Seitan is a protein made from vital wheat gluten, a high gluten flour that creates a similar texture to meat. It has a savoury flavour and meaty texture that’s similar to chicken.
We’ve teamed up with the Temple of Seitan, and blended their seitan with our tofu to create a CHICKENY taste and texture that’s waiting to be STRIPPED and STUFFED in a taco, or COVERED in breadcrumbs and FRIED ‘chicken style’.
All hail Seitan!
Seitan (also called Vital Wheat Gluten) is a great plant-based protein alternative made from wheat gluten – that has a chickeny taste and texture. And you’ve probably had it already and not even realised. Seitan is in loads of different vegetarian and vegan products that you already know and love.
Short answer: however you like! A maverick like you makes their own rules. But you could try slicing it in a sandwich as a veggie ‘ham’, tearing it into strips for a taco or covering it in breadcrumbs and frying it ‘chicken style’.
It’s not rocket science. Seitan is made by mixing flour and water and kneading it into a sticky dough. It can get pretty messy! The dough is then washed to remove the starch, leaving only the gluten protein. And to make our Tofoo Seitan, we simply mix in our famous tofu to boost the protein content and give it a softer texture.
