WHY IT'S KETO-FRIENDLY

  • Very low net carbs: ~1.5g per 100g; typical servings contribute <0.5g net
  • Fiber from chilies/spices further blunts carb impact
  • Spices (cumin, coriander, caraway) deliver flavor without added sugars
  • Small amounts transform dishes—easy to stay within macros
  • Oil-based paste pairs naturally with keto fats and proteins
  • Versatile across eggs, meats, roasted veg, and dressings
