Did you know you can get pure #protein from cheap white #flour ? Yup. And it's easy and dirt cheap.* Here's how: a) Rinse the Flour in the sink. b) Keep rinsing.* You want ALL the starch to go away. c) What's left?* Protein. d) Cook it in a salty broth.* [beef bullion, whatever] 'til it floats. e) Squish ALL the water out of it that you can. f) Treat it like raw meat.* Slice, cook, fry, bake, whatever. Easy. Called Seitan (pronounced Satan, sorry) or Wheat Gluten. My friend adds: For more precise extraction, try this: Make a dough; without any additives. Throw it into cold water and rinse until there's little to no cloudiness on water when you wash the dough (well, ex-dough...) Follow Ken's recipe to make a mock beef.
