About Fried Gluten
A deep-fried wheat gluten product, rich in protein but high in fat and calories.
Health Benefits of Fried Gluten
High protein but also high fat
100g of you-mian-jin has 26.5g protein, 25g fat and 490 kcal - a high-protein, high-energy fried product. Its protein rivals lean pork, but fat (about a quarter oil) is also high, so watch portion size.
Pair with vegetables
A staple of Chinese vegetarian dishes (e.g. stuffed gluten, stewed gluten pots, braised gluten). Its porous structure absorbs sauce well, pairing nicely with mushrooms and vegetables.
Moderation tips
High-energy: stick to 30-50g per serving (about 150-250 kcal) with plenty of vegetables. Rinse briefly in hot water to remove some oil before cooking.
