Lohikeitto
Salmon Soup
Yes, with a tweak: ask for NO potatoes and NO carrots. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Finnish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A creamy, rich salmon soup, traditionally made with salmon, diced celeriac, leeks, and dill in a buttery, creamy broth. A comforting and hearty Finnish staple.
Key ingredients
Salmon fillets, heavy cream, butter, fish broth, leeks, dill, salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Ask for NO potatoes and NO carrots. Request extra salmon and cream if possible. Confirm no flour or starch is used as a thickener. Be mindful of leek quantity.
Say this to the waiter (Finnish)
Lohikeitto ilman perunaa ja porkkanaa. Saisiko ekstra lohta ja kermaa? Onko sakeutukseen käytetty jauhoja tai tärkkelystä?
Lohikeitto without potatoes or carrots. Extra salmon and cream, please. Please confirm no flour or starch is used for thickening.
Watch out for
Potatoes, carrots, leeks (in larger quantities), potential flour/starch thickeners in the broth, hidden sugars in pre-made broths.
