What is a seitan steak and how do I cook it?

[KathyMCMLXXII]

Oh, and why did I buy it given I have no idea of the above?

omg -I just googled it

this???

gosh is it in a tin? it doesn't sound very nice.

It's vac packed. Came from the health food shop - they hadn't got any tofu so I thought it might do instead.
I'd probably better fry it on the grounds that that improves most things

Lulumama - yes, I think it's made of gluten like the thing in your link - thanks.
