Herbed Egg Crepes Filled with Smoked Salmon
- 10 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/3 cup coarsely chopped tarragon
- 1/3 cup coarsely chopped chervil or flat-leaf parsley
- 1/3 cup snipped chives, plus more for garnish
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- Olive oil, for brushing
- 1 cup creme fraiche
- 1 pound thinly sliced smoked salmon
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the heavy cream until blended.
- Add the tarragon, chervil and 1/3 cup of chives and season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
- Lightly brush an 8-inch nonstick skillet with olive oil and set it over moderate heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 3 tablespoons of the crepe batter, swirling to coat the bottom, and cook until golden around the edges, about 30 seconds.
- Carefully turn the crepe and continue cooking just until set, about 15 seconds longer.
- Transfer to a large plate lined with wax paper.
- Continue making crepes with the remaining batter, brushing the pan with more olive oil as necessary and layering the crepes with waxed paper.
- Arrange the crepes on a work surface.
- Spread lightly with the creme fraiche and top with slices of the smoked salmon.
- Fold each crepe in half, then in half again to form triangles.
- Transfer the stuffed crepes to plates, sprinkle the crepes with chives and serve.
