Vegan Turkey Loaf

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Flax Egg

    In a small bowl, mix ground flaxseed with water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it thickens.

  2. 2

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, onion powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, dried sage, black pepper, and salt.

  3. 3

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together vegetable broth, soy sauce, olive oil, and the prepared flax egg.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes elastic.

  5. 5

    Shape the Loaf

    Shape the dough into a loaf and wrap it tightly in aluminum foil.

  6. 6

    Steam the Loaf

    Place the wrapped loaf in a steamer or a large pot with a steaming rack. Steam for 30-40 minutes.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Once cooked, unwrap the loaf and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with oyster mushroom gravy and stuffing.
