Curiosity

Seitan is derived from gluten, which is the protein part of wheat flour: it is a suitable food for those who have intolerances or allergies to animal products.

Seitan contains many vitamins, minerals, and vegetable proteins; it has a high presence of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, which help reduce cholesterol levels in the blood.
The absence of cholesterol and the low sodium content make seitan suitable for low-calorie diets.
