Tips for Perfect Blinis<\/h2>\n

To get super soft and fluffy blinis, use fermented milk, buttermilk, or, if needed, plain yogurt with a little vinegar added a few minutes beforehand, just like for extra fluffy pancakes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is important not to overmix the batter. It should remain fairly thick.<\/p>\n

To get nicely round blinis, use a piping bag. This makes piping easier and helps control the size of each blini. <\/p>\n
