1/3 c. minced shallots
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 lb. butter, softened
1/2 c. white vinegar
2 c. heavy cream
1/4 tsp. Pepper
ASSEMBLY:
1/4 c. vinegar
3 oz. very thinly sliced smoked salmon
6 eggs
Sprigs of dill
BLANC Dill Crepes: 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper 1/2 c. water 2 tbsp. minced dill Corn oil 1 egg 1 egg yolk 1/2 c. milk 1/2 tsp. grated lemon rind Combine the flour with the salt and pepper. Beat together the egg, egg yolk, milk, water, lemon rind and dill. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Whisk to combine well. Batter will have consistency of heavy cream. Brush a crepe pan (7 inches across the bottom) lightly with corn oil. Heat until quite hot but not smoking. Pour in about 3 tablespoons of batter and quickly swirl to coat the bottom evenly. Cook until surface bubbles and bottom is lightly browned and can be easily lifted from the pan. Turn the crepe with a spatula and brown the other side. Continue with the rest of the batter. Follow procedure for basic Beurre Blanc. Keep warm or make up to a day ahead without adding the butter. Bring to a boil just before serving, adding the butter off the heat at the end. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Warm the sauce and have ready a large pot filled with 4 inches of simmering water and the 1/4 cup of vinegar. Put the crepes lighter sides up on a baking sheet. Top each with 1/2 ounce of smoked salmon. Crack the eggs into the simmering water and poach to taste (2 to 4 minutes). Transfer the eggs with a slotted spoon to paper toweling to drain and then set each egg in the center of a crepe. Fold opposite sides of the crepe over so that they meet in the middle. Reheat in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to warm individual plates. Pour 2 ounces of the beurre blanc over each portion and garnish with a sprig of fresh dill. Serve at once. For an extra special touch, garnish each portion with a dab of caviar. Instead of wrapping the eggs in crepes, serve them on a bed of cappellini (use 1/2 lb. dried or 3/4 lb. fresh for 5 servings) tossed with a little butter, pepper, minced dill, and slivers of smoked salmon. Top with Beurre Blanc. Substitute scrambled eggs for the poached eggs.

Heat a 7 inch frying pan slowly; test temperature by sprinkling in a few drops of water. When drops bounce about, temperature is right. Grease pan lightly with butter. Measure batter, 2 tablespoons at a time, into pan, tilting pan to cover bottom. Bake crepe 1 to 2 minutes, or until bottom browns; turn; bake 1 minute longer. As crepes are baked, stack on a plate with paper toweling between; keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter, buttering pan before each baking, to make 12 crepes. Melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter in a medium-size saucepan; blend in the 3 tablespoons of flour. Cook, stirring constantly, until bubbly. Stir in remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper, tarragon and cream. Continue cooking until sauce thickens and boils 1 minute.

Blend 3/4 cup of the sauce with salmon and chives in a medium-size bowl; stir lemon juice into remaining sauce. Place a heaping tablespoon of the salmon mixture on each crepe; roll up, jelly roll fashion; place in a single layer in a buttered broiler-proof dish (13 x 9 x 2 inches). Pour remaining sauce over crepes; sprinkle Parmesan cheese over all. Bake in hot oven (400 degrees) 10 minutes, or until bubbly. (If you prefer top slightly brown, place in broiler for 2-3 minutes.)
