Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Serving Tip:
These mini seitan bites are fantastic on their own, but for an extra flavor kick, serve them with a side of Curried Cauliflower Purée. A spicy mustard or a simple vegan mayonnaise also works wonderfully for dipping.
Wine Advice:
For a snack this savory and versatile, you need a wine that can handle a little bit of everything. A dry white wine, such as a crisp Sauvignon Blanc, is a great choice. Its zesty acidity will beautifully complement the savory flavors of the seitan and any add-ins you choose. It’s a pairing that makes a simple snack feel like a proper appetizer!
