Quick Scallion Seitan Saute over Soba Noodles

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

1 package of soba noodles (whatever flavor you prefer) - about 8 oz.
1 bunch of scallions
5-6 fresh large button mushrooms (use more if they're small)
10 cloves of garlic, or more if you prefer.
1 cup seitan, chopped
1 tablespoon miso (or whatever size dollop you usually use)
1/4-1/2 cup water to saute

Directions:

Cut up scallions into 1/2 inch pieces, using as much of the crispy tops as you can. Mince the garlic, or press (if your press actually works, mine never has). Slice the mushrooms into thinish slices. Cut up the seitan. In a medium fry pan, cook all the ingredients together in the water, adding more as you need it. Cook the soba according to directions at the same time (you won't need very much water for it to cook... just enough to cover). When its cooked to your liking, turn off heat, and serve over drained (and rinsed) soba noodles. Try and leave the seitan/scallion mixture saucy. The more gooey it is, the more sauce to mix in with the soba noodles. It took me 1/2 hour to get it out of the fridge and into my stomach, if not less.

This recipe is FABULOUS, thanx Tara

Thanks for this great recipe....had it with pasta instead of the Soba Noodles.

Soba noodles are originally from Japan, and are made from buckwheat, I believe. Very tasty and wholesome.A staple of macrobiotic diets. Seitan is also known as wheatmeat. Made from wheat gluten. It is also from Asia. Most meatlike of meat substitutes, beefy. When sliced very thinly, it can be fried with onions and green peppers to make a Philly Steak Sandwich. Both of these are worth discovering and are available at Health food stores and Oriental Markets.

Seitan, when made from the recipe given on the Vegweb home page, is great when fried in very light olive oil.

Seitan is great great with BBQ sauce (grilled or broiled)!
