    METHOD

    Wrap the seitan round in cheesecloth and tie the ends together with cooking twine. Place the seitan in the centre of a 4-quart (3.8 L) slow cooker, then pour in the water, broth, and tamari. Tuck the herbs into the vegetables as you go around the seitan.

    Cook for 4 to 6 hours on low, covered, until the seitan is firm, and the vegetables are tender. When the seitan is done, unwrap it and slice it to serve. Distribute the slices and vegetables among four plates.
    RECIPE NOTES

    This recipe is ideal for bulk cooking because it can be doubled and used in a larger slow cooker to achieve the same results. This is especially useful during the holidays!

    If you like your seitan browned, place the roast and vegetables in an oven-safe dish once it has finished slow cooking. Before serving, roast it for 15 minutes at 375°F (190°C or gas mark 5).
