BLINI WITH SMOKED SALMON
Steps:
- Combine both flours, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and 1 tablespoon of the clarified butter, then whisk into the flour mixture. Heat 1 tablespoon of the clarified butter in a medium saute pan and drop the batter into the hot skillet, 1 tablespoon at a time. Cook over medium-low heat until bubbles form on the top side of the blini, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 1 more minute, or until brown. Repeat with the remaining batter. (I clean the hot pan with a dry paper towel between batches.) Set aside.
- To serve, top the blini with a piece of smoked salmon. Add a dollop of creme fraiche and a sprig of dill.
BLINI WITH SMOKED HERRING TOPPING
Herring is a classic accompaniment for blini. A fish high in omega-3 fats, herring is sold both pickled and smoked. I use canned smoked herring for this topping. If you've never tasted herring preserved this way, you're in for a treat.

Steps:
- Crumble the smoked herring into a bowl. Add the celery, dill, lemon juice and yogurt. Stir together. The herring should be finely flaked, like canned tuna. Season with freshly ground pepper.
- Warm the blini, and top with small spoonfuls of the herring mixture. Garnish with radish slices and dill, and serve.
