Grybų sriuba (kreminė)
Creamy Mushroom Soup
Yes, with a tweak: ask for 'be miltų' (without flour) and 'be bulvių' (without potatoes). About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Lithuanian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A rich and comforting creamy soup made with a variety of wild or cultivated mushrooms, often blended to a smooth consistency. A hearty and aromatic choice, especially in autumn.
Key ingredients
Mushrooms (e.g., porcini, button), heavy cream, butter, onion, garlic, vegetable broth, salt, pepper, fresh herbs.
How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Ask for 'be miltų' (without flour) and 'be bulvių' (without potatoes). Ensure it's thickened only with cream, not starch. Confirm broth is sugar-free.
Say this to the waiter (Lithuanian)
Grybų sriubos prašau be miltų ir be bulvių. Prašau patvirtinti, kad tirštinta tik grietinėle, o sultinys be cukraus.
I'd like the Grybų sriuba without flour or potatoes. Please confirm it's thickened only with cream, and the broth is sugar-free.
Watch out for
Most restaurant cream soups are thickened with flour (roux) or contain potatoes. Hidden sugars in pre-made broths. Onions add some carbs. Often served with croutons (omit).
