Directions
If you are using the shiite mushrooms, place them in a bowl and cover them with hot water.
Soak until soft (about 30 minutes).
Then place the soaked mushrooms in a pot with 2 cups of water (use the soaking liquid) and 3 tablespoons tamari.
Simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, and set aside.
Sauté the seitan, mushrooms, onions, and red bell peppers in the oil along with the garlic and basil.
When the vegetables are tender (half cooked), add the green bell peppers, sherry, and 1.75 cups water.
Mix the miso and ¼ cup water, along with the tomato paste and the tablespoon of tamari, if you wish.
Add to the sautéed vegetables.
Add the dissolved arrowroot and continue to simmer, while sirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened.
Serve the seitan pepper steak with noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
