Pronounced "say-tan," Seitan is a traditional Japanese food made by rinsing the starch away from wheat and retaining the protein. With an impressively meat-like texture and robust flavor, Seitan is both high in protein and low in fat without the cholesterol associated with meat. Upton's highly versatile Traditional Seitan comes in minimally seasoned larger chunks just waiting for your culinary creativity. It goes great on sandwiches, in salads, served over rice, or in a wrap.
