Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 1h40m

Yield Makes about 4 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (one 1/4-ounce envelope)
1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees)
1 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 large eggs, separated
Garnish: Creme fraiche and salmon or trout roe

Steps:

  • Sprinkle yeast over water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir together flour and 1/2 teaspoon plus a pinch of salt. Stir together buttermilk, butter, sugar, and egg yolks in a large bowl; whisk in yeast mixture, then flour mixture. Let stand, covered, in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  • Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into batter. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  • Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat, and coat with a thin layer of butter. Add a scant tablespoon batter for each blin (about 6 or 7 per skillet), and cook, flipping after bubbles appear at edges and color turns golden, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a parchment-lined tray, andlet cool for 30 minutes. Garnish with creme fraiche and caviar.

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 6 - 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups milk
1 package granular yeast
1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
1/2 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
4 eggs, separated
1/4 pound unsalted butter, melted
6 ounces red caviar
2 cups sour cream

Steps:

  • Scald the milk and set aside.
  • Dissolve the yeast in one-fourth cup warm water.
  • Sift the white flour into a bowl, add the buckwheat flour, salt and sugar.
  • Beat the egg yolks until thick. When the milk has cooled to lukewarm, add the yolks and three tablespoons of the melted butter. Add the yeast. Mix well and pour into the flour. Mix thoroughly, removing any lumps. Set aside in a warm place lightly covered with a towel for about two hours, or until doubled in bulk.
  • Whip the egg whites until they stand in stiff peaks and fold them into the batter.
  • Lightly butter a small frying pan. Pour in just enough of the pancake mixture to coat the bottom of the pan. When the mixture begins to bubble, turn the pancake over and cook lightly on the other side. Wrap the pancakes in a napkin and keep them warm in the oven while you cook the others. Serve in a pile, wrapped in a napkin.
  • Serve the caviar, the sour cream and the remaining melted butter in small bowls on the table. Each person puts a pancake on a plate, butters it, adds sour cream and caviar, and rolls it like a crepe.

BUCKWHEAT BLINI WITH CAVIAR



Buckwheat Blini With Caviar image

The holidays present a number of opportunities to splurge, and New Year's Eve is the ultimate night for it. Though it may seem a cliché, the classic combination of blini and caviar is the perfect example - indulgent, elegant and delectable to the extreme. If you are hosting a small crowd for drinks (preferably Champagne or vodka with these), it's all you need to serve, though it also can be a sit-down first course. Preparation is simple: the blini are topped with a dab of crème fraîche, a spoonful of caviar and a drizzle of butter.

Categories     lunch, main course

Time 3h15m

Yield About 60 3-inch blini, 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 package dry active yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
3 cups slightly warm milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup buckwheat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons melted butter
4 eggs, separated
6 ounces crème fraîche
1/4 pound (1 stick) melted butter, kept warm
At least 125 grams caviar or trout roe
2 tablespoons finely cut chives

Steps:

  • In large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in 1 cup milk. Stir in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and let stand until bubbly, about 10 minutes.
  • Combine remaining all-purpose flour, the buckwheat flour and salt. Add 2 cups milk to the yeast mixture and gradually whisk in flour-salt mixture until you have a smooth, thick batter. Whisk in melted butter. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Leave at room temperature and let batter slowly double in size, about 2 to 3 hours. (The batter may remain at room temperature even longer if necessary.) You may also mix batter and refrigerate overnight. Bring to room temperature before proceeding with recipe.
  • When you are ready to cook blini, stir down batter, which will have become quite frothy. Beat egg yolks and whisk into batter. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Gently fold egg whites into batter.
  • Spoon batter onto a hot, lightly greased griddle, using a large soup spoon to make blini that are 3 inches in diameter. Cook for about 2 minutes, until bottom is well browned. Flip and cook 1 minute more. (Wait until surface is covered in bubbles before flipping.) Keep warm in a low oven. Serve with a dollop of crème fraîche, a drizzle of butter, a generous spoonful of caviar and a sprinkling of chives.

