Instructions

1. Mix wheat flour with yeast, stir in warm water and let rise for 90 minutes. Stir in buckwheat flour and warm milk and let rise again (90 min). Stir in the soft butter. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar until creamy. Put the egg yolk under the dough and let rise again (60 min).
2. Beat the egg whites with the salt until stiff and fold in. Bake small cakes at not too high a heat.
3. The finished blini is best served fresh from the pan - if necessary, keep it layered in the oven if necessary (best in aluminum foil, otherwise they will dry out)
4. By the way, blini are eaten in the classic way with sour cream and caviar - but also with melted butter, salmon, sturgeon, anchovies in milk, herb quark, etc. Children in particular also like the sweet version with jam, pickled fruits, sweet quark or compote .
5. The amount is enough for 4 hungry eaters to feed them full - or for around 6 - 10 as small appetizers / starters.
6. Attention: The long walking times mean it takes a long time - but the effort is worth it! The things taste really very tasty!
