How many ppm gluten would be in that? Wheat flour has about 80,000 ppm (i.e. 8% gluten) but just wondered about that gluten ball...

I'm a little bit confused... is this meant to be informative and instructional? I was hoping for a bit more on what the gluten ball and starch can be used for.

In my experiment, I cut up the gluten into little mini fillets, deep fried them till puffy, and used them as a meat substitute in a pot of veggie curry.

Great video, but you created a bernstein-egg!

I also taking experience on gluten-cooking and it's still

getting better each time. Is that ball the final product?

Gaining starch (Stärke) is a useful thing!

There are many other illnesses which have the same symptoms as coeliac disease, such as IBS. Just because a lack of grains makes you feel better, doesn't mean it'll happen to everyone.

I think that baking it develops flavor that you won't get from boiling. The browning you see on the outside of the ball adds a strong 'meaty' flavor. You can also achieve that flavor by frying.

The baked gluten works great when added to stews or when baked into a casserole.

Seriously, that's wonderful that it works for you. However, to assume that what works for you is something that works for every single person in the world is pure folly and can be dangerous. The author of the book can't speak for everyone's system, and neither can you. Each person is unique, chemically speaking. Reading ONE book by ONE author and then making such a blanket statement is ridiculous. You found what works for you, that's great. Now let others do the same without judgement, k?

I`ve been eating low carb with lots of veggies and moderate fruit intake for the last few years and feel great. What I found out is that whenever I eat grain products with gluten, I feel worse again, eventhough I don`t have celiac desease. Read the book from Dr. Lutz, Life without bread and found many interesting info.

Oh I KNOW!! Look at all those poor vegans dropping dead of heart attacks and clogged arteries...

You keep posting this on peoples' seitan video pages, coz I've seen it before. What makes you such a nutritional expert? Seitan has been around for CENTURIES, mate. I'd be alot more worried with all the crappy chemicals and corn syrup and saturated fat in the average modern diet. Gluten occurs naturally in plants, it's high in protein, low in carbs, contains no sat fat, cheap, and filling.

Gluten is very harmful for the human body. It is known today to be very unhealty for the human body. Even if you don`t have the so called celiac disease, gluten can greatly increase the risk of getting cancer or other diseases, even cardiovascular problems.

Why didn't you boiled it in the water before putting it into the oven?

I watched already few videos and non of them boiled it before baking.

Some guy even made seitan from gluten flour and water and bake it after (and didn't even boiled it prior baking).

I always boil, so I'm confused is this better or worse way of doing it?
