Bob's Red Mill Vital Wheat Gluten Flour, 20oz (Pack of 1) - Vegan, Keto Friendly, Kosher

Since I bake whole grain breads, I use Bob’s Red Mill Vital Wheat Gluten Flour as an ingredient to condition the dough for improved texture and lightness. It does not have any effect on the bread’s carb count because only a teaspoon of vital wheat gluten is used in a loaf of bread. The 20 oz. pkg. is a value for the money because it will last for quite a while. The package easily seals well to keep it fresh and dry.

this is the one of the two secret ingredients i use to make a great detroit deep pan pizza. a couple of tablespoons of this mixed with the bread flour give it a flavor you can’t get with bread flour alone, but doesn’t overpower it with a wheat flavor either. works well and doesn’t change the texture of the dough. helps make the dough rise better during baking and is definitely not gluten free!

Although many people have stopped eating gluten, it is an important protein for making artisan breads. I use the gluten for making breads from croissants to 9-seeded whole wheat bread. You can simply sift the gluten with the flour. It helps the bread to rise and gives it a great texture. The gluten is packaged in plastic bags with ziplock tops. The size of the bag is perfect for about 5 to 10 loaves of bread...depending on the type of bread. The gluten smells and tastes fresh and hearty. I used to get gluten at the high end grocery store....but they stopped carrying it. I am grateful that Amazon continues to make this ingredient available.

If you bake bread and do other than plain white bread, this is a must. I try different types like true whole wheat and rye bread (pumpernickel). And many recipes call for a cup of all purpose or white flour because you need gluten to help with the rise, gluten is not in rye flour or whole wheat flour: at least not enough. My bread is strictly rye or whole wheat flour, so the gluten is necessary, or the loaf is a brick after it bakes. It cost a little more but you use a couple of tablespoons so it goes a long way. Bob’s Red Mill is always a good choice for a lot of things. And his gluten is good. I do recommend.

Perfect for bagels!

It’s good enough price and quality to order on short notice when one runs out, and is short of enough cash to order a 25 lbs or 50 lbs bag, but this is expensive, just not as expensive of those silly brands that treat every common ingredient as if you were buying caviar. As I eat this everyday turned into seitan for about half my calories I have to buy.

I recently purchased the Vital Wheat Gluten Flour (20oz) for my mom, who needed it to make vegan sausage. She's been struggling to find vegan sausage options at our local grocery stores, so I was happy to order this for her online. The item arrived very well-packaged and exactly as described, which is always a good start. My mom used this flour to make her vegan sausage, and she found the process surprisingly easy! The results were fantastic, and she was thrilled with how simple it was to work with. What truly makes this product stand out is the incredible value. Store-bought vegan sausage can be quite expensive, often around $9.99 for just 5.4 oz. With this 20 oz bag of Vital Wheat Gluten Flour, my mom can make approximately 12-15 oz of sausage, bringing the cost down to roughly $0.60 per ounce. That's a significant saving and makes enjoying homemade vegan sausage much more accessible. If you're looking to make your own vegan meat alternatives, especially vegan sausage, this Vital Wheat Gluten Flour is an absolute must-have. It's easy to use, comes well-packaged, and offers exceptional value compared to pre-made options. Highly recommend!

Good quality gluten flour. I add this to regular flour to make bread.

Ive never used this product before so wasn't sure what to expect but figured since our flour over here isn't super high protein id see if that is why my sourdough weren't rising huge ,. . I gotta say this was the only change I made to my recipe and the dough was so much easier and smoother and extensible. Will be using it from now on.

I only received one bag. The description said four bags, 20oz each.

Seitan came out really good
