Thanks for recipe - I'm just wondering if you have any ideas for how to create less waste (ie. the foil wrappings) when making these? The reason for making them at home is because the ones in the stores are always wrapped in plastic. Alternatively, how does the foil do during the process? Is it possible to reuse it? Thanks!

These are great! I've made them before although a little different on some of the ingredients. Definitely get the texture right and perfect for corn dogs!!! I've had to steam mine a little bit longer though to firm them up properly.

Turned out pretty durn good on the very first try! I can always tweak the spicing a little - maybe try making it more of a Hot-Link or something. Certainly took care of that hot-dog craving and then some.

the technique works, the spice balance works, but there's nowhere near enough salt so they are offensive to my palate. I'm going to add a teaspoon or two of salt and boil them in really salty stock and more fat then report back.might help. I'm going to redo these and adjust until they are tasty.

I carefully followed recipe but these taste like vital wheat gluten. Need more spice?

Great way to get a hot dog fix! I smiled the whole time I was making these. It was fun recipe to make. The dough smelled like hot dogs, so that was encouraging. The dough was really sticky. I used some flour on my hands to roll them. I only made six and think they would have been better smaller to get the eight that the recipe said it would yield. I'm not a huge fan of cumin, so I cut that in half and added a little dry mustard. I think next time I might add a bit more ketchup. They were really good served on a bun with some kraut, just what I was craving. The texture might take some getting used to, but they were fine with the kraut. I'm not sure how I well I'll like them plain. They looked great, much better than I expected. Thanks for posting this fun recipe!

I steamed in my Instant Pot for 45 minutes. That might have been a bit of overkill, but I've had Seitan not fully cooked/steamed in the past. I was looking to avoid any evidence of that slightly gluey texture!

I'm an ethical vegan, atheist, wife and stay-at-home mother of a 7 year old DD and 1 year old DS. I have also been known to hug a tree from time to time, but I don't do it professionally. I love life, walk around in awe of the universe, and am always made happier by things that smell delicious. Like pumpkin pie spice. And turmeric.We've been vegan since Fall '08, and are just starting to feel like we know the tricks of the trade...and Recipezaar has certainly made the transition easier. Yey Recipezaar!
