Carnivore Fish Roe Mousse on Meat Disc | Low-Carb, So Simple
Well, hello, fellow food adventurers! If you’ve ever wondered how to combine your love for all things carnivorous with the elegance of Finnish cuisine, you’re in for a treat. In this post, we’re diving into the deliciously decadent world of Carnivore Fish Roe Mousse—a dish that’s as Finnish as sauna and sisu, but with an animal-based twist. 

In Finland, we take our festive foods very seriously. Whether it’s the cozy, candle-lit gatherings of Christmas or the patriotic fervor of Independence Day, our tables are adorned with delicacies that make your taste buds do a happy dance. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t want their taste buds to dance like nobody’s watching? 

Now, traditionally, fish roe mousse is a creamy, dreamy delight enjoyed by many Finns during these special occasions. But because I’m all about that carnivore life, I’ve transformed this classic recipe into a 100% plant-free treat. Imagine the velvety smoothness of full-fat cream cheese and sour cream, punctuated by the briny burst of roe, all seasoned to perfection with unrefined sea salt. It’s like a Nordic symphony in your mouth!

And for those of you who want to keep things a bit more traditional, stay tuned for the Tips for Variations section, where I’ll share tweaks to turn your carnivore roe mousse into a more classic, keto-friendly Finnish delicacy. Because whether you’re a carnivore or a traditionalist, there’s always room for some Finnish flair on your holiday table!

Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise – Herbed Almond and Parmesan Crusted Fish

Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise – Herbed Almond and Parmesan Crusted Fish | Low-Carb, So Simple
When I was visiting my German boyfriend (now my husband!) when he still lived in Germany over 10 years ago, I often bought him a frozen ready meal called Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise. It was so convenient; I’d just pop it in the oven and he’d gulp it down with gusto, because Schlemmerfilet Bordelaise is one of those classic German comfort foods. (Basically, it’s just Alaskan pollock crusted with a crunchy, buttery herbed crust.) And it really overdelivered: all you had to do was grab the package from the supermarket’s freezer, throw it into the oven at home, and a hearty, heavenly-tasting meal would be ready in no time.

But the commercial version is full of harmful ingredients, like wheat flour, glucose, rapeseed oil, rice starch, dehydrated glucose syrup, and sugar. They’re definitely not suitable ingredients for a keto lifestyle—or for any other type of healthy lifestyle, for that matter!

Ten years ago I was vegetarian, but nowadays I eat fish and I started missing this tasty and convenient comfort food, so I developed my own clean, keto-friendly version. Not only is it much healthier than the store-bought version, it tastes even better!
