Kitchen Equipment

Tools that make low-carb cooking easier, faster, or more enjoyable.

Essential for crispy bacon, chicken thighs, halloumi, and vegetables without excess oil. Cuts cooking time significantly.

Perfect sear on steak, chops, and salmon. Holds heat evenly and lasts a lifetime.

Accurate weighing is important for tracking macros. Much more reliable than cups or tablespoons.

Turns courgettes into courgetti — a convincing pasta substitute that cooks in under 2 minutes.

🧂

Low-carb ingredients worth keeping stocked at all times.

The go-to low-carb flour substitute for baking, coating, and thickening. Buy in bulk — it works out far cheaper.

A soy sauce alternative with far less sugar. Essential for stir-fries and marinades without the carb spike.

The everyday cooking fat for most recipes. Good quality makes a noticeable difference in flavour.

Zero-calorie natural sweeteners for baking and hot drinks. Erythritol behaves most like sugar when baking.

💊

I'm not a doctor and this isn't medical advice — but these are supplements I've personally found useful when eating low carb.

When you reduce carbs, your kidneys excrete more sodium, potassium, and magnesium. An electrolyte supplement helps prevent the "keto flu".

Magnesium levels often drop on low carb. This form is well-absorbed and gentler on the stomach than magnesium oxide.
