How to make Blini - Russian Pancake Recipe
RUSSIAN BLINI RECIPE
Today....
I wanted to share a special recipe of Blini ( they are very think pancakes like crepes).
My grandmother taught me how to cook and blini was the first thing I learned how to make. They are extremely special to me and always remind me of my babushka ( grandmother). She raised me and I am so grateful to her for everything. I lost her to cancer 2 years ago and cooking is one way of expressing my love for her and food.
I wanted to share this special recipe with you.
Blini (Russian crepes) is absolutely my most favorite breakfast. Widely popular Russian dish, especially eaten during the Maslenitsa festival in Russia and Latvia. All kinds of fillings are possible--sweet or savory. Thin layered Blini are also popular throughout a year, being served with different fillings and topped with sour cream or butter. The Russian word for blini is блины and alternative spellings include blintzes, bliny and blinchiki.
Ingredients :
2 cups or 500 ml of milk
3 Eggs
1 1/3 cups or 280 gr of flour

I am Russian/Jewish, and blinis/blintzes are a staple for us. In my family, we like to eat them as is, or stuff them with cheese or jellies.
Спасибо (spasibo), thank you for sharing!
You are really welcome, it is indeed a staple food i think in any Easter European country and also from Soviet Union times! Love it :)) Pozhalusto :)
Do you know the main difference between Russian and French crepes? They seems identical to me. No offence.
They are pretty much the same thing, but we call them blini :)
