Made from the konjac plant root, konjac rice has almost zero net carbs and very few calories. Because of this, it's a popular rice substitute for those on a ketogenic diet, allowing for rice dishes without high carbs. However, understanding its unique properties and how to prepare it is key to making it a successful part of keto meals.
