Wheat Gluten 400g 400g

Westpoint and VitaMarket bring Vital Wheat Gluten in a convenient 400 g pack. This versatile gluten powder boosts dough strength and provides a high protein option for bread and plant based meals.

• High protein content: Vital Wheat Gluten contains about seventy five to eighty percent protein by dry weight, boosting dough strength and enabling a higher rise with a chewier crumb.
• 400 g pack: A compact, easy to store package that suits home baking and experimentation.
• Versatile uses: Ideal for bread dough, seitan making, and plant based meat substitutes to improve texture and chew.
• Neutral flavor and easy blend: Fine milled gluten powder mixes evenly into dry ingredients with little impact on taste.

Benefits include easier dough handling, higher loaf rise, and a chewy texture in bread. It also provides a robust plant based protein base for seitan and other meat substitutes, enabling richer texture without adding fats. The neutral taste means it blends well into most recipes, making it a practical addition for everyday baking and vegan cooking. Store in a cool dry place after opening to maintain freshness.

Recommended use

To boost protein and structure, mix Vital Wheat Gluten into flour before combining wet ingredients, or sprinkle into dough during mixing. For bread dough, start with a small amount and adjust based on bake results. For seitan, hydrate and knead with water and seasonings following your preferred method. Keep the package tightly closed and store in a cool, dry place to preserve freshness.
