Happy Seitan Day!

Blogger of the Day: Jess at Thank God Bourbon Is Vegan

It's Halloween season and seitan has arrived! Seitan (actually pronounced say-tahn, or as awesome Isa says it, say-tan) is a savory meat sub made with vital wheat gluten. The VWG gives it that dense meaty texture that some people miss when they go vegan...and cons carnivores into thinking it's meat! You can make seitan yourself or buy it premade and flavored. If you're missing meatballs, meatloaf or any other meaty eats, seitan is a devilishly clever switch!  ;)

Animal loving angel Jess shares her seitan secrets and more hearty heavenly feasts.  :)
