Smoked Salmon On Buckwheat Blinis image

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield About 50 blinis

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup buckwheat flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup light beer
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3/4 cup egg whites (about 7 eggs)
4 tablespoons butter
1/4 pound smoked salmon (about 2 to 3 ounces), thinly sliced
1/2 cup creme fraiche or sour cream
Chopped fresh dill, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium-size bowl, combine the flour, oil, beer, salt and pepper. In another bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks are formed. Fold into the first mixture.
  • Set a large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and drop in spoonfuls of the batter, each about the size of a half dollar. (To prevent overcrowding, cook the batter in several batches.)
  • Cook the first batch of the rounds until they bubble, about 2 minutes. Turn them over and continue cooking until they are nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Remove the blinis and let them cool on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining butter and batter.
  • Top each blini with a bit of the smoked salmon, then a dollop of the creme fraiche or sour cream. Garnish with the fresh dill.

I'm allergic to buckwheat, so I used all-purpose flour instead. The blinis still turned out great!

These blinis are a great way to use up leftover smoked salmon. I always have some in my fridge and it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my blinis turned out really dry. I guess I'll have to try again.

I'm not a big fan of smoked salmon, but I still enjoyed this dish. The blinis and avocado were delicious.

I thought the blinis were a bit bland. I think I'll add some herbs or spices next time.

I had some trouble getting the blinis to cook evenly. Some of them were still doughy in the middle.

The smoked salmon was a bit too salty for my taste, but the rest of the dish was great.

I love the combination of flavors and textures in this dish. The crispy blinis, the creamy avocado, and the salty smoked salmon are all perfect together.

These buckwheat blinis were a hit at my last brunch party! The smokiness of the salmon paired perfectly with the tangy crème fraîche.
