ケト間八のあら煮付け
Keto Simmered Amberjack Collar/Bones

Amberjack collar/bones, dashi, sugar-free soy sauce, keto-friendly sweetener, ginger, sake (trace carbs), water, green onions (garnish).
How to make it keto
Strictly request no sugar or mirin in the simmering liquid. Ensure no starchy vegetables (such as daikon or burdock root, which are sometimes used in traditional versions) are included. Ask for extra ginger slices.
