Vegan Seitan Corned Beef

[hansshna]

This tasted nothing like corned beef :(

More like meatloaf

[Romancoinz]

@hansshna I have made several and changed some of the spices used, so tweak it a bit to your liking, it will make a difference.

[VelveetaCheeze]

this is just awful, this doesnt even come close to corned beef. i am now naseous from watching this

[amhung]

hey Brian .. thank you so much for this recipe presentation. i cannot pinpoint the reason (maybe your calming 3rd grade teacher tone of voice?) .. but your video just cured me of my seitanophobia. soon after becoming a vegan in june 2010 i purchased some powdered seitan by the pound and read tons of recipes online. daunting. scary. time-consuming. after 4 months i tossed the stale untouched stuff.

now i know i will soon buy it again .. and this time do it! thanks again.

[mackles]

I've got some hot seitan corned beef farts tonight

[generationretard]

fuck you. you guys expect people to pay for your recipes? assholes who dont share their recipes are why people think its hard to go vegan. and how about you come up with a recipe that doesnt cost an arm and a leg. wheat gluten is no where near readily available

[hellspawn781]

Hail Seitan!

[Poodleinacan]

With added Vitamin K12!

[SuperAttractive]

IIIUUGH

[cheskydivision]

I love how you stack up all the little dishes and keep everything neat while you work.. You are a man that can cook in my kitchen anytime.... I'm making this this week I know it will come out nice.

[TwiPrime]

@cheskydivision Hi, I wondered, did you make it? How did it turn out? How was the texture? Was it very chewy?

[cheskydivision]

@TwiPrime I actually made the sausage but boiled it in broth and cheese cloth instead of steaming in foil. have used this dough with my combo of seasoning and made them hamburger patty size in broth. I don't think you can mess up any of the recipes it all comes down to the flavorings. I love not having to knead.

[Kastenkopf100]

great =D wanna try it out =O first i said wtf cheese? vegan ooohm? xD

[Romancoinz]

Great Recipe, healthy and tasty. Vegan and Vegetarians never have to give up taste and the best part about eating vegan is it's cheap and you can eat as much as you want and never have to worry about cholesterol and all the nasty hormones in meat and dairy.

[MartyredxMaiden]

@Romancoinz true!

[seaprizm]

did you use a commercial slicer, or what do you recommend to get slices so thin?

[JaspersonianRules]

...no one can force you to be vegan but for the sake of the animals, I hope you at least, give it a try ... my sentiments exactly. Thank you chrissup19isgay

[cali4niasunshine]

why is everydaydish.tv down?

[MrQuagmire26]

Seitan.. almost like Satan.

[hellokittymaxx]

@MrQuagmire26 Yes, almost. But not nearly as delicious.

[VitalityMassage]

Wheat is not healthy. I got rid of that looong before I even stopped eating meat! Wheat AND dairy are major bad foods. Pure wheat gluten is the concentrated version of this bad food. This sticky gluten creates mucoid plaque in the digestive system that clogs your ability to absorbe nutrients. This is the truth.

[eineveronika]

seitan; fennel seeds + caraway seeds; hungarian paprika; black pepper; granulated onion; ground cloves; salt = dry ingredients

vegetable broth; olive oil, vinegar, molasses = wet ingredients

[PureMurdurz]

Before I was vegetarian, I liked my corned beef nice and salty, would not adding the molasses keep that salty flavor and make not not sweet? I don't thing I would like sweet corned beef.

[hansshna]

I'm a vegan, and I love seitan. My boyfriend and I made this dish for my family last night. We followed everything step for step and were super excited for the final product. After cutting off the cheesecloth and trying a piece we discovered it tasted nothing like corned beef. it was more like dry meatloaf. I would highly recommend NOT making this dish if you are a former corned beef lover, or are thinking of trying it out on meat eaters.

[metriagusano]

ALELUYA¡¡¡

finally a super easy setian ,no knead (thank GOD), NO WATER WASTE, NO TIME WASTE¡¡¡ just, mix , cover, boil, cut ...enjoy¡¡¡ so easy thank you now I'm trying to make my easy home made setian that THAT IS HUMANLY POSIBLE FOR ME some vegan nugets thank you sooooooooooooo much

i can't belive it's soo easy

[kanooodler]

i like your hat.

