Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/3 cup allulose or preferred keto sweetener
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp glucomannan powder mixed with 2 tbsp water

Instructions

  • Whisk together rice vinegar, allulose, tomato paste, soy sauce, and water in a small saucepan.
  • Bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking to dissolve the tomato paste evenly, 3-4 minutes.
  • Stir in the glucomannan slurry and simmer 1-2 minutes until glossy and thickened.
  • Cool before transferring to a jar. Keeps refrigerated for up to two weeks.

Notes

Makes about 1 1/4 cups. This sauce thickens further as it cools, so pull it off the heat slightly looser than you want the final texture.
