Caviar and Accoutrements

Buttermilk Blini

Method

Caviar and Accoutrements Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Accoutrements

    Finely chop the chives and dice the red onion. Arrange the chives, red onion, and lemon wedges on a serving platter alongside the caviar.

Buttermilk Blini Preparation

  1. 2

    Mix the Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

  2. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until smooth and homogeneous.

  3. 4

    Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

  4. 5

    Cook the Blini

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet for each blini. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.

  5. 6

    Assemble the Dish

    Serve the warm blini stacked on a plate with a generous dollop of Tsar Nicoulai Reserve American Sturgeon Caviar on top. Garnish with chives and red onion, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