[gaaralover701]

too much work to get all of these vegan stuff...tried converting, but stayed a carnivore.

[sk0616]

@gaaralover701 OR OMNIVORE?

[Poodleinacan]

@gaaralover701 That's the spirit!, Being omnivore gives you all the vitamines you need! (Proper alimentation requierd.)

[VampireMaiden06]

Can you use a slow cooker for this recipe?

[br00k39]

HAIL SEITAN!

[jaycore86]

how important is the EXACT amount of each ingedient. you didnt explain how much of each spice to use.

[PRESTOTHECAT]

Nice video.

Try mixing Earth Balance with freshly grated horseradish.

[maryshelleysman]

Nice spice blend. Kneading gives the seitan texture otherwise it is rubbery. I have tried it so this must be kind of rubbery in texture? I add 1/2 C Dark Red Kidney beans, blend liquids with beans in blender then slowly add the dry until a dough forms. Then knead well. Rest, Knead again, scissor in thick strips then braise at 350 in a covered baking dish with a little stock with red wine vin. 45 covered, turn , replensih with 1/2 C stock then uncovered for 15.

[AlinaTowers]

I look forward to trying this. I've been making the turkey roll for awhile, this one is new. I'm experimenting with making a fish version of this recipe with seaweed and mushroom for flavoring....

[laughingspeakers]

the chef is mighty cute.

[laughingspeakers]

so, why do other seitan recipes call for kneading if it's not necessary?

[sage0925]

Awesome job, Chef Brian!

And to the meat lover, I am NOT a vegetarian. I eat seitan because it's close enough to meat, at WAY less the price. Have YOU checked the price of a corned beef brisket lately? And my seitan chicken nuggets certainly taste better than the real thing. Factory farmed meat isn't something I eat in any case. Inhumane killings, and dubious quality. I raise my own chickens and eggs, but for the rest, it's seitan. You can have that e.coli crap they sell at the grocery.

[tickyul]

Natural or not, I feel best when my diet is mainly composed of cooked animal. I believe that it has become very trendy for people to consider meat as bad and unhealthy, I feel nothing is further from the truth. Meat has a list of health benefits that make just about every other food (except eggs) look pretty weak in comparison. From the high quality absorbable amino acid profile to the very absorbable iron it contains, meat is a great food.

[toutlesag]

I'm not vegan nor vegetarian, and I'm Chinese. I grew up eating seitan. I eat it not because of the need for extra protein, in which seitan is very rich, but because it is delicious! Thank you for your recipe, which I think would be very popular in Far East Asia, which has a lot of vegetarians/vegans, and where a lot of them like to experiment with new tastes!

[Gabrielitodlp]

Looks delicious; have to try it @ home.

[hendotintco]

cool so seitan=fake. sweet didn't know that. good luck with your videos.

[truth2748]

Vegan seitan "Corned beef" how imaginative is that. Is not beef you idiot.

[Cuteyboy09]

soooo yummy im soo hungry right now!!

[Cuteyboy09]

yummmy!!

[omnivorenomore]

Cannot wait to try!!!

[SkyBindi]

how long does this loaf keep ? how long can you keep it in the fridge before it goes bad ?

[spaindutchland]

thats a nice hat.

[truth2748]

Omit the word beef from your recipes. It's unnecessary, and not very Vegan.

[Jubaliee]

@truth2748 you're obnoxious, omit yourself from leaving comments haha

[iXNineR]

Oh for pity's sake, Truth2748. Using the word doesn't mean anything has died. I make beef-effect seitan but it's cow free. Get a grip on what's important in this world.

[TubuMacu]

Feels like a rich vegan. 5 Sheese choices (lol)

Damn, all people have gluten-powder, but not me!

Looks very tasty, your corned-beef.

[radhavinod]

gluten can be made of wheat powder, simply washing the starch out of it

[Kuba77]

Love the recipe thank you!

