Steps:
- For the crepe: Beat milk, eggs and 1 cup water in a bowl. Add flour and powdered sugar to make a thin batter.
- Pour 1/4 cup batter on a well-buttered medium hot 10-inch fry pan, spreading it as thin as possible. Fry until light brown, then flip and brown other side until light brown. Turn out on wax paper. Repeat with remaining batter.
- For the cheese filling: Mix ricotta, cream cheese, eggs, powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl. Spread evenly over the surface of a crepe. Tuck in ends and roll up. Cook in butter in a fry pan until brown on both sides. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
- Serve with sour cream and fruit preserves.
CHEESE MATZO BLINTZES WITH ASPARAGUS AND DILL
Steps:
- Make crêpes:
- Blend milk, matzo meal, eggs, oil, and salt in a blender until smooth. Let batter stand 30 minutes.
- Stir batter before using. Lightly brush a 10-inch nonstick skillet with oil and heat over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Holding skillet off heat, pour in 1/3 cup batter, immediately tilting and rotating skillet to coat bottom. (If batter sets before skillet is coated, reduce heat slightly for next crêpe.) Return skillet to heat and cook crêpe until top is set and edge and bottom are golden, about 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat and loosen edge of crêpe with a flexible heatproof spatula. Quickly invert skillet over a plate to release crêpe. Make 11 more crêpes in same manner, brushing skillet lightly with oil for each and stacking crêpes on plate as cooked.
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
- Make filling:
- Cook asparagus in a wide 4- to 5-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, until just tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer asparagus with a slotted spoon to a cutting board to cool. Cut off and reserve tips, then finely chop stalks.
- Stir together cottage cheese, chopped stalks, dill, egg, pepper, and salt.
- Assemble blintzes:
- Put 1 crêpe, paler side up, on a work surface and spread a scant 1/3 cup of filling in a horizontal line just below center of crêpe, leaving a 3/4-inch border at each end. Fold in sides of crêpe over ends of filling, then, beginning at bottom, roll up to enclose filling. Transfer, seam side down, to a lightly buttered 15- by 10-inch shallow baking pan. Fill and transfer remaining 11 crêpes in same manner.
- Bake blintzes, covered with foil, until filling is hot, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Make topping just before blintzes are ready to serve:
- Heat butter in a 10- to 12-inch skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides. Add scallions and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in asparagus tips, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until asparagus is heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in dill. Spoon topping over blintzes.

Steps:
- For the filling: In a medium bowl, combine farmer cheese, egg, sugar, matzo meal or bread crumbs and vanilla. Using a fork, mix well; set aside.
- For the batter: In a large bowl, combine milk, eggs, durum flour, cake flour, vegetable oil and 1/4 cup cold water. Whisk until batter is smooth.
- Place a 9-inch well-seasoned crepe pan or heavy skillet over medium-low heat. When pan is well heated, film it lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Allow pan to heat again for a few moments, then ladle 1/2 cup batter into skillet and tilt in all directions to spread batter thinly and evenly. Cook until underside is pale yellow-white and edges lift easily from bottom of pan, about 3 minutes. Adjust heat as needed if crepe is cooking too quickly or slowly.
- Use a spatula to flip crepe, then cook other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. (The first crepe often tears or folds; there will still be enough batter for 10 crepes.) Transfer crepe to a plate, and repeat with remaining batter to make 10 crepes.
- Place a crepe on a work surface and spread 3 to 4 tablespoons filling on one side. Starting from filled side, roll blintz and stack on a serving plate or in a container seam side down. At this point blintzes may be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- To serve, place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium heat. Melt a tablespoon butter and add as many blintzes as possible without crowding pan. Cook until golden brown on bottoms and filling is heated through, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook other sides until golden brown, about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm; repeat with remaining crepes and filling. Serve immediately, seam side down, garnished with sour cream, if desired.

CHEF JOHN'S CHEESE BLINTZES
If you're ever talking to someone who's been to, or used to live in, New York City, and the subject of cheese blintzes comes up, you will almost always see their face light up. While there are several steps, they're fairly simple, and so totally worth the effort.

