A few years ago Fratelli ai Fornelli has attended\u00a0a very interesting course on how to prepare seitan at home and today, in honour of the worldwide week of vegetarians, we’re proposing one of the best known dishes of vegan-vegetarian cuisine: the seitan roast.<\/p>\n

\"seitan\"<\/a>Seitan was born in ancient times in China with the name of Mian jin<\/em> and spread later in the surrounding areas. In particular, it became a good substitute of\u00a0meat for Mahayana Buddhists, who were obliged to follow a vegetarian diet.<\/p>\n

Some say that the seitan was born just as imitation meat for the ancient Chinese emperors who respected one week per year of vegetarianism.<\/p>\n

The term seitan, however, derives from the Japanese –sei (<\/em>made of) and –tan<\/em> (proteins). This dish, in fact, although it does not contain any ingredients of animal origin, it has a high protein content (about 18%) and a low caloric value (120 calories per 100 g).<\/p>\n

We recommend the use of Manitoba flour, because it contains a higher gluten value and, therefore, at the end of the preparation you should get more product \ud83d\ude42 .<\/p>\n

Well, just try it! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
