Making low carb simple
Instructions
- Choose your cheeses carefully - preferably organic ones without additives.
- Pick cheeses made from different kinds of milk - cow, goat or sheep.
- For a diverse platter, choose different consistencies, aging and origins.
- Make sure that the cheese is at room temperature when serving. So, remove the cheese from the fridge a little ahead of time for optimum deliciousness.
- Add crunchy condiments such as nuts, celery stalks, figs, pears and other veggies that you like.
Tip!
Calculate 2-3 oz. of cheese per person. Here you'll find recipes for our seed crackers, keto garlic and rosemary focaccia and pickled red onions.
