WHY IT'S NOT KETO-FRIENDLY
- The uncooked reference provides 65.3g total carbohydrate and 6.7g fiber per 100 g.
- A cup here means uncooked grain using the documented source weight.
- Added cooking water changes the finished weight; it does not remove the grain carbohydrate.
PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
MEASURE THE DRY GRAIN
Record the uncooked grain weight and any milk, oil or other ingredients before preparation.
CALCULATE COOKED PORTIONS
Weigh the finished edible batch and divide the ingredient totals by the actual servings. Do not apply this dry panel directly to a cooked bowl.
