Seitan is one of the plant-based alternatives to meat that is popular not only among vegetarians and vegans, but all people. It is made by repeatedly rinsing wheat flour, causing the starch to be washed away. The remaining mass is then further seasoned and processed to create the final seitan product. Its taste is affected by the added spices and can be prepared in numerous ways. Therefore, it’s up to you whether you bake, steam, or fry it. No matter what you do with it, you will always end up creating delicious main courses.
Seitan is an exceptional plant-based protein source that can be used in many ways in savoury recipes. A classic way is to add it as a steak to a side dish like potatoes, rice, couscous, or pasta. We did it similarly in a recipe for fajitas, where, in addition to seitan and couscous, we added a variety of vegetables. Marinated seitan can also be placed in tortillas or taco shells, toasts, and other bakery goods, creating a great snack or box lunch. Similarly, seitan works great in various sauces and vegetable mixes, in which it will stand out.
It has also become popular among fast food enthusiasts who like to enjoy a healthier alternative. This is because seitan can be used to prepare vegan burgers, where, when properly seasoned, it can perfectly replace beef. Just add one of our sauces, and you have an amazing lunch ready to be served.
