Quick and Easy Ideas for Preparing Seitan Dishes

Posted on March 14, 2024 by The VRG Blog Editor

In the most recent Vegan Journal, Chef Nancy Berkoff shares suggestions on how to prepare quick and easy seitan dishes.

Quick Seitan Serving Suggestions

  • Chop or grind seitan, sauté with onions and garlic, and add to tomato sauce for spaghetti sauce; or add to cooked beans with barbecue sauce for chili beans; or add to vegetable or tomato soup for extra flavor and texture; use as a pizza topping or a calzone filling; or add to a creamy mushroom sauce to create a stroganoff.
  • Cut seitan into small cubes and sauté with black or white pepper, a small amount of vegetable oil or spray, and chopped bell peppers or chilies of your choice. Add to a package of homemade curry sauce to create a green, yellow, or red curry; add to heated leftover mashed potatoes with sautéed onions and green cabbage to create an Irish-inspired colcannon or a shepherd’s pie; or use as a focaccia topping.
