Ingredients

• 4.25 cups milk
• 5 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 0.33 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.13 teaspoons citric acid powder
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup boiling water
• 0.67 cups butter , divided

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Beat together milk and eggs in a large bowl until combined.
3. 3 Beat in sugar and salt. Mix in baking soda and citric acid until incorporated.
4. 4 Blend in flour, a little at a time, until combined. Beat in oil. Pour in boiling water, stirring constantly, until batter is thin and watery. Let rest for about 20 minutes.
5. 5 Brush a small frying pan with 1 tablespoon melted butter over medium-high heat. Pick the pan up off the heat. Pour in a ladleful of batter while you rotate your wrist, tilting the pan, so batter forms a circle and coats the bottom. The blini should be very thin.
6. 6 Return the pan to the heat. Cook blini for 90 seconds. Carefully lift up edge of blini to see if it's fully cooked: edges will be golden and bottom surface should have brown spots.
7. 7 Flip blini over and cook for 1 minute more.
8. 8 Transfer blini to a plate lined with a clean kitchen towel.
9. 9 Continue cooking remaining batter, adding 1 tablespoon butter to the pan for every 4 blinis. Stack blinis and cover with another kitchen towel to keep warm.
10. 10 Spread desired filling in the center of each blini.
11. 11 Fold 3 times to make a triangle shape or fold up all 4 sides, like a small burrito.
