Such preparation for the winter, if necessary, can become both an appetizer and a side dish. The combination of rice with vegetables is not only delicious, but also very satisfying. If there is no time to cook, it is very convenient to just open a jar of such a salad and serve it right away. The salad can be eaten both cold and hot. Adding vinegar is an optional step, but you need to remember that without vinegar, the workpiece can be stored no more than a couple of months, while with vinegar the salad will stand perfectly all winter.
