blini

blini
blini li"ni (bl[=e]"n[=e]; bl[i^]"n[=e]), n. pl.; sing. {blin}. [Russian.] Russian pancakes of buckwheat flour and yeast, sometimes made from white flour; they are usually served folded over, with caviar and sour cream on the inside; -- properly, it is a plural word (from the Russian plural of blin) but in America, often used as singular; thus the common plural {blinis}.

Syn: bliny, blinis. [WordNet 1.5 +PJC]
