Instant oats

Description

Instant oats are thinly rolled, light beige flakes with a delicate, slightly nutty flavor and creamy consistency when soaked in hot water or milk. Due to their fine texture, they soften quickly, creating a smooth porridge with a neutral aroma that is easy to season. They are a whole grain product rich in complex carbohydrates, soluble fiber (beta-glucan), plant protein, as well as B vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, iron, and zinc. Regular consumption supports a feeling of fullness, regulates blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and positively affects gut microbiota, all while being low in fat. In the kitchen, instant oats are great for quick porridge, smoothies, desserts, muesli, baking, and thickening sauces. Store them in a dry, cool, and dark place in a tightly sealed container, away from moisture and strong odors; after opening, use within a few months or store in the refrigerator to extend freshness.
