Vital wheat gluten is a natural high protein, free flowing, cream coloured powder extracted from premium quality wheat flour. Gluten is the protein found in wheat and other grains that give dough its characteristic elasticity when kneaded, as it helps hold the gas bubbles formed by the leavening agent.

Uses:Add 1-2 tablespoon of vital wheat gluten per cup of flour to whole grain breads to improve texture. Vital wheat gluten can also be used to make seitan, a vegetarian meat substitute.
