I feel guilty of using a lot of plastic wrap to make these... But I haven't thought of a good substitute. If you have a good idea, please share in the comment!
There are reusable sausage casings from silicone, used for steaming. I use small rectangular boxes for the same effect (they are actually used for giant german sausage known as "Leberkäse").
I didn't even realize the plastic wrap wouldn't melt... I usually wrap seitan sausages in parchment paper and secure it with tinfoil. Sometimes after they are cooked I wrap them in rice paper as the "sausage casing". Have you ever tried using soaked tapioca pearls to give the illusion of fat, I was thinking of trying?
I wrap my sausages in baking paper and steam them instead of boiling. It takes longer, but I avoid plastics altogether and, possibly, avoid chemical "spilling" onto the sausages.
Hi! I don't know whether you will read this comment. I make something similar, and I wrap them in a piece of fabric 100% cotton, and I tied them in the edges with cooking twine. I wash the piece of cotton after to reuse it. When I want them warm, I fold the sausage in rice paper, and I stir fry it in some olive oil. Thus, you can eat it as a whole. Blessings!
My substitute for plastic wrap : I roll my sausages in parchment paper and bake them over low heat for 45 mn, then I remove the paper and boil the pre-cooked sausages in broth.
Thank you for the comment! Comments are my energy for keeping going on the channel. I'm glad you like my recipe. Hope you enjoy cooking and eating these too!
I like the tapioca starch as a skin idea. Definitely stealing that trick. :) I've tried rice paper, but have ended up with a bunch at the end (after frying) that did not feel good when eating.
I don’t like using plastic with heated food if I can avoid it but boy this looks like it’s going to be yummy! I wonder if it could be put in a bamboo steamer instead?
I might kind of kitbash your recipe. However, instead of plastic wrap, I'm going to use egg roll wrappers. I may also add in some Marmite. In addition, since I don't have vital wheat gluten, I'll be using WTF yo nake the seitan
I'm so lucky to have found your RUclips channel. You make amazing Seitan in such a simple way w simple ingredients. I'm a fan! I've seen people make vegan sausages using a cheese cloth or steamer cloth. Have you ever tried this?
Glad you enjoy my video! I use gauze in some of other seitan recipes, but I've never used it in this. I guess this recipe needs some adjustments in case of using gauze or cheese cloth. Thank you for your suggestion!
Does the no kneading improve the texture? I've tried other recipes that make you knead a long time or use a food processor and in my opinion the result is often too rubbery.
I was going to ask if there is an alternative to the plastic wrap? maybe use like the corn husks? It does look interesting and i have it on my list to try soon!
They have another recipe on this channel for making vegan pastrami that is similar (also it's really good, I've tried it) but uses parchment paper, however the loaf is baked not boiled. Maybe it's possible to steam them in parchment paper? This recipe looks good but I'm also wary of using plastic wrap at high-ish temps. Aluminum foil might also work. I think they use plastic wrap to get "sausage-like" ends from the mold it makes.
Thank you! I completely forgot parchment paper!(In Japan, it is called "baking paper". Words restricts thoughts!) I think parchment paper can be boiled!
I agree about boiling parchment/baking paper but probably mentioned steaming to avoid letting water inside. Although, I imagine wrapping enough and securing enough, as above poster, works just fine. I've embarrassingly still not been making this or similar, preoccupied with life challenges. Sending wishes for good health and expansive joy~
They look Amazing... but I'm your an environmentalist ... what about all that plastic going into the land fill. And the chemicals from the plastic wrap going into your food?

You can only use cotton-cloth and steam the wrapped sausages. Another option are silicon molds you can buy. But the cloths are more susrainable.
They look great. Gotta test this.
I use oven safe silicone snack bags and quart bags, depending on the size I want. Also doubles as a marinade bag.

That looks amazing

Rubbery in the result means undercooked.
There is no problem with being rubbery in the middle of the process.

Wow, corn husks! I like your idea! I'll try!
@@ajapaneseveganskitchench oh nice, I will wait for a video one day and see how it turns out!
@@mjstecyk Glad you deeply understand my intention of each process!
@mjstecyk I sometimes use parchment paper to steam in Instant Pot. Don't even tie the end, works out anyway.

Looks good but how does it taste?
So many people prefer gluten free eating for health reasons these days. What would the substitute for the gluten powder you are using in this recipe ?
What's the song playing in the background?
what firmness of tofu do you use for this recipe?
Have you ever tried it with soy free tofu?
Maybe use parchment paper wrapped again in aluminum foil or just parchment and steam the links. Looks delicious. 😊🙏

Use parchment paper I use it all the time

Is the chili “chili powder” or like cayenne?
Your choice. I used simple chili pepper, just because I had it in hand.
What is the "stock power" that is added, please?
You don't call it stock powder?
You call it bouillon powder? Same thing.
What is nooch?
It's the short name for nutritional yeast 😃
@@ChristineBootyxD, I was wondering the same thing, thanks for the explanation.

I guess this is silken soft tofu?
It sure looks like it to me, yes.
plastic leaches into sausage

Everyone's a fuckin critic! Don't use the damn plastic if you don't want to! Damn
Hahaha, all comments contribute to the algorithm!
