> I could switch to vegan food only after I have discovered that I can make a home-made bread that is highly enriched in protein by removing about 75% of the starch during a 6 to 7 minute washing of the dough. With a longer washing time it is possible to separate completely the gluten from the starch, but I am not willing to spend more time every morning with breakfast preparation, and this is enough to provide on adequate protein to calories ratio.

This is called seitan and has been a meat replacement for at least a thousand years. You can buy it in the store. Hell, you can even buy wheat gluten itself right from the store and make your own without all the washing.
