Gravad Laks
Cured Salmon
Yes, with a tweak: request no rye bread. About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Thinly sliced salmon cured with a mixture of salt, sugar, and dill, a classic Nordic delicacy.
Key ingredients
Salmon, salt, dill. (A small amount of sugar is used in the curing process).
How to make it keto
Request no rye bread. Ask for the traditional dill-mustard sauce on the side or omitted, as it almost always contains significant sugar.
Say this to the waiter (Danish)
Jeg vil gerne have Gravad Laks uden rugbrød. Dild-sennepssaucen skal serveres ved siden af, eller udelades venligst.
I'd like the Gravad Laks without rye bread. Please serve the dill-mustard sauce on the side, or omit it completely.
Watch out for
The curing process uses sugar; while most is not absorbed, some will remain. The accompanying dill-mustard sauce is a major carb risk due to its sugar content. Traditionally served with rye bread.
