Gluten is a plant-based protein composed of gliadin and glutenin. Add an appropriate amount of water and a little salt to the flour, stir well to form a dough, and then wash it repeatedly with water to wash away all the starch and other impurities in the dough, and the rest is gluten. Form the gluten into a ball with your hands, put it into a hot oil pan and fry until golden brown, then take it out.

New gluten

Gluten products using the latest technology and packaging have a strong taste, are safe and hygienic, and can be used for stir-fry, hot pot, cold salad and barbecue.

Ingredients

Put the flour in a container, add water equivalent to 60% of the weight of the flour (water contains 1% of salt), mix thoroughly, and process into a sticky dough. Then let it stand for 1 hour. In summer, the standing time can be slightly shorter to prevent it from turning sour. Do not add too much water, otherwise the protein will be dispersed in the water before it can bond, which will make the operation difficult and affect the gluten extraction rate.

Shaping

Place the dough in a dense sieve or coarse cloth and pour water on it. When kneading and washing, the starch will flow away with the water, leaving behind the sticky dough in the sieve or cloth. The protein is wet gluten. The more times it is washed, the lower the starch inclusion rate in the gluten, the higher the protein content, and the better the quality. Generally, it needs to be washed 3 to 5 times. The water in which the flour is washed contains a large amount of starch, and wheat starch can be obtained through precipitation. The moisture content of wet gluten is 38 and the protein is about 60. It has a smooth surface, sufficient elasticity and good toughness.
