Oat flakes

The component has a unique pleasant consistency that goes well with the soup itself. However, you should not take flakes that do not require cooking. This option will not work.

If you choose high-quality oatmeal, the rassolnik will be very tasty. The advantage of this option is that the soup is easy and quick to prepare.
