Servings: 6
Equipment
- Food steamer
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup corn flour or chickpea flour
- 2/3 cup vital wheat gluten
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 2 tsp Onion flakes
- 1 tbsp Nutritional yeast
- 1/4 tsp Anise seed
- 1/4 tsp Fennel seed
- 1/2 tsp Oregano
- 1/2 tsp Parsley
- 1/2 tsp Cumin
- 1/2 cup Rehydrated soy mince Mix 1/2 dehydrated soy mince (textured vegetable protein) with 1/3 cup of hot vegetable broth to rehydrate.
- 2 tsp Maple syrup
- 3 tsp Soy sauce
- Water Add water 1/4 cup at a time until the mixture forms a sticky dough - about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of water in total.
Instructions
- Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir to combine. Add the soy mince and wet ingredients to the bowl, and stir. Remember to add the water 1/4 cup at a time until a sticky dough forms. Fold the sausage mixture over itself and knead until thoroughly mixed.
- Divide the mixture into 6 pieces, and roll each into a sausage shape. The sausages will expand when steamed, so form them smaller than the intended finished size.
- Place each sausage into a steamer basket and steam for 35 minutes.
- Fry or barbecue immediately for about 5 minutes or refrigerate the sausages for later use.
Notes
Feel free to customize the spices according to your preferences. You can make the sausages spicy by adding red pepper flakes. The above seasoning mix is a nice general sausage seasoning that works well as a stand-alone breakfast sausage or for a hot dog type sausage served on a bun. These sausages are slightly smoky with a touch of sweet.
