Nothing is super 19 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: new with Sitan. I did read a lot of articles 20 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: about whether jackfruit or Sitan is better for a barbecue, 21 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: and it was personal. Everyone kind of had their own response, 22 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: So here we are. 23 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 3: It was deeply personal. 24 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: Well, as we talked about in that Memphis Style barbecue episode, 25 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 1: people have very strong opinions. They do very personal opinions. 26 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: Oh about those kinds of things always, always, and we 27 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: would love to hear those opinions from you listeners. 28 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, about vegetarian proteins the same way 29 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: as anything else. But yeah, I suppose, without further ado, 30 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: we should let former Annie and Lauren take it away. 31 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 3: Hello, and welcome to Savor. 32 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 2: I'm Annie Rises and I'm Lauren Vogelbaum. And today we're 33 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: talking about satan. 34 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 3: Yes, satan, not satan, not satan. No, different thing, very different. 35 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: Probably not vegetarian that second one. 36 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 3: I don't think so, but you never know, you never know. 37 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: No, we're talking about satan, which is flavored wheat gluten, 38 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 1: sometimes called a gluten, wheat gluten, wheat protein, or wheat meat. 39 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: It's in your tofriky slices, yes, yes, but. 40 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: Really though, what is it? Okay? 41 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: Satan is a protein product created using wheat gluten. Gluten 42 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 2: is the primary protein in wheat. It's a stretchy and 43 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,399 Speaker 2: sort of linky, and the texture of satan is well, 44 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 2: it's a lot like meat, maybe more so than other 45 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: meat alternatives. It has a sort of fibrous chew that 46 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 2: reminds me a lot of chicken or at least like 47 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: a chicken nugget actual chicken. And you make satan by 48 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: first coaxing the gluten out of wheat flour and then 49 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 2: by encouraging that gluten to lock up just right to 50 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: give you that nice, chewy texture. To get the gluten out, 51 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: you make a sort of dough of flour and water 52 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: and then soak and knead it with a more water, 53 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: like a lot more water. Gluten is not water soluble, 54 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: so it will stay put in your sort of dough, 55 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: but the starches that make up the rest of wheat 56 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: flour are totally water soluble, so they will eventually wash out. 57 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 2: You're then left with gluten, and okay. Gluten is made 58 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 2: up of two types of protein molecules, glutenins and gleiodins, 59 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 2: plus a smattering of a few other compounds like cysteine, 60 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: which is an amino acid, and all right under normal circumstances. 61 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: Gluten is a sort of gel like suspension of this 62 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 2: stuff and maybe some molecules of water. But when you 63 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: mess with it, both physically mixing or kneading the gluten 64 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: and also chemically changing its pH by adding stuff like 65 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: vinegar or baking soda, those cysteines will make the gluten 66 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: in molecules link up. The gleiodins are smaller and will 67 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 2: get trapped in these like cross linked matrices of gluten 68 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 2: molecules like a Okay, imagine, imagine you have a few 69 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 2: strands of giant Christmas lights. 70 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 3: Oh I do like. 71 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 2: Like like the bulbs are like the size of like 72 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 2: normal lamp bulbs. Okay, And these strands are just super 73 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 2: tangled up. 74 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 3: Oh no, as they do. 75 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: And for some reason you and all your wisdom decided 76 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: to store a bunch of bitty little like pinky sized 77 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 2: globe ornaments in the same box as these strands of 78 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: Christmas lights. And so when you take this mass of 79 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: tangled lights out of the box, all of these little 80 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 2: ornaments come with it, trapped in the little like pockets 81 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 2: made up by the chords. 