Looking for a sure-fired way to impress your guests this Holiday
Season? Try serving this Russian holiday specialty and wait for the
kudos and applause.  Blini is a delectable tradition from Russia that
you can add to your  recipe repertoire today, from The Cook & Kitchen
Staff at  Recipe-a-Day.com, as Holiday Recipes from Russia continue.
Heat 1 cup milk to 105-F to 115-F degrees. Pour heated milk into a
large bowl and stir in yeast and 2 cups of flour. Mix until smooth.
Cover the bowl and set in a warm place for about 1-hour, or until the
batter has doubled in size. Stir down with a wooden spoon. Stir in  egg
yolks, butter, sugar, salt and remaining flour, alternating with
remaining milk. Stir until mixture is almost smooth. Cover bowl and
set aside for 45-minutes to an hour, until the batter has doubled in
size, again. Stir down batter. Beat egg whites to stiff peaks and
gently fold into the batter.  For each pancake, pour about 1/3 cup of
the mixture onto a griddle or  frying pan that has been lightly greased
with vegetable oil. Fry over  medium heat for about 4-minutes, turning
once, until pancake is golden  brown. Keep finished Blini in a warm
oven while continuing to prepare  the remaining batter. Garnish each
pancake with 1 Tbs. Caviar and/or  Sour Cream and roll up. Placed
rolled Blini on a platter and serve.  Happy Cooking from The Cook &