[FM897]

That looks amazing. I'm so hungry now!

[CrossleyAllan]

I think it's great that so much effort goes towards creating this awareness; Does anyone else feel the chef seems embarresed though?

[xXSuicideJackXx]

....I thínk i´ll make a sandwich now..^^

[idra69it]

it is a very useful and nice video, maestro have good hand-working , thank you from Italy ( and yes, i dont catch the seeds what are of...) did i wrote something in english or what....ciao

[anacelestenz]

to have options makes me so happy! Thannks From New Zealand!

[tilldawn2430]

Haven't tried seitan yet (just became vegan a while ago), but I got to try this out. This sure looks great!

[chrysenes41]

This is a great recipe! I love it

[Enrico1322]

HI! I'm italian so i didn't understend all the ingredients to do your seitan!

Can someone write them?

Sorry for the english ;) Thank you!

[Skylinerev]

I would write the ingredients down for you but the video will not load for me :O

Sorry :(

[everydaydish]

You can find the whole printable recipe on our website everydaydish(dot)tv

Happy cooking!

[beernutia]

Has anyone tried this yet ?

[fungipie]

Wow! That looks delicious! During St. Patty's day when I was a kid my mom always made corned beef and cabbage, which I sorely missed when I became vegan. I'd love to share this recipe with her as she's now vegetarian herself!

[bluehoneycomb]

How else can you eat this corned beef with? what about barb-q sauce? Any other varieties?

[bluehoneycomb]

Nice kitchen. Thanks for the recipe! I will try this!

[juliansmoma]

This looks really good!

[xthesexxx]

what if you don't have a cheesecloth?

[thevegancook]

use a tea towel.

[twat4556]

this doesnt look to hard to make...but i dont think corned beef is something veggies usually miss!

And vital wheat gluten flour thingy, whatever its called, is nearly impossible to find in the UK!

[OneFeistyScorpio]

If the ideals and beliefs of a vegan is to not eat meat because they don't condone the killing of animals, then why are there so many vergan recipes that try to mimic meat? It's really funny to me. I say stay true to what you believe in, throw out your "Sheese" and stick to eating raw veggies.

[HellsBellsD100]

How is it "funny" to you? When you grow up eating real meat it is rather difficult to adapt to a new lifestyle such as vegetarianism/veganism. Do not knock it until you have actually experienced the change. Do not hate, it isn't worth it.

[twat4556]

Most vegans werent born vegan. And especially for newbies, its easier to switch to vegan, if you have foods that are similar.

also, many people like the tatse of animal products, they just dont like the cruelty involved, so they have fake versions.

And we dont live off raw veggies, you f*cking nincompoop, get a life.

[trechan]

hmm, very interesting (as I'm not vegan or vegetarian) I really don't think any of which looks like a Reuben sandwich

[psyexmachina]

How do I get the actual recipe? He doesn't specify amounts.

[xShakespearex]

I don't understand... I'm a vegetarian... but I never understood why people who are vegetarian (or vegan) try to get their food to taste like meat :S Can anyone help me out lol?

[mandarinmelon]

Haha, that's an imortant question that is not often addressed among us vegetarians. I think what it comes down to is our conditioning as we grew up. I don't know many vegetarians who were raised as such, and omitting meat straight out poses an issue...since we KNOW meat tastes GOOD. It does, disgusting as it may be. But kowing the source definitely ruins the fun.

[mandarinmelon]

....The ability to create culinary facsimiles though is a fun and satisfying way to remain true to our consciences... not to mention just another way for us to "stick it to the man".

[xShakespearex]

Ahh... thank you very much =]

[trishastarr33]

I'm Vegan and although it is ABSOLUTELY wrong to kill animals to eat, they do taste good. They smell good and taste good. That's the only reason people eat it. So, if we come out with products that taste like meat, theoretically, more people will go vegetarian because they wont have to give up that 'good' taste. And more animals will be saved :D

[xShakespearex]

Ahh I see your reasoning here. However, as much as we would all like it to happen, it seems just as pointless as the Jews asking Hitler to stop. Not all of the people in the world will stop eating meat... my family just out of plain stubborness :S

[trishastarr33]

I'm not saying everyone will go vegan or vegetarian. I'm just saying that the reason people come out with 'meat-like' products is so that it is easier for people to stop eating meat :]

[archeeizm]

yaknow just for that stupid comment Im gonna go out and shoot a couple cats livin in my barn.

