These are excellent and so easy to alter to taste. I admit, I have missed wings now that I am a vegetarian from time to time. Once I realized that all I was missing was the hot and spicy sauce, these Seitan wings were a welcome and delicious alternative. You can easily make a teriake version, or a sweet buffalo version. The recipe as listed is absolutely excellent, REALLY spicy, and great with ranch or blue cheese for dipping! Thank you!
