16-blini pack

Blinis are one of the most traditional and versatile accompaniments for caviar.

Their role is simple: provide a warm, soft foundation that supports the caviar while allowing the roe itself to remain the focus.

Calvisius Blinis are crafted with a light, fluffy texture and a restrained flavor profile. Once gently warmed, they create a pleasant contrast with properly chilled caviar - warm and soft underneath, cool and delicate above.

Add a small amount of crème fraîche and a spoonful of caviar for a classic presentation, or serve the blinis more simply when you want the individual flavor of the roe to remain especially clear.

The result is an elegant bite that requires very little preparation.

Calvisius Blinis are easy to prepare shortly before the tasting.

1. Warm the Blinis

Gently warm the blinis in the oven or microwave according to your preferred method.

They should be pleasantly warm and soft rather than heavily toasted or crisp.

2. Add Crème Fraîche

Place a small dollop of crème fraîche on each warm blini.

Use it sparingly - its purpose is to add cool creaminess and texture, not to mask the caviar.

3. Finish with Caviar

Add a small spoonful of your preferred Calvisius caviar immediately before serving.

Use a mother-of-pearl or another appropriate non-metal utensil when handling the roe.

4. Serve Immediately

Serve while the blini is still warm and the caviar remains properly chilled.

This temperature and texture contrast is one of the pleasures of the classic blini-and-caviar combination.

The mild character of the blinis makes them suitable for a wide range of caviar styles.

Tradition Prestige

The soft blini and restrained crème fraîche enhance rather than mask Prestige's creamy, buttery character and silky texture.

Tradition Royal

A particularly good choice when you want the larger pearls and rounded flavor profile of Royal to remain visually and texturally prominent.

Tradition Elite

Keep the toppings minimal so Elite's extra-large pearls and deeper umami remain the centerpiece.

Oscietra

Blinis provide a neutral foundation for the nutty, persistent character of Oscietra Classic, Royal, or Imperial.

Siberian

The soft texture works well against the firmer roe and more pronounced marine character of Siberian caviar.

Sevruga

Use a restrained amount of crème fraîche so Sevruga's smaller pearls and intense saline character remain easy to appreciate.

Blinis are therefore particularly useful when serving several caviars at the same table: the accompaniment can remain consistent while the differences between the roe become the focus.

Although traditionally associated with caviar, blinis can also be used as a versatile base for other savory appetizers.

Try them with:

• Smoked salmon
• Smoked or cured fish
• Crème fraîche
• Fresh herbs
• Delicate seafood preparations

For a caviar-focused occasion, however, keep additional ingredients simple and restrained.

The objective is to enhance rather than mask the flavor of the caviar.

Each package contains:

16 Calvisius Blinis
