Cooking & Baking

I really prefer homemade seitan, but sometimes I fall for a sale (fie on you, Publix!) and stock up on BOGO items for lazy meals. The Daring brand seitan seems to me to be weirdly tough—or maybe you’re just not supposed to do more than heat it up? I think they overmix and the gluten just turns out extra hard to chew.

Nevertheless, tonight was a lazy night and I heated some up in a skillet with spicy BBQ and jalapeño sauce and wrapped it in a WW tortilla. Made for a decent stomach-filler, and had enough flavour to distract from the texture issues.

I do know what my weekend kitchen project will include, though.
