About Dolmades

Dolmades are a staple of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, originating from Greece and Turkey. These savory stuffed grape leaves are typically filled with a mixture of rice, herbs like dill and parsley, onions, and sometimes ground meat. Flavors are enhanced with olive oil and lemon juice, giving dolmades their signature tangy taste. They are often served as appetizers or part of a mezze platter. Dolmades can be a healthy choice, as they are rich in fiber from the grape leaves and filling, while olive oil adds heart-healthy fats. However, they can be calorie-dense depending on the amount of oil used, and some variations may be high in sodium. Whether enjoyed freshly made or jarred, dolmades offer a unique combination of textures and flavors while providing a nutrient-dense option for mindful eaters.
