Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute - 32 oz

The roast inside is built on vital wheat gluten and filtered water, which gives it a firm, sliceable texture, and it also includes expeller pressed safflower oil. The pastry is simple: unbleached wheat flour, palm fruit oil, filtered water, salt and citric acid. It comes frozen, so keep it in the freezer until you're ready to cook it. The ingredient list includes wheat, roasted hazelnuts, sesame oil and barley malt extract.

We introduced this roast as a new holiday tradition wrapped in a vegan puff pastry. At Field Roast, we began as a chef-led kitchen in Seattle over twenty years ago, combining European charcuterie methods with Asian mien ching traditions to craft plant-based food from grains, vegetables, herbs and spices. We're also a carbon neutral company: we've reduced our greenhouse gas emissions and neutralize the unavoidable ones that remain, because our dedication to keep our planet happy is just as bold as our flavors.

Common Questions

What's a good vegan main dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner?
Our Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute was made for that table: a 2 lb plant-based roast wrapped in flaky puff pastry, which we introduced as a new holiday tradition. A holiday main works best when it can be brought out whole, carved and shared like a traditional roast, and a pastry-wrapped roast slices into portions at the table. Ours is vegan right through to the pastry, so vegans and everyone else can eat the same main. We craft it with rich hazelnuts, cranberries, sweet candied ginger and fragrant rosemary. It also suits personal celebrations or a Sunday dinner.

What is a plant-based alternative to a traditional meat roast?
Wheat-gluten roasts are one of the most common plant-based stand-ins for a traditional roast, and our Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute is one of them. Vital wheat gluten, the concentrated protein of wheat, cooks into a dense, sliceable texture, which is why it is the base of seitan and many holiday roasts. We start with vital wheat gluten and filtered water, add fruit, nuts and herbs, then wrap the whole roast in puff pastry. At Field Roast, we began in Seattle over twenty years ago, combining European charcuterie methods with the Asian mien ching tradition.

Is the Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute vegan and non-GMO?
Yes, we declare our Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute both vegan and non-GMO. There are no dairy or eggs anywhere in it, and that includes the puff pastry. The pastry is made from unbleached wheat flour, organic expeller pressed palm fruit oil, filtered water, salt and citric acid. Classic puff pastry relies on butter, so the pastry is usually the part of a wrapped roast that rules it out for vegans.

Does the Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute contain nuts or gluten?
Yes, our Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute contains both. Wheat appears in four forms: vital wheat gluten, wheat protein isolate and whole wheat pastry flour in the roast, plus unbleached wheat flour in the pastry. The tree nuts are roasted hazelnuts, and the roast also contains sesame oil. Barley malt extract is on the ingredient list as well, and barley is another grain that contains gluten.

What does the Hazelnut Cranberry Roast taste like?
Our Hazelnut Cranberry Roast is savory with a sweet edge, built around rich hazelnuts, candied ginger and rosemary for a bold flavor profile. Inside the roast you'll also find cranberries, unsulfured dried apples, garlic, onion and rubbed sage, the herbs and fruit that tie it to traditional holiday stuffing flavors. It is fully seasoned before being wrapped in flaky puff pastry.

How big is the Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute and how should I store it?
Each Hazelnut Cranberry Roast En Croute weighs 32 oz (2 lbs) and needs to be kept frozen. It is sold as a frozen plant-based roast, with the hazelnut cranberry roast already sealed inside its puff pastry wrapping.
