I've been trialing all kinds of ingredients to create a seasoning that would make a great base for seitan "pork" styles like chops and tenderloin. This one hits all the right notes for me - a little sweet, plenty savory and of course umami-packed!
This makes a total of about 10 tablespoons, which should be enough to season about 3 small "roasts" or 12 "chops." (I use about 3 heavy tablespoons when starting with 1kg of flour in my washed gluten to make seitan.)
Ingredients
1 ½ tbsp light brown sugar
1 tbsp dehydrated soy sauce powder I have tried using soy sauce in my seitan in place of using this powder and I think the flavor is more vibrant with the powder, plus if washing flour this saves you an additional wet ingredient.
1 tbsp onion powder
2 tsp dry thyme leaves
2 tsp salt
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp dried crushed rosemary
½ tsp sage
½ tsp dried ground mustard
½ tsp cumin
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.

Where do you get the dehydrated soya sauce?
I get it on Amazon, which you can find linked on the ingredient list or here if this helps: Soy Sauce Powder in a plastic container – (1 lb. [16 oz.] )
