Guide to Seitan

Nora Cooks • Jul 02, 2021
Seitan is a plant-based meat alternative made from wheat gluten, with a meaty and chewy texture. The key to enjoying seitan is using flavorful recipes and cooking it correctly. It is high in protein and can be used in various dishes like vegan steak, turkey roast, fried chicken, and more. Seitan can be made at home or bought in stores, and it can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days. Making seitan involves mixing dry and wet ingredients, kneading the dough, then cooking it through steaming or boiling before sautéing, frying, or baking.
