Wheat gluten (food) 蛋 (tan, from 蛋白 (tanpaku, "protein")). The meaning of the word "seitan" has undergone a gradual evolution. The initial product, imported from Japan in 1969 was a very salty seasoning, the color of soy sauce, sold in a small glass jar or plastic pouch, to be used as a seasoning for brown rice.