[Cowmandan55]

Is it wrong to kill an animal just to watch it suffer? I don't know where you are going with this comment, you live once why don't have the real thing. I LOVE MEAT.

[HellsBellsD100]

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, however, why are you even watching this then? Is it to instigate fights with individuals who are not attempting to start any trouble and are only trying to discover new recipes? Get out

[trishastarr33]

We can't argue ethically here. Ethics are a matter of opinion and apperently you have a stong one. I choose not to eat meat because in my opinion, it is very cruel and there is no reason to be cruel to those creatures who have done nothing to deserve it. Besides, humans aren't naturally meant to eat meat anyways.

[twat4556]

you are such a retard.

Just because you dont care about cruelty to animals, doesnt mean you should post stupid statements on our videos.

[archeeizm]

Cuz its MEAT!! Thats why we are top of the food chain. Grind that shit up! fuckin veggie munchers are pussies.

[HellsBellsD100]

Real mature loser. If you do not agree with this then do not watch it. Not all of us wish to eat meat, no matter what each of our reasonings are. Grow up.

[JohnnySoprano87]

Lol, he says "Satan" and "Pap-Reeka" ...sorry :O

[kareblue]

thank you for posting this new ways ,lol to learn to cook gluten , me first time I cooked it was hell, but that was over 20 years ago lol know better now haha eat and learn kareblue ;op

[cubuwu]

I love your recipes!! I cant get hold of gluten flour here..would it be ok to use bread flour? Obviously when your boil it more starch will come out..but do you think it will work at all?

[rexrhino]

I think you can do it with whole wheat flour... Not the really starchy white flour.

[AnonNov]

you get gluten from wheat flour. Just take flour made from wheat, mix it with water so you get a dough that's just barely sticky. Let it rest in cold water for 2 hrs and then rinse it in hot water 7-10 times. What's left is the gluten.

[casasemanas]

Where's the mustard? You gotta have mustard in a Ruben sandwich, or at least I do. Anyway, it looks great, and what FUN it is to make fake meat stuff.

[Caltwentynine]

I have to make this.... That is awesome!

[Medracin]

where did u get that information from? I did my own bit of research, and found that the results are incunlusive and not enough evidence has been found to prove that gulten has a negative affect on the human body. An expermient was just completed in April 2008, but the results have not yet been released. I guess we'll just have to wait for the definite answer. By the way, I may be slightly biased though I try not to be as I am vegan.

[Airox180]

I cut out all grain products from my diet and feel like a new person. Eventhough I don`t have celiac disease, I can feel a huge difference if I eat gluten or not. The human being is not prepared to eat gluten. Grain products have only been around for a few thousand years, whereas veggies, fruits, fish and meat have always been a source of food for the human beeing.

[ashaneomacattack]

I'm sure you will be pleased to find out, then, that science has recently come into a preponderance of evidence stating that red meat is unhealthy and can lead to many health problems for the individual who consumes it regularly.

[globalgoblin]

Being one who adheres to a strict vegan diet myself, I'm gonna give this one a try. I'm one of those guys who hate preparing foods but love eating, so I usually just go to stores that cater to vegetarians and buy all those already prepared, just heat-and-serve goodies. But I'm gonna try my hand at making some stuff at home. Gotta learn sooner or later. Thanks.

[shakuhachi]

i came across this as i have been making my own seitan recently. Enjoyed this till you started adding all the processed crap to the sandwhich at the end :)

[Elxploited]

I'm gonna make it but...with real beef.

[Medracin]

it's your choice. I personally think that seitan is better (due to moral values) but oh well, no one can force u to b vegan.

[chrissup19isgay]

try with seitan (substitute beef), just try it and you will see its delicious. As Medracin said, noone can force you to be vegan but for the sake of the animals, i hope you at least, give it a try.

