About this category
Sauces and seasonings are where a lot of sugar hides. Bottled teriyaki, sweet chili or peanut sauces often list sugar near the top. The recipes in this category rely on bold condiments that fit keto when you pick them carefully or make them yourself: sambal, sriracha, harissa, fresh ginger, toasted sesame, fish sauce and chili bean paste.
Many of the dishes have Asian roots. Mapo tofu, Thai basil beef and dan dan noodles with konjac get their depth from fermented pastes and chili, while chicken satay skewers come with a peanut sauce built without added sugar. Shakshuka with harissa shows the same idea in a North African style, with the spice paste doing the heavy lifting.
When buying condiments, compare labels; brands differ a lot in sugar content. Soy sauce, tamari, fish sauce and most chili pastes can be low in carbs, but check each one. A small spoon of a strong paste usually goes a long way, so these recipes keep amounts modest. Opened jars of pastes and sauces generally keep for weeks in the fridge, which makes it easy to cook several of these dishes in a row.
