Time 2h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup whole milk
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup buckwheat flour
4 teaspoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
4 ounces crème fraîche
4 ounces smoked salmon
2 ounces caviar of your choice
minced chives

Steps:

  • Place milk and 3 tablespoons butter in small saucepan. Stir over low heat just until butter melts. Meanwhile, whisk together both flours, sugar, salt, and yeast in a medium bowl. Pour warm milk mixture into dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature until doubled in volume, 1½-1¾ hours.
  • After resting, batter will be bubbly and lofty. Whisk to deflate; then stir in beaten eggs just to incorporate-the texture should be silky. Meanwhile, set a skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter. Working in batches, pour 2 tablespoons batter for each blini onto skillet, spacing apart. Cook until bubbles form on top and they begin to pop, about 1½ minutes. Turn blinis; cook until golden brown on bottom, another 1½ minutes (add more butter to the pan as you need it). Transfer blinis to a serving platter. Tent with foil to keep warm while you cook remaining blinis. Makes approximately 12 blinis.
  • Assembly: Serve blinis with a dollop of crème fraîche, smoked salmon, and caviar-the more the better!

Time 35m

Yield 18 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/3 cup buckwheat flour
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
1 extra-large egg
1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, clarified, divided
1/2 pound smoked salmon, thinly sliced
1/4 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
Fresh dill sprig, for garnish

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 SALMON

A few years ago, a friend of Ina Garten's (The Barefoot Contessa) in Paris threw a party, but there was a problem. While he had taken care of the drinks, the food slipped his mind. Ina stepped in with these crowd-pleasing blini topped with smoked salmon and creme fraiche. It was a brilliant save, brightened even further with some bubbly.
