279822094292237889.post-61534858534285005642010-11-24T17:05:48.069-08:002010-11-24T17:05:48.069-08:00Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy American Thanksgiving to you all, your menu sounds fab but let us know about that raw butternut salad. Unturkey, no, way too real, even though it isn't. Portabella wellingtons, Rose?
