NYE Siggie Entrée

Cured salmon (bought admittedly and it was damn good cured gravlax too, with dill), on blini (home made) and crème fraiche.   A touch of grated lemon zest at the end.  Divine.  Served with a 2012 Chablis Grand Cru we’d bought in Chablis.

Recipe for the blini so I don’t forget because they were very good and very made up on the spot, experimenting with sourdough starter and eggless:

100gms of sourdough starter
50 gms or so of T45 farine blu
50 gms or so of tepid milk
½ sachet yeast
½ sachet baking powder
2 tsp sugar
salt.

Use a stab blender to give it a really good mix so that the gluten develops and they don’t fall apart without the egg. 

I made these early in the day and quickly heated up the base in a hot pan just before serving.  Full fat crème fraiche is best (of course).
