Seitan is a food included in most vegan recipes. It is a 100% plant-based preparation based on wheat gluten. It is rich in protein and other essential nutrients, an option that allows us to substitute animal meat because its texture and taste are very similar. We are going to love these two delicious homemade seitan appetizers. They are ideal to be served on any occasion, from a small family gathering to a large celebration with friends. The little ones at home will also like it. They are the best example that you don’t always have to include meat in appetizers and canapés for them to be tasty and of high quality.
Seitan is a low-fat food and is basically pure protein.. It is recommended for people with stomach problems because it is easily digestible. In addition, it has a feeling of satiety that prevents us from overeating.
