Bowl

Pour in the water all at once and quickly mix with a sturdy spoon.

Ingredients you will need

Water

Additional water may be necessary to moisten all of the dry gluten. Don't worry that the ball is rather solid, it is supposed to be.

Ingredients you will need

Water

Pour off any excess water.

If you want your ribs chewy, leave the ball just as it is. If you want it slightly less chewy, remove it from the bowl and knead for 1 to 2 minutes on a clean surface. Return it to the bowl, and coat with smooth peanut butter. Set aside.

Frying Pan

Add onion; cook and stir until golden brown.

Ingredients you will need

Onion

Remove from the heat.

Pour the onion and oil over the ball of gluten. Poke a few times with a chopstick, knife or even a fork, allowing the oil to soak into the ball.

Cooking Oil

Chopsticks

Knife

Let cool.

When the ball is just warm enough to be manageable, use your hands to mix the oil and onions in. There will be a lot of oil that will not mix in and tiny pieces of gluten that will not stay attached. That's okay. The oil mainly helps the gluten absorb the spice. Just mix as much as you can.

Cooking Oil

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Break off good sized handfuls of dough and shape them into strips by pulling and twisting. You want them to be about 4 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Don't try cutting these, or rolling them out, as that will make them behave more like bread and change the texture appreciably.
