FODMAP Notes

Aniseeds are low FODMAP and provide a unique licorice-like flavor. Fresh ginger is safe and adds warmth. Citrus juices are FODMAP-free. Palm sugar is low FODMAP - use in moderation.

Tips

  • 💡 Marinate overnight for deeper flavor
  • 💡 Use a meat thermometer - internal temp should reach 165°F
  • 💡 Thread onto skewers for easier handling
