If gluten is the devil, then I say “Hail Seitan!”

Making diabolically delicious vegan meats at home is easy using using wheat protein. Whether you start from scratch with whole wheat, or get a little boost-up with gluten flour, you can control the texture, flavour and presentation to make a variety of toothsome, flavourful, better-than-Yves meat substitutes.

At this workshop Dep vegan maven Emily Zimmerman will be walking you through the making (and eating) of a roast seitan brisket, served with miso gravy, rice and greens.

You’ll also learn how to make spicy vegan pepperoni, and seitan-okara “chicken breasts” that participants can take home. There’ll be a recipe package with these and other recipes and variations, as well as an excellent metal playlist to accompany us while we rock out in the kitchen.
