Curry Braised Gluten Seitan Tidbits
$25.89

Apologies to those with gluten intolerance and allergies, but if you're cool with it, boy oh boy are you in for a treat. Seitan, or wheat meat, is made from wheat gluten by washing wheat flour dough with water until all the starch granules have been removed, leaving the sticky insoluble gluten as an elastic mass. It is, in my opinion, the closest imitation to meat. 

It comes in all kinds of forms, such as grounded, steak, slices, and chunks, giving you unlimited possibilities with this ingredient. They can be used for skewers, as ham, turkey, or bacon, and can be incorporated into stir-fries. 

Seitan's chewy and slightly bouncy texture is unparalleled by any other plant-based alternatives I've tried and I would definitely recommend it to a hardcore carnivore to start their plant-based journey easily.
