Contains wheat gluten and garlic.
The article is entitled "How to make your own seitan," but it doesn't start with washing the starch out of wheat flour. "How to cook your own seitan" would be a better title.
And yeah, washing the starch out of flour is how you extract gluten. The gluten isn't soluble and is left behind. I'm lazy; I buy Bob's Red Mill.
