Stegt Blodpølse med Tyttebær (uden tilsat sukker)
Fried Blood Sausage with Lingonberries (No Added Sugar)
Yes, with a tweak: request lingonberries with no added sugar or syrup. About 15g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Danish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Pan-fried slices of traditional Danish blood sausage, a unique and rich savory dish. Served with a keto-friendly accompaniment of lingonberries, prepared without any added sugar or syrup.
Key ingredients
Blood sausage (pork blood, pork fat, rye flour, spices), butter/lard (for frying), fresh or unsweetened frozen lingonberries (tyttebær), sugar-free sweetener (optional, for berries).
How to make it keto
Crucially, request lingonberries with no added sugar or syrup. Be aware that traditional blood sausage itself contains rye flour as a binder, which contributes to its carb count. Account for this in your daily macros.
Say this to the waiter (Danish)
Jeg vil gerne have tyttebær uden tilsat sukker eller sirup, tak.
I'd like the lingonberries with no added sugar or syrup, please.
Watch out for
Traditional blood sausage inherently contains rye flour (a forbidden carb), making this a borderline choice. Lingonberries are typically served with large amounts of sugar/syrup; must be sugar-free.
