This beefy seasoning blend is the perfect base for any seitan or vegan recipe that you want to beef up! Adds complexity and umami to any dish.
This blend makes 21+ tablespoons, which should be enough to season approximately 16 "steaks," 2 large, or 4 small roasts.
Ingredients
5 tbsp porcini mushroom powderSometimes I buy the powder, sometimes I grind my own from dehydrated porcini mushrooms. Grinding your own has more flavor than any powder I've tried, but it seems to cost about the same for me and buying pre-ground saves the work!
5 tbsp onion powder
2 tbsp salt
1 tbsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp coarse ground black pepper
2 tsp instant coffee
Directions
1
Pulse all ingredients in a food processor or muddle together into a fine powder.
2
Store in an air tight container. Should keep for several months.

What does the porcini bring to the mixture?
To me, it’s the beefiest-tasting mushroom and packs a lot of umami.
