re seitan and tempeh

[Guest guest]

As I am fairly new to this and never have used seitan or tempeh, can

you please tell me how to cook those? I have tempeh here at home but

haven't dared to use it yet lol

Hi Cheyenne. Seiten is used in stews, casseroles, etc. I also stir fry it

quickly on high heat. Makes good kabobs. Yum!

 

I've mainly fried tempe, like bacon, but I'm sure it could be prepared various

ways.

 

FYI, www.pcrm.org is a good resource for vegan recipes.

Hi

I love tempeh. It should be cooked due to something I do not remeber

now, but I will try to look it up later.

I cut it up in 1/2 lenghtwise and then into strips for stir fry or you

can cut it in to 4 squares and use is in snadwiches.

Heat up a pan and then pour some oil and fry it on both sides about 2

minutes and then glaze it with some soy sause and water is the

easiest. You can add a bit mirin. Cook it for about 5 minutes I think

and then toss with veggies or eat. I am sure there are more options

but this works the best for me. I think there is some recipe that

after cooking it you can crumble it and cool and mix with vegan mayo

and some chicken like salad stuff and make great chicken-less sandwich

filing.

 

As for the Seitan. Cut it in strips and use as you would use meat in

any recipe. Stroganoff, stir fries, curries and such.

 

Hope this help
