Aukstā zupa (keto versija)
Keto Cold Summer Soup (without potatoes/beets)
Yes, with a tweak: request that potatoes and beets are completely omitted. About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Latvian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A refreshing traditional cold soup, perfect for summer. This keto version focuses on a creamy base (sour cream or reduced-carb kefir), fresh cucumbers, radishes, hard-boiled eggs, and plenty of dill, omitting potatoes and beets.
Key ingredients
Sour cream or reduced-carb kefir/buttermilk, fresh cucumbers, radishes, hard-boiled eggs, fresh dill, green onions, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request that potatoes and beets are completely omitted. If kefir/buttermilk is used, be aware of its natural lactose content; a sour cream and water blend is a lower-carb alternative. Confirm no added sugar.
