This recipe comes from https://www.theedgyveg.com/ and you should give these delicious vegan wings a try– I promise they will taste JUST like the meat version. The seitan chicken has taken me roughly 2 years to perfect. It is moist, and perfectly spiced. For the “bones” you can use either sugar cane or popsicle sticks; or you can simply have “boneless” wings!