Thanks and God bless

[Medracin]

well said

[chevon2020]

Well, I'm gonna make this. This should be interesting!

[bboydelta9]

good video..

[piper77]

seitan=satan. the devil's meat!

[Zianexx]

hehehe :)

[nursemich]

Wow, thanks, I can't wait to try it! I'll post back how it turns out!

[catlover1968]

This is terrific and delicious! I never thought of the molasses before!  :-)

Thanks for the inspiration!

[Frostypeanut]

Oh my GOD. I hate everything about reuben sandwiches and this makes me want to eat one so bad.

[Isncee]

Oh my god, WANT. I miss rubens.

cheesecloth! that's a great idea for simmering the seitan.

[BrookieLouLV]

dude right on.. i would have never thought you could make a meatless corned beef :p

[tyckmhris]

this s so exciting, i cant wait to try it!

[Mzinterested1]

I can't wait to make this.....

[SitchCorp]

I haven't had a ruben sandwich in since going vegan. I just may try this. His technique with not kneading the gluten and using cheesecloth looks like a good option for making seiten. I recently made seiten and the outside was a little spongy(maybe I didn't knead my gluten long enough)

[juliemac3]

The outside will get spongy if you let it boil too high for too long. You want it to simmer, not boil. The recipe for Simple Seitan in Veganomicon explains it pretty well. Hope this helps. :)

[SitchCorp]

I did eventually try the seitan recipe from Veganomicon and had much better luck. Now, I make seitan regularly and yes, I finally had my ruben sandwich. I don't particularly care for cheese(vegan or otherwise), but my ruben sandwich still turned out great. Thanks for the tip--seitan is so versitile.

[lilicali]

I'm definetely doing this recipe! I made a seitan for christmas with some baked potatos... but I just have to try this one.

Very nice video! Well done!

Keep up the good work!

[wombatstew1]

Hi.  Since vegans don't eat cheese, what is the stuff you called 'sheese' in the demo?

[everydaydish]

Sheese is a delicious vegan cheese product made in the UK. You can also find it in stores in the US and I think Canada too.

[RoZioNoiR]

sheese is not that great IMO try to find cheezly, that stuff melts like real cheese, mozarella/darkcheddar/lightche­ddar/feta/etc they have alt of different flavours

[twheel8]

That looks great! This is something to try for sure! THANKS

[kdshane]

I was thrilled when I saw your video. Although you didn't give the amounts of each ingredient, I had just bought your cookbook and knew I would find the amounts there! But, as you know this recipe isn't in the cookbook. Please send the the exact amounts of each ingredient for this recipe. I am a vegan and have a large group of carnivores coming for dinner next wekend and I really want to serve this. Thanks so much.

[everydaydish]

Hi kd, All of our recipes can be viewed, downloaded or printed from our website. Please visit everydaydish(.)tv, navigate to the recipes of your choice. Thanks for watching and good luck with your group. I'm sure that they will love it. The flavor is amazing!

[FaiththeHairstylist]

I'm very excited to try this recipe!

[rippanation]

I dont want to come over clever here but i am going to try this but also vegans please look around your house? even though you dont have anything to do with animal products, wether for health reasons or choice reasons but think about how many animal products go into the stupidest things in your home you wouldnt normally think of. PS i am a carnivore.

[vrajavala]

great video and good recipe. The only thing is the name corned beef. I think that's kind of negative. Try calling it something else at least veggie corned beef.

[MrsMaggie]

sooo excited I have to try thissss! thank you...

[shortaybrown]

That looks great. A Tasty sandwich that even a hardcore meateater would love to sink his teeth into...

I like the idea of making textured veggie protein with cheese cloth etc....... can you show other Seitan recipes like this?

Thanks

[seekstruth]

Made this today - my first seitan. Thanks for putting all of your recipes up!

[videogrl123]

Looks like you vege meat has great texture. I am making this in the morning! Thanks!

[Sabyds]

I am so gonna make this! On Monday! -excited- !!!

[REALREVOLUTIONARY1]

looks really good
