Ingredients for Wholewheat Blinis with American Caviar
45ml warm water (41°C to 46°C)
1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
180ml whole milk, room temperature
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted, cooled slightly
2 tablespoons soured cream plus additional for serving
1 large egg, separated
1/8 teaspoons sugar
1/8 teaspoons salt
60g plain flour
1/2 cup wholemeal flour
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
Vegetable oil (for frying)
60g American caviar
How to make Wholewheat Blinis with American Caviar
Pour 45ml warm water into bowl. Sprinkle yeast over; stir to blend. Let stand until yeast dissolves, about 10 minutes.
Whisk milk, melted butter, 2 tablespoons soured cream, egg yolk, sugar, and salt into yeast mixture. Add both flours; whisk until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand at room temperature until very small bubbles begin to form on top of batter, 2 1/2 to 3 hours (batter will not rise).
Using electric mixer, beat egg white in another medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold beaten egg white and dill into batter. Brush griddle or large nonstick skillet with oil; heat over medium heat. Working in batches, drop batter by tablespoonfuls onto griddle; cook until bubbles form on top and blinis are golden on bottom, about 1 minute. Turn blinis over and cook until golden on bottom, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer blinis to rimmed baking sheet. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Rewarm uncovered in 177°C oven 5 minutes.
Serve blinis with soured cream and caviar.
