Ingredients

The Crepes:

1 ½ tablespoons butter

1 Eggland’s Best Large Egg

⅓ cup flour

½ teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons sugar

½ cup milk

The Sauce:

¾ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

3 teaspoons fresh dill fronds, chopped

3 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon prepared horseradish

¼ teaspoon salt

The Filling:

1, 5.2 ounce package soft garlic and herb cheese, softened to room temperature

5 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced

3 Eggland’s Best Hard-Cooked Peeled Eggs, chopped

2 tablespoons capers, drained

⅓ cup red onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons fresh dill fronds, chopped

1 lemon, cut into quarters

The Garnish:

2 Eggland’s Best Hard-Cooked Peeled Eggs, chopped

¼ cup capers, drained

¼ cup red onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons dill fronds

4 lemon slices

Preparation

Make the Crepes:

  1. Place the butter in an 8-10” non-stick skillet over medium high heat. Let the butter melt (but not brown) while you make the batter.
  2. To make the batter, combine the egg, flour, salt, sugar, and about ⅓ of the milk in a medium size bowl. Whisk vigorously until the batter is smooth.
  3. Add the remaining milk and whisk again until you have a smooth thin batter.
  4. The butter should be melted in the skillet by this time. Pour the butter into the batter whisking until a cohesive smoother batter is formed. Leave any residual butter in the pan.
  5. Using a ¼ cup measure, tilt the pan off the heat slightly and pour the batter into the bottom side of the pan. Quickly swirl the pan so that the batter completely coats the bottom of the pan in a thin layer. If you have holes, just pour a little batter in to fill them.
  6. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lightly brown and the crepe pulls away from the side of the pan.
  7. Lift the edge with a spatula and flip the crepe to the other side (You can use your hands, or a spatula to flip). The crepe should have a light brown lacey look on the cooked side.
  8. Cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes and remove to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter. This recipe will make about 4, 8-10” crepes.

Make the Sauce:

  1. Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.

Make the Filling:

  1. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of the soft garlic and herb cheese over ½ of each crepe and top with a slice of the salmon.
  2. Sprinkle ¼ of the eggs, capers, onion, and dill on top of the salmon. Squeeze some lemon juice over the top.
  3. Fold the plain side of the crepe over the top of the filling and then fold that side in half, creating a ‘wedge’ shape.

Garnish:

  1. Top with a dollop of the sauce and garnish with more of the eggs, capers, onion, dill, and a lemon slice.
