Krvavice
Blood Sausage
Yes, keto as served. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Bosnian/Herzegovinian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A traditional savory blood sausage, typically made from pork blood, pork fat, and various spices. While some versions include minimal grains, it's often naturally low-carb and pan-fried until crispy.
Key ingredients
Pork blood, pork fat, pork rind, onion, salt, pepper, marjoram, sometimes minimal rice or groats (verify with restaurant).
Optional tweaks
Confirm with the restaurant that the blood sausage contains minimal to no rice, groats, or flour fillers. Request pan-fried in ample fat and served without carb-heavy accompaniments.
