Jann seitan

YoU Know if you dice it and marinade it in a little teriyaki sauce mixed with

soy sauce and add to a stir fry I believe you will enjoy it.  I was not used to

it and the first time I tried it I didn't care for the texture or flavor,

something seemed off to me.

Thanks for the suggestions, maybe I'll get brave and give it another

try sometime! I have another package I stuck in the freezer..... .

the Vegetable Steaks by Worthington. It is almost a metallic taste.

I think it may be some flavoring in the broth that it is cooked in.

It may be this way with the refrigerated product you bought. It may

have nothing to do with it. You might try rinsing it and see if

that removes any flavor doesn't appeal to you.

taste anything like this, nor does any of their other products. I

don't even use egg to bread them in Italian bread crumbs, but instead

use the wet products from the can(they all come in a thin broth in

their can) and dip it into some Italian bread crumbs that I've mixed

with garlic salt and Ms.Dash. Then fry them up. Or if using the

choplets in a stir fry, just dry it off with paper towels and dice

up. Then I brown it in a little oil and sprinkle with Lawry's

Seasoned Salt or McKays Beef style seasoning(all vegetarian). Take

it out of the pan and stir fry your veggies(green pepper, broccoli,

carrots, onions, celery, mushrooms, yellow or zucchini squash, etc)

and minced garlic and ground ginger.

Thanks for the tip Donna, that sounds appealing (I do lots of stir fry

type meals). I'm glad to hear again that someone else found

it " different " at first. I really want to give it a fair try since so

many people rave about it.

Jann try the seitan again.

The very first time I opened tempeh I ran away from it. It looked moldy and

spoiled. I was terrified of it. There was nothing written about it in my

little funky cookbook. I had the courage to try it again a few years later when

the store clerk expalined it does normally have a strange appearance. Ast year

I submoitted my Linguini and Not Clam suce recipe top Turtle Mountain and won a

Nano ipod.

There used to be a wonderful natural foods store the next town over

(gone now, I miss their prepared foods!). They had a lunch special

where you could chose 3 items as a sampler. EVERYTHING was yummy and

that's where I first tried tempeh (I, of course, had to ask what it

was!). I think that made it easier and I've loved it ever since.

I'm going to try your linguini and not clam sauce soon! (I don't know

if my family will like it, but I'm going to make it for me anyway!).

Congrats on your win!
