How to make it keto
Explicitly order 'no rice' (밥 없이). Ensure no added sugar in the broth (though traditionally minimal/none). Ask for simple salt/pepper seasoning.
Say this to the waiter (Korean)
밥 없이 주세요. 설탕 안 넣고 소금, 후추로만 간 해주실 수 있을까요?
No rice, please. Could I have the broth without added sugar, seasoned only with salt and pepper?
Watch out for
Traditionally served with rice. Potential hidden sugar in some restaurant broth preparations, but usually minimal. High sodium from seasoning.
