Method

Make the Crispelle

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sour cream, eggs, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until smooth.

  2. 2

    Add Butter and Chives

    Stir in the melted butter and chopped chives until evenly mixed.

  3. 3

    Cook the Crispelle

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a small amount of batter into the skillet, spreading it into a round shape. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.

Make the Ramp Buttercream

  1. 4

    Blend Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine the ramp leaves, softened butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. 5

    Adjust Seasoning

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lemon juice as desired.

Prepare the Buttered Radishes

  1. 6

    Sauté the Radishes

    In a small skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the halved radishes and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.

  2. 7

    Season

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 8

    Plate the Crispelle

    Place a crispelle on each plate. Spread a generous dollop of ramp buttercream on top.

  2. 9

    Add Radishes and Garnish

    Top with the sautéed buttered radishes and finish with chive blossoms for garnish.
