We are not interested in narrowly defining this style of cuisine, but it is in line with the ketogenic and low carb high protein diets with medium fat. This style of eating also includes healthy portions of organic vegetables and low FODMAP foods. We do not use any seed oils, simple carbohydrates, added sugars, gluten or GMO produce in our food. We do cook with gluten free soy based products such as Tamari and premium fish sauce made without shellfish.
