Caviar Base

Accompaniments

Method

Preparation of Accompaniments

  1. 1

    Prepare the Blini

    If using store-bought blini, warm them gently in a skillet over low heat for about 1-2 minutes on each side until heated through. If making from scratch, prepare the blini batter and cook small pancakes in a non-stick skillet.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Crème Fraîche

    Place the crème fraîche in a small serving bowl and set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Chives

    Finely chop the chives and sprinkle them over the crème fraîche for garnish.

  4. 4

    Zest the Lemon

    Using a zester or fine grater, zest the lemon and set it aside to sprinkle over the caviar later.

Serving the Caviar

  1. 5

    Plate the Caviar

    On a serving platter, arrange the warmed blini in a circle. In the center, place the Beluga caviar.

  2. 6

    Add Accompaniments

    Serve the crème fraîche alongside the caviar with a small spoon for easy serving. Sprinkle the chopped chives and lemon zest over the caviar to enhance the flavors.

  3. 7

    Enjoy

    To enjoy, take a blini, add a dollop of crème fraîche, and a small spoonful of caviar. Optionally, add a little more chives or lemon zest to taste.
