How to make it keto
Request the Roquefort sauce to be made without any flour, cornstarch, or other thickening agents. Ensure no added sugar. Explicitly ask for no accompanying carb-heavy side dishes like potatoes, rice, or bread. Opt for a simple green salad or steamed keto vegetables instead.
Watch out for
Potential hidden thickeners (flour, starch) in the Roquefort sauce. Some chefs might add a touch of sugar to balance the strong cheese flavor. Always served with high-carb sides by default in a traditional setting.