BLINI WITH MUSHROOM CAVIAR



Blini With Mushroom Caviar image

In Russian kitchens, mushroom caviar is made with cooked mushrooms and lots of sour cream. I use canned tomatoes in this version, and the result makes a savory topping for blini (and for latke, I found, as I tested the recipe during Chanukah). Make sure to finely chop the mushrooms.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 12 blini toppings, four to six as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 shallots, minced
1 pound mushrooms, trimmed and finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 14-ounce can chopped tomatoes, with juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 batch buckwheat or cornmeal blini

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot. Cook, stirring, until tender, three to five minutes. Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, and add the garlic, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often over medium heat, for five minutes until the mushrooms are tender and fragrant. Add the tomatoes, and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, and taste and adjust the seasonings. There should be very little liquid in the pan. If there is, continue to simmer uncovered until most of the liquid has evaporated. Stir in the dill, and serve.

Categories     Milk/Cream     Fish     Cocktail Party     Valentine's Day     Oscars     New Year's Eve     Winter     Pan-Fry     Chive     Whole Wheat     Cookie

Yield Makes 24 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup buckwheat pancake mix (we like the unsweetened organic one from Whole Foods, but you can use any unsweetened kind and follow the package instructions for all pancake ingredients, using an egg if called for)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 egg
1 tablespoon melted butter or vegetable oil
2/3 cup milk (any fat content) or water
Black caviar (our favorite is paddlefish)
Crème fraîche
Chives, snipped
Smoked salmon (optional)
Minced red onion (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the pancake mix with the salt, egg, butter or oil, and milk or water.

  • 3. When the skillet is hot, spoon the batter into it a tablespoon at a time.
  • 4. Cook the blinis until tiny bubbles appear, about 1 minute, then flip them and fry until golden brown on each side.

BLINI WITH THREE CAVIARS



Blini with Three Caviars image

Categories     Milk/Cream     Fish     Gourmet

Yield Serves 18 with blini to spare

Number Of Ingredients 11

a 1/4 -ounce package (2 1/2 teaspoons) active dry yeast
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus additional for brushing the griddle
1 cup buckwheat flour (available at natural foods stores and specialty foods shops)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, separated
3/4 cup well-chilled heavy cream
about 2 cups sour cream as an accompaniment
about 4 ounces each black caviar, golden caviar, and salmon roe

Steps:

  • In a large bowl proof the yeast with 1/2 tablespoon of the sugar in 1/3 cup lukewarm water for 10 minutes, or until it is foamy. Stir in 1 cup of the milk, heated to lukewarm, the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons of the butter, and the buckwheat flour, beat the batter for 1 minute, and let it rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place for 2 hours or chill it, covered tightly, overnight. (Chilling overnight produces a tangier flavor. Let the batter come to room temperature before continuing with the recipe.) Stir in the remaining 1 cup milk, heated to lukewarm, the all-purpose flour, the salt, and the yolks, beat the mixture for 1 minute, and let it rise, covered with the plastic wrap, in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it is double in bulk and bubbly. In a bowl beat the cream until it holds soft peaks and fold it into the batter. In a metal bowl beat the egg whites until they just hold stiff peaks and fold them into the batter gently but thoroughly.
  • Heat a griddle or large skillet over moderate heat until it is hot, brush it lightly with the additional melted butter, and spoon tablespoons of the batter onto the griddle, spreading them to form 3-inch rounds. Cook the blini for 1 minute on each side, or until the undersides are golden. Transfer the blini as they are cooked to a platter and keep them warm, covered with a kitchen towel. Make blini with the remaining batter in the same manner, brushing the griddle lightly with the butter as necessary. The blini may be made 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the blini, covered with foil, in a 350°F. oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are warm, or microwave them on a microwave-safe plastic wrap, at high power (100%) for 2 minutes, or until they are warm.
  • Arrange 3 or 4 blini on each of 18 small plates, top them with some of the sour cream, and arrange some of the caviar decoratively on the sour cream.
