Cooking Instructions
Blinis
1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix till no flour is present (it’s fine if there are clumps, these will disappear as it proofs) cover and let it sit for 30-45min until it’s bubbly and batter like
2. Warm up your pan for a few minutes so it’s evenly heated then keep on a medium-low flame, drop small dollops of batter into the pan to make your small pikelets.
3. Flip when a lot of bubbles start to pop (like when you make pancakes)
4. Set the pikelets aside to cool and cover once they are no longer hot.
Cream cheese spread:
- Brunoise or finely dice your eschallot then set aside
- Cream your cream cheese till it’s smooth add your sour cream, eschalot & chives, then mix till combined.
Assembly
1. Spread some of the cheese spread over the pikelet, then roll a piece of smoked salmon up while twisting it to creat a rough rose look and place ontop of the pikelet.
2. Garnish with dill or chopped chives and enjoy
Side notes:
- You can use a piping bag if you want more perfect rounds
- Try jazzing it up with some caviar if you want it a lil fancy
Enjoy!
Wine Pairing
We recommend pairing these Salmon Blinis with our Impressionist Riesling.
This Eden Valley Riesling displays citrus fruits which offers a natural acidity that perfectly counteracts the slight oiliness and fattiness of smoked salmon.
