I bought it pre done in glasses in a zero waste store, so there has to be online ways too. I just buy the powder that you then mix with broth etc (make a roast with redwine etc if youre fancy) into a kneaded dough. boil it, roast it if u want, and finish in the oven.
instead of buying powder that you mix with water, you can also make it yourself for dirt cheap. its literally just the protein component of flour “gluten”. so you take flour and rinse it (videos online if needed) in water. then rewash the remaining clumps until you all the carbohydrates are washed out (coloring the water white).
its suuuper high in protein/g even higher than meats, since it literally basically only protein;
that said make sure to complement it with other amino acid profiles that are high in lysine (legumes/nuts/seeds/nutr. yeast) througout the day (PDCAAS, a concept overtaking the widespread biological value)
Also a tip: add a percentage of flour (up to like 30/40% maximum) to make the texture way more pleasurable but still hold together. You can then mix in 100% seitan strings to diversify the textures even more (and increasing protein count back). look for videos online for different roasts to make it more tasty, i personally like the pure gummy texture and taste, but you can do alot to remove that and add oretty much every taste profiles youd like
its preparation success is a little bit of a science for itself, so you gotta experiment and make more smaller batches rather than bigger ones
any brand should do really. currently using the “veganz” brand one but only cause it was available.
EIDT make sure to post it on lemmy’s vegan forums :D

thats what it looks like
I had no idea there was powder thanks so much! Any brands you’d recommend? I’ll get some now
