Method

Blinis Preparation

1

Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2

Make Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add eggs, activated yeast mixture, and melted butter. Mix until smooth, then cover and let rise for about 1 hour in a warm place.

3

Cook Blinis

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour small amounts of batter onto the skillet to form small rounds. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Brown Butter Preparation

4

Brown the Butter

In a small pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Continue cooking until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Sieved Egg Preparation

5

Sieve the Eggs

Peel the hard-boiled eggs and pass them through a fine sieve or grate them to create a fine texture.

Assembly

Serve

On each blini, drizzle the brown butter, add a layer of sieved egg, and top with caviar and fresh herbs. Serve immediately.
