Dan Dan Noodles with Seitan, Shiitake Mushrooms & Napa Cabbage

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

Sichuan peppercorns add a touch of floral heat to this mushroom-and-cabbage-loaded riff on dan dan noodles. Look for protein-rich vegetarian seitan--processed wheat gluten with a meaty texture-- near refrigerated tofu in large supermarkets or natural-foods stores.
