Traditionally the dough for bliny should be made 5-6 hours before cooking. The real dough for bliny should consist of equal parts of flour and liquid. "Liquid" is not only milk, but also butter, eggs, cream and yeast. It is also important to make sure that:
- the yeast is very fresh (and do not take too much yeast!)
- the dough is very smooth and there are no lumps
- beaten egg whites are poured into the cream (and not vice versa!). This makes the pancakes especially tender.
