  • 100 g spelt flour (Type 630)

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Dissolve yeast and sugar in the milk. Stir in 1 tbsp poppy seeds and both flours. Add a pinch of salt and eggs, then mix into a smooth dough. Cover the dough and let it rest for about 30 minutes.

    Meanwhile whisk together crème fraîche and sour cream, seasoning with salt and pepper. Wash, dry, and chop the herbs. Peel the beetroot and grate it on a kitchen grater. Sprinkle poppy seeds over the dip.

    Slice the salmon into thin pieces and lay them overlapping on parchment paper. Sprinkle with grated beetroot and herbs, then drizzle with olive oil.

  4. 4.

    Heat a non‑stick pan and bake portions of 12 blini: pour ½ tbsp rapeseed oil into the pan, drop about 3 spoonfuls of dough onto each side, and cook for 3 minutes per side over medium heat. Plate the blini with the dip and salmon together.
