Seitan

Store homemade seitan in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It can also be frozen for longer storage.

Seitan can be simmered, baked, pan-fried, or grilled. It absorbs marinades and sauces beautifully.

For a tender texture, avoid overworking the dough when making homemade seitan.

It can be a great base for stews, stir-fries, and sandwiches.

Barbecue sauce

Teriyaki sauce

Mushroom gravy

Spicy marinades

Hearty vegetables like potatoes, carrots, and onions

Making seitan too tough by over-kneading the dough.

Not cooking seitan long enough, resulting in a gummy texture.

Not allowing enough time for seitan to absorb marinades or flavors.