Steps:
- Place 3 eggs, flour, milk, water, vegetable oil, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract in a blender. Blend until completely smooth, 1 or 2 minutes, scraping down sides as needed. Let batter sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
- Whisk together ricotta cheese, cream cheese, lemon zest, egg, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix together thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate.
- Heat a 10-inch, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray or brush lightly with vegetable oil. Pour in about 1/4 cup batter. Immediately swirl batter around to coat bottom of pan. Cook until surface looks dry, about 1 minute. Flip crepe over to briefly cook other side, about 30 seconds. Remove to a plate. Repeat with the rest of batter. Stack crepes.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly butter a baking dish.
- Spoon 3 to 4 tablespoons of filling onto the crepe, about an inch from edge nearest you. Fold edge over filling and flatten slightly. Fold in both sides, then roll up crepe into a small filled rectangle, ending with the seam on the bottom, creating a blintz.
- Melt butter in skillet over medium heat. Cook the blintzes until golden brown on both sides, turning gently, about 2 minutes. Transfer to buttered baking dish.
- Bake in preheated oven to firm up the filling, about 12 minutes. Cool blintzes 10 minutes before serving. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar.

EASY MATZO
At its most traditional, matzo is made from just flour and water. But adding a little salt for flavor and olive oil for richness yields an airy, tender matzo that's easy to make. This version also includes a small amount of whole-wheat flour for earthiness, but you can use all white flour if you prefer. Matzos will keep for at least a week stored airtight at room temperature. (Note that these matzos are not kosher for Passover.)

Steps:
- With the racks positioned the top third and middle, heat oven to 500 degrees.
- In a large bowl, use a wooden spoon to stir together all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour and kosher salt. Add in 1/2 cup water and the 1/4 cup oil, and stir until a pliable dough forms, adding more water if the dough seems dry.
- Lightly flour a work surface, and knead dough briefly until it becomes smooth. Cut dough into 4 even pieces. Re-flour your work surface, if necessary, and use a rolling pin to roll out 2 pieces as thinly as you can, about 6 to 8 inches in diameter. (They should be almost translucent.) Aim for rounds, but don't worry if they are oblong.
- Transfer each matzo to a separate cookie sheet, and prick each one all over with a fork. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if you like. Bake until golden all over and lightly browned in spots, about 7 to 12 minutes. (Timing will depend on how thinly you rolled the dough.) Transfer matzos to a wire rack and let cool.
- While first batch is baking, roll out remaining dough. If you have enough baking sheets, transfer the rolled dough onto another two sheets. If not, use the warm sheet trays you used in the first batch, being careful while transferring and pricking the dough with a fork. Bake and cool.
ASPARAGUS WITH CREAMY DILL SAUCE
Nothing says "spring" like a fresh crop of young asparagus. And this recipe superbly ushers in this wonderful season. The delicate cheese sauce and assorted seasonings nicely complement the tender stalks without being overwhelming. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Crêpe Batter:.
- Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a bowl and set aside. Combine the egg, milk, butter and vanilla extract in another bowl and stir until smooth. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until blended into a relatively smooth batter. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator. (The batter may be prepared to this point and stored in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours.).
- Heat a crêpe pan or small skillet over medium heat. Brush the pan with melted butter. Pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into the crêpe pan, swirling and tilting the pan to coat the bottom. Cook (reducing the heat if necessary) until the first side is set and has a little color, about 2 minutes. Use a thin metal or heatproof rubber spatula to loosen the crêpe and turn it over. Cook on the other side until set and very lightly colored (the crêpe will not be as dark on the second side as on the first), 1 minute more. Stack the crêpes between layers of parchment or waxed paper as you cook.
- Cheese Filling:.
- Purée the cottage cheese and cream cheese in a blender until very smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the sugar, egg and vanilla extract by hand. Keep refrigerated until you are ready to finish the crêpes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly brush a medium baking dish with melted butter.
- Spoon or pipe about 2 tablespoons of the cheese filling onto each crêpe. Fold each crêpe into quarters, or fold the sides in to the center, then roll each crêpe up. Place the crêpes seam side down in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with melted butter and bake until very hot, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Serve immediately, 2 crêpes per serving, with fruit or compote.

BLINTZES FOR PASSOVER
This comes from a cookbook published by a local chapter of B'nai B'rith Women in 1963. They offer two fillings, both milk-based and meat-based. You could also use fruit fillings, such as a fruit compote. Note: Zaar doesn't recognize matzah cake meal, only regular matzah meal. The recipe specifies the cake meal.
