Keto friendliness
Adapting Russian cuisine to keto requires significant modification due to its traditional reliance on potatoes, grains, and bread.
Top ingredients
Meats, fish, sour cream, tvorog, kefir, cabbage, cucumbers, dill, and salo are excellent traditional keto ingredients.
Danger zones
Ubiquitous potatoes in soups and stews, hidden sugars in marinades/dressings, high-carb sides like bread and kasha, and all dumplings are major carb traps.
Best for
Best for a highly disciplined keto dieter willing to make specific requests and focus on simple meat/fish dishes with fermented vegetables.
