Feedback on use

A doctor friend recommended that I try Izotov’s jelly. I was just recovering from hospital treatment. In acute pancreatitis, you don’t know how to satisfy your hunger, because pain appears after any meal. This is quite painful, and I was ready to try any option just to ease the suffering. What I got didn’t seem very tasty to me, but I’m used to diets, so I decided to “sit” on it for a few days. And it really made me feel better!

Tatyana, 61 years old

My grandmother once cooked oatmeal jelly for me. The benefits from it, as she said, are great, and it is very easy to prepare. I remembered this recipe when I realized that it was time to lose excess weight. Losing weight is a long process. I ate it for dinner or breakfast for a month. It’s easy and quick to cook, so I often did it before work. I lost 4 kg in a month. Before that, I tried diets on other products - most often, no results.

Taisiya, 38 years old

Oatmeal jelly is very tasteless. Although they say that it is good for the stomach, good for pancreatitis, and good for weight loss, I still couldn’t eat it.

Vera, 32 years old

I learned to cook Izotov’s jelly after I learned that I had a stomach ulcer. I read excellent reviews about this product on the Internet and believed in its miraculous power. It is important that there are no contraindications for gastrointestinal diseases, and there are plenty of different oat flakes - easy to buy. I expected a therapeutic effect. I don’t know whether the drink worked or the drugs prescribed by the doctor, but the pain began to visit me less often. I continue to eat jelly in the evenings.

Pavel, 47 years old
The benefits of eating oatmeal jelly are obvious. This product is perfect for children too. With its help, you can diversify the diet for babies and improve the functioning of the stomach and intestines in case of dysbacteriosis. Since there are no contraindications, oatmeal can be prepared for bedridden patients. In a word, this dish is universal. As they say: simple and tasteful!

Useful tips

1. To make the jelly tasty for children, add cocoa, condensed milk, honey, and chocolate. If it turns out too thick, you can experiment with fruits, vegetables, berries, and nuts. It can also be dried fruits and candied fruits.
2. If you decide to use a water seal but don't have one, we'll tell you how to make one yourself. To do this, you will need a wine cork, for example, or a cap from a regular bottle. You need to make a hole in the center through which to thread a thin hose. Its end should under no circumstances touch the liquid, but should be inside. The second end must be placed in a jar of water. Gas from the can will go out into the water, releasing bubbles, but will not be able to enter.
3. In those recipes that require fermentation of the drink, it is better to use an ordinary glass jar of the required volume. It will be inconvenient to infuse the drink in a bottle.
4. Kissel is not just a drink, it can also be a useful, special ingredient. It can be part of cream, biscuit, pancakes, pancakes, cookies or some kind of filling. So if you have some jelly left, don’t rush to throw it away!
5. They say that fresh milk is much tastier and healthier. We mean the store version. So, if possible, make jelly from it. To prepare fresh milk at home, pour the regular product into a saucepan and place on the stove. At the lowest heat you need to simmer it for 3-4 hours until caramel color.
6. For variety, you can use more than just oatmeal. Try adding buckwheat, wheat, corn, barley and other varieties that you can find on sale.
7. To get something completely new, unusual and even more delicious, we suggest you use berries and fruits. Peel and sort any berries and puree them using an immersion blender. If necessary, grind the mass and then stir into the finished jelly. You'll get a full-fledged sweet dessert!
8. You can grind the jelly not only through a sieve, it can also be a colander with a fine mesh or gauze. The last option will require more hands. The mass will have to be squeezed out well by hand.

Oatmeal-based jelly is an incredibly healthy and necessary drink! Learn how to cook it and treat it to all your family. You will definitely like it! Especially because each time the drink can be given a new taste and aroma.

Preparation

To prepare the drink, you must complete the following steps:

1) Prepare all the indicated products. Take a three liter glass jar. Mix all ingredients. Keep in mind that kefir and water should be at room temperature. The jar must be tightly closed; to do this, take the lid. Place in a warm place for a day so that the contents of the jar begin to ferment. According to the recommendations in the recipe, it is best to place it in a dark and secluded place, and you can also wrap it in a warm towel/blanket.

2) If it seems to you that such a process of preparing a recipe is quite troublesome and takes time, then rest assured that you will provide great benefits and joy to the stomach and the entire body. So, after twenty-four hours, you will be able to observe peculiar bubbles that will appear on the surface. The mixture inside the jar will separate into two layers.

3) If you are preparing jelly to treat the stomach and prevent other diseases in the summer, then twenty-four hours is enough for fermentation. However, if cooking is carried out in the fall or winter, it may take up to forty-eight hours, but no more! Fermentation is over, you can start filtering. You will need a large container and a colander.

4) Considering that the flakes will clog the colander, stock up on water for rinsing. You will need at least six or seven liters.

5) Then you need to pour the filtered water into jars, leave them for twenty hours. After the specified amount of time, a specific sediment should form at the bottom.

6) The following actions must be clear and accurate. You should drain all the liquid, but do not shake it. If you want, you can use a straw. As a result, you should get oat kvass and a concentrate intended for cooking jelly. You can store them for about three weeks in the refrigerator.

7) Next you need to start preparing it. You need to mix two tablespoons of concentrate with a glass of the resulting liquid. If you use regular water, then take at least twice as much concentrate. Place the saucepan on the stove, turn the heat to low and stir constantly so as not to burn. Continue cooking until it boils! If the jelly is liquid, then it is necessary to cook until it thickens.

The finished jelly according to Izotov’s recipe is ready for use. Pour into portioned cups and delight your loved ones with a healthy drink that will help strengthen the immune system and save you from many nasty diseases.
