Seitan (say-tan) is a unique plant-based protein source. It’s a vegetarian meat substitute made entirely from wheat gluten. When mixed with water and kneaded, the gluten becomes elastic and firm and closely resembles the texture of chicken. Seitan has very little flavor on its own but can be seasoned in a variety of ways to make it a fun, plant-based protein to incorporate into your diet.