82 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 3: Did my mom put you up to this? 83 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: It's a lot of work taking down the decorations at 84 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: the end of the year, Mom, No. 85 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 2: No, shame, no shame. Okay, okay, does this imagine that 86 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: you can eat it? 87 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 3: Oh? Does that make it better? Then I don't have 88 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 3: to untangle them? Yeah? 89 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, Well that's satan cool. 90 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 3: Guilt free. You can also make it at home. 91 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 2: It is notoriously difficult to get the texture right, but yes, 92 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 2: you can totally work your own gluten out of flour 93 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: or buy wheat gluten often called vital wheat gluten in 94 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: stores and use it to make your own satan. You 95 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: can also use vital weet gluten to up your homemade 96 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: bread game. 97 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: Ooh, I'm always looking to up my homemade bread game. 98 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: If we're talking about flavor, I actually don't have too 99 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: much experience with satan. Satan yes, the form of horror movies, 100 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: but satan, no, not really. I do remember it having 101 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: a hearty, meaty exture and that it absorbed flavor really well. 102 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: It can mimic some of the flavors and properties of 103 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: meat so well that it makes some vegetarians or vegans 104 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: suspicious that there might actually be meat in whatever vegetarian 105 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: vegan dish they've ordered that has satan in it. Yeah. 106 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: By itself, wheat gluten is pretty bland, but satan is 107 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: usually made with flavor additives to make it taste meaty. 108 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 2: Common recipes recommend savory things like nutritional yeast tomorrow and 109 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 2: worster share sauce. 110 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: And we're talking about nutrition Satan has a good amount 111 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: of protein. One ounce comes in around twenty one grams 112 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: of protein. It's low fat, low carb, but obviously not 113 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: gluten free if celiacs or gluten intolerance is something that 114 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: you deal with. 115 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this package of really high protein with really 116 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: low fat and low carb is something that some people 117 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 2: find very desirable. 118 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 3: And numbers wise. 119 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: In twenty twelve, some research put the meat alternatives industry 120 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: in the US, of which Satan is a part of, 121 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 1: at five hundred and thirty three million dollars. 122 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 3: So it's making some money. Yeah, it's making some money. 123 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: And if we look back at the history, it features 124 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: a cameo from someone I was not expecting that we 125 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: haven't talked about in a while on this show. But 126 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to wait to find out who it 127 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: is until after this quick break forward from our sponsor. 128 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 3: And we're back. Thank you, sponsor, Yes, thank you. 129 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: For centuries Chinese and Japanese vegetarian Buddhist monks have eaten satan. 130 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 2: Or not exactly Satan, but who romanized either Hu or Fu. 131 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: But yeah, who is not exactly what we think of 132 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: when we think of satan today, but is also a 133 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: product made from wheat gluten that has been processed to 134 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: form chewy proteiny products. It's usually a little less fibrous 135 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 2: than satan, more like the texture of seafood than chicken, 136 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 2: or sort of spongier, like a sort of springy cake. 137 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, there isn't too much when it comes to history 138 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: recorded history when it comes to satan. But I do 139 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: know that some people like ignore this whole thing and 140 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: say that this isn't satan when they're talking about. 141 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: The history of satan. Yeah, depends, you know, mysteries of history. Yeah, sure, Yeah. 142 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: It's been a Southeast Asian diet staple since sixth century CE. 143 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: In Japan, for instance, where for centuries up until the 144 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: nineteenth century, eating four legged animals was forbidden. 145 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 2: This resulted from the arrival of Buddhism circa sixth century CE, 146 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 2: compounding existing Shinto beliefs against killing or eating animals. 147 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: Because of that, Japan and also India, which had a 148 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: similar story, the idea of mak meat wasn't really a 149 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: thing for a good while because there wasn't really a 150 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: reference point. 151 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, there were pockets of cultures that ate meat anyway 152 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: in Japan, but it was not widespread like new emperors 153 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 2: had a long standing tradition of as soon as they 154 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 2: rose to power, re upping that edict against eating mammals. 155 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: Right, the same wasn't true in China, not. 156 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: For the common person at any rate.

