Bakit
Traditional seitan is wheat gluten simmered in soy sauce, kombu and ginger. Some commercial products and Asian mock meats are simmered in chicken- or beef-flavoured stock, and some recipes use egg to firm the dough.

- Milk, whey, casein, lactose, egg, honey, gelatin, carmine (E120) and shellac (E904) in the list
- "May contain milk" is an allergen cross-contamination note, not an ingredient — most vegans still buy it

Mga tanong ng mga tao
Is Seitan certified vegan?
Certification is separate from the recipe. Many products with no animal ingredients carry no vegan mark because the maker will not rule out shared production lines. Check the pack for a registered vegan trademark, and treat the ingredient list as the primary evidence.
Does the answer change between countries?
Often, yes. The same brand name can use different fats, emulsifiers, colours or whey depending on the plant that made it, so always read the local label rather than an answer written for another market.
