오리탕
Duck Soup
Yes, keto as served. About 5g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A hearty and savory soup made with a whole duck, often simmered for a long time with various aromatic herbs, roots, and vegetables to create a rich, flavorful broth. It's typically served as a substantial main course.
Key ingredients
Whole duck, garlic, ginger, green onions, black pepper, water, optional medicinal herbs (e.g., jujube, ginseng, chestnuts – request omission of higher-carb items).
Optional tweaks
Ensure no added starch or sugar. Confirm no high-carb additions like potatoes, sweet potatoes, or noodles/rice are included. Ask for a clear broth version if a spicy (gochujang-based) one is offered, as spicy versions are more likely to contain sugar.
Say this to the waiter (Korean)

For the 오리탕, please ensure no added starch or sugar. No potatoes, sweet potatoes, noodles, or rice. A clear broth, please, not spicy.
Watch out for