I love how on the nose that. 184 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 1: Is, we have a restaurant similar to that in Atlanta. 185 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: It was similarly named, but the opening night menu included 186 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: fruit and graham bread. Yes, that gram, but that's not 187 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: the kmemeo what I'm talking about. Although related, George Osawa 188 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: came up with the term satan in nineteen sixty one. 189 00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: He was also the founder of the macrobiotic diet, and indeed, 190 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: satan wasn't that common in cookbooks until the nineteen seventies. 191 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: That word anyway, And like I said earlier, all that 192 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: early history we've been talking about. Some folks dispute it, 193 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: saying that satan got its start with the macrobiotic diet 194 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: in the nineteen sixties. 195 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 2: I think satan is based very heavily on who like 196 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 2: to the point where you can really call it, I 197 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 2: mean that you can count. 198 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 3: The history of Yeah, it was sort of like a progression. Yeah. 199 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's just just an offshoot. 200 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. 201 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: When Mormon settlers were making their way to Utah in 202 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: the nineteenth century, they needed an inexpensive protein source and 203 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: satan was their answer. 204 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 3: Oh and also, you. 205 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: Know who was a huge part of this movement, One 206 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: John Harvey Kellogg. Kellogg That Kellogg as part of his 207 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: whole health sanitarium thing that we've talked about in a 208 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 1: few episodes, he was looking for a successful meat alternative 209 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: the vegetarians in his flock. He and his brother Will Keith, 210 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: through some weird circumstance, came upon the conclusion that dry 211 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: wheat flaked super well, and you add milk boila toasted 212 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: wheat flakes. Now, Kellogg and his brother Will Keith had 213 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: a huge blowout when it came to the profitability of 214 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: the cereal, eventually leading to Will spinning out the Kellogg 215 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: we all know that company and John Harvey Kellogg starting 216 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: the Battle Creek Food Company. This company's product line was 217 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: primarily mock meats. The most popular of witch was known 218 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: as protos. It was a combination of soy peanuts and 219 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: wheat gluten, sort of the. 220 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 3: First commercial approximation of satan. 221 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, some Seventh day aventist fans of Kellogg got the 222 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: idea for mock meats more closely resembling hot dogs and 223 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: hamburgers and adding more seasoning for flavor, including one doctor 224 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: George Harding, a relative of worn Gee Harding. Yeah, we're 225 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: getting all guy. It's a surprising peace in this episode. 226 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: From this came the Worthington Foods Company and their two 227 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: canned imitation meat products in nineteen forty nine. If you're wondering, 228 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: because we were meatless wieners still available these days, be 229 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: looking for a throwback and soyloin steaks. Oh that legitimately 230 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: made me laugh. 231 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 3: That was good. It's a good pun. 232 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: And we talked about these meatless wieners in our hot 233 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 2: Dogs episode. These were maybe the first veggie dogs on 234 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 2: the market. 235 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: Eventually, Worthington's got bought out by Miles Laboratories, and from 236 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: this came a brand you've probably heard of, morning Star Farms. 237 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 3: Yep, that one. 238 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: They were the first that were really able to commercialize 239 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: the mock meats market in the US. 240 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 3: Like the Chick with a K Patty that. 241 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: Was them, morning Star went through several companies before once 242 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: again falling under Kellogg's ownership. Satan's success largely depended on 243 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: the public at large accepting vegetarianism, which for a while 244 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: was a tough sell in the United States, especially for 245 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: Middle America. In the nineteen twenties, one of America's first 246 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: chain restaurants, it was called Child's, attempted to transition to 247 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: a full vegetarian menu at an affordable price at the 248 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: behest of owner and vegetarian William Childs. Folks didn't go 249 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: for it, though, Sales plummeted and Childs was removed from 250 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: his leadership position. Even progressive New York City was iffy 251 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: on the idea of vegetarianism during World War II, entered 252 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: Cranks in nineteen sixty one in all vegetarian restaurant that 253 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: went on to attract famous fans like Linda McCartney and 254 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: Princess Diana. 255 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 2: And I wanted to put in here at the end 256 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 2: that these days, Satan is pretty widely available in supermarkets. 257 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: But if you're looking to expand from Satan into who territory. 258 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 2: The fresh stuff that's mixed with glutenous rice in Japanese 259 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 2: called namafu is hard to find in the West, but 260 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 2: you can probably find a cooked and dried who called 261 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 2: u yaki who or yaqui boo in whatever Asian import 262 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 2: market is in your area. 263 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: I don't have to keep an eye out for that. 264 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: This episode has inspired me to try try some more. 265 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: Say ton, Yeah, me too. 266 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 2: I'm sort of I'm craving it right now.
