1
Selecting the Caviar
Choose high-quality caviar such as Beluga, Osetra, or Sevruga. Ensure it is stored properly in a cool environment.
2
Serving Temperature
Remove the caviar from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving to allow it to reach room temperature. This enhances the flavor.

3
Making Blini
You can either make blini from scratch or buy pre-made ones. If making from scratch, combine flour, milk, eggs, and yeast to create a batter, then cook small pancakes on a hot skillet until golden brown.
4
Preparing Crème Fraîche
Place crème fraîche in a serving bowl. It can be served plain or mixed with chopped chives and finely chopped shallots for added flavor.
5
Preparing Lemon Wedges
Cut the lemon into wedges to serve on the side. This adds a refreshing contrast to the rich caviar.

6
Arranging the Plate
On a serving platter, arrange the blini, crème fraîche, lemon wedges, and caviar. Use small spoons or mother-of-pearl spoons to serve the caviar to avoid altering its flavor.
7
Beverage Pairing
Serve the caviar with chilled Champagne or vodka on the side for an exquisite pairing.
