Any good seitan recipes? [View all]
Not vegan or vegetarian but I try to replace my meat products with other things as often as possible--don't even eat meat that often, mostly veg & starches & meat replacements.
Found that seitan is really popular here in philadelphia, especially for cheese-steaks. A bar we go to has a seitan cheese-steak that I like better than the meat cheesesteak. Even my carnivorous S-I-L, who never met a dead animal she didn't find delightful, liked the seitan so much she got an order of the seitan meatloaf rather than a meat-based product.
Have looked online at recipes, and they all get a healthy mix of totally awesome 4-star and omg this is awful 1 star.
Knowing that this is a time-consuming process to make, and wheat gluten (or TVP, can't remember which I saw that it required) is pricy (where I've seen it, and i'm not very close to a whole-foods type place), I'd like to get some of y'all's opinions on the best recipe to use, and any tips you may have for making it and using it.
Thanks!
