Directions

  1. Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onions, and garlic, saute until browned, about 10 minutes. Add pinto beans, soy sauce, truffle oil, salt, and pepper, mix well.

  2. Transfer mixture to the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth, the filling should be paste-like. Set aside to cool while you make the seitan.

  3. Combine wheat gluten, yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, and lemon pepper in a medium mixing bowl.

  4. Mix cold water and wine together in a separate bowl. Stir in molasses and liquid smoke until dissolved. Add liquid mixture to wheat gluten mixture and stir to a dough-like consistency.

  5. Separate dough into 2 rolls and knead each until dough feels similar to pizza dough, 3 to 4 minutes. Stretch each portion into an 8x10-inch oblong shape, being careful not to create holes in the dough.

  6. Spread cooled filling equally onto each piece of dough and roll up tightly, like a jelly roll. Wrap each roll with aluminum foil and twist ends closed tightly.

  7. Place a steamer insert into a large saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring to a boil. Add foil-wrapped seitan rolls, cover, and steam for 1 hour.

  8. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  9. Unwrap steamed seitan rolls and place in a roasting pan. Baste with olive oil.

  10. Bake in the preheated oven until browned, about 20 minutes.
