Oatmeal jelly for the stomach
Description
The drink is quick and easy to prepare. Oatmeal kissel is not made in advance. It is prepared immediately before serving and must be served warm. Oatmeal kissel itself has a neutral taste, so you can add salt or honey to taste. However, the value of the drink lies precisely in its neutrality. It can be served as is.
