Blini =pancakes and I can buy them almost at any supermarket in UK and at many coffee-shops. With chocolate, jam and cream, they are mostly sweet here. In Russia are different varieties - sweet and savory. I never ate them with caviar, but with mince meat is nice, my husband loves them. I hated salo but could eat it frozen and then very thin sliced on piece of brown bread. Pickled (in Russia more popular fermented) food is very healthy, I have read an article on Dr.Mercola eg http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/12/29/sandor-katz-on-fermented-foods.aspx, particularly sauerkraut, it has some healing qualities for stomach ulcers and guts.
