Save a Turkey, Eat some seitan

In third grade I wrote a story about a Turkey who escapes his thanksgiving fate by working out at Bally Total Fitness. His new slim physique distracted the farmer from picking him first to be slaughtered since he was less desirable thus giving him enough time to run away and hop fences (which he normally couldn’t do as his fatso turkey self). 

Most Turkey’s aren’t as lucky and there really aren’t that many Bally Total Fitnesses around these days. 

You can help. Eat Seitan. Fight the Empire. Be Different. Eat turkey next week for fun.

Rosemary- and Hazelnut-Encrusted Seitan

Created by our chef, this flavorful and beautiful dish is perfect for holiday gatherings. Marinate it in the Special Sauce, and serve it with Red Wine and Shallot Gravy and Green Beans With Fresh Cranberries

• 1 cup hazelnuts, toasted


• 3 Tbsp. fresh rosemary, minced


• 2 cups flour


• 3-5 Tbsp. olive oil


• 1 lb. seitan cut or shredded into large chunks and marinated overnight or


• 1 box chicken-style White Wave Wheat Meat, available at health food stores.


• Salt and pepper, to taste

• Place the hazelnuts and rosemary in a food processor and blend until fine. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the flour, and stir to combine.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip the seitan chunks in the hazelnut mixture and coat completely (if the seitan does not come packaged in liquid, dip each piece in a little bit of water first). Put the seitan pieces in the oil and fry until lightly browned and crispy on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve hot with Red Wine and Shallot Gravy (see recipe). 

Makes 4 to 6 servings

Marinade for Seitan

Serve this easy-to-make marinade with fried, sautéed, or grilled and sliced seitan and your favorite veggies.

• 2 cups extra virgin olive oil


• 1 cup tamari or soy sauce


• 1/2 cup Dijon mustard


• 16 garlic cloves


• 1 Tbsp. ground black pepper

• Mix all ingredients in a blender.

Makes 3 1/2 cups

Red Wine and Shallot Gravy

Savory shallot gravy is perfect with our Rosemary- and Hazelnut-Encrusted Seitan.

• 1 Tbsp. olive oil


• 6 Tbsp. shallots, minced


• 1/2 cup yellow onions, minced


• 1/4 cup celery, diced


• 1/4 cup carrots, diced


• 1/3 cup red wine


• 1 sprig fresh thyme


• 3 peppercorns


• 31/2 cups roasted vegetable stock 


• 1 Tbsp. margarine


• 1 Tbsp. flour

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, onions, celery, and carrots and cook until soft and browned. Stir in the wine, thyme, and peppercorns and cook, stirring frequently, until the wine is absorbed. Stir in the stock and cook for approximately 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced by half.
• Meanwhile, melt the margarine in a small skillet. Add the flour and stir constantly until bubbly and lightly browned. Stir in some liquid to thin out, then stir the mixture into the stock mixture and cook for another 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer and discard the vegetables. Serve over the Rosemary and Hazelnut-Encrusted Seitan.

Makes 4 servings

The Accident by Erica Funkhouser

She heard the nasty scraping of sole and heel
against the clipped turf of the doormat;
then their neighbor rushed in,
just back from the hospital,
where everything was fine, she said.
Fine. Her son had to spend the night
for observation, that was all.
He had been grazed by a delivery van
while crossing the street on his bike.
A few bruises, a superficial wound
above one knee. Incredible luck.
The neighbor was still wearing
her jogging clothes—pale blue
ripstop nylon, the same blue flame
along the instep of her running shoes.
She slid a chair from underneath
the kitchen table and sat down,
her long legs straight in front of her
like a ladder to a different world.
It was when the neighbor answered “yes”
to a question the woman’s husband
had not yet asked
that the woman finally understood.
Her husband had not even mentioned eggs,
but the neighbor knew he was going to cook for her.
How many times had they eaten together,
the woman watching wondered. Enough.
Her husband worked slowly,
strolling back and forth between the stove,
the coffee maker, and the table
where his wife and the still-flushed neighbor
leaned on their elbows discussing
the hazards of dusk.
On the counter, the eggs
developed little caps of moisture.
Her husband put lots of butter
in the pan and popped the toaster manually
before the toast could burn.
At long last he broke the eggs.
She had never seen him
do it like this before, two-handed.
He always liked to show off
by breaking the eggs with one hand.
This evening
his hands were trembling
as he cracked the eggs
on the skillet’s rim, hurrying to slide
the whole brimming mess into the pan
to quiet the sizzling fat.
