| No Images? Click here  Yeasted Blini With Crème Fraîche and Caviar  These light and delicious Russian blini are leavened with yeast, which adds a complex tangy flavor and airy texture. Unlike many yeasted blini recipes, this one calls for only a single fermentation, saving you time without sacrificing results. (We know, because we tested it both ways.) Softly beaten egg whites, meanwhile, add even more lightness to the batter. The result is a perfect platform on which to heap sour cream (or crème fraîche) and caviar. The Kitchen Essential  A Nonstick Skillet To cook the blini, heat up a nonstick skillet and brush it with vegetable oil. Can you use a cast iron skillet instead of a nonstick? Of course you can. But pancakes are one of the few things that we prefer to cook in a nonstick skillet. No matter how well you’ve seasoned your cast iron pan, it really can’t compete when you need to guarantee that nothing will adhere.
