What is Seitan?
Seitan is a traditional high-protein, plant-based meat alternative made from wheat gluten. It has a chewy, meat-like texture and easily absorbs flavors, making it a popular choice in vegan and vegetarian cooking. Learn more about seitan here. If you’ve tried seitan, then you know how savory, satisfying, and versatile it can be. You can find seitan premade in the refrigerator section of most supermarkets these days, so that you can easily chop it up and stir it into an array of recipes, from casseroles and skillet meals to stews and tacos. The “meaty” texture and rich flavors of seitan make it a standout in the plant-powered kitchen. Plus, it’s a nutrition-packed, earth-friendly protein choice you should include in your diet more often. You can even make your own seitan the easy way with a few key ingredients, including Vital Wheat Gluten Flour and a flavorful broth.
I asked some of my favorite food bloggers to share their very favorite seitan recipes with us today, so you can be inspired with a variety of new dinner recipes featuring this plant protein. Try to make seitan yourself, create faux seitan “meat”, or use premade seitan in the recipes below.
