Keto Kapustnica
Keto Sauerkraut Soup with Smoked Pork
Yes, with a tweak: confirm no potatoes or prunes. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A hearty and warming traditional Slovak sauerkraut soup, typically made with smoked pork, sausage, and mushrooms. For a keto version, potatoes and prunes are omitted, ensuring a savory, filling, and low-carb meal. Often thickened with a touch of flour, this version should be requested without it.
Key ingredients
Sauerkraut, smoked pork (bacon, pork shoulder, ribs), sausages (klobása), dried mushrooms, onions, garlic, paprika, bay leaves, caraway seeds, sour cream (optional, for serving).
How to make it keto
