Mighty Meatless Bolognese

Mighty Meatless Bolognese

with Seitan and Tagliatelle Pasta

Meat sauce without the meat may seem like an impossible feat. But by golly, we’ve figured it out! Tuscan-flavored seitan has the texture and heartiness that’s essential to any good Bolognese, along with a few built-in seasonings that give it that Old World taste. Seitan also looks (and tastes) really good when it’s smothered in tomato sauce and clinging to strips of tagliatelle pasta. So get those forks ready: they’ll be twirling up every last bit of this Italian-inspired classic.

Instructions

Prep and Cook Pasta
1

Wash and dry all produce. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Mince or grate garlic. Halve, peel, and thinly slice shallot. Finely chop parsley. Once water is boiling, add linguine pasta to pot and cook until al dente, 9-11 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain.

Cook Shallot
2

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, 3-5 minutes, tossing. Season with salt and pepper

Brown Seitan
3

Add seitan crumbles and Tuscan heat spice (to taste—it’s spicy) to pan, breaking up seitan into pieces with a spatula or wooden spoon. Cook until lightly browned and crisped, 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in garlic and most of the parsley and cook until fragrant, another 1 minute (save a few big pinches of parsley for garnish).

Make Bolognese
4

Stir diced tomatoes, stock concentrate, and 1 cup water into pan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and let simmer until slightly reduced, 5-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: Give the Bolognese a taste. If it seems sharp, try adding up to 1 tsp sugar to mellow it out.

Toss Pasta
5

Add linguine pasta, half the Parmesan, and a splash of pasta cooking water to pan and toss to thoroughly combine. TIP: If Bolognese seems dry, add more pasta cooking water until it’s nice and saucy.

Finish
6

Divide pasta between plates. Garnish with reserved parsley and remaining Parmesan.
