Marianna’s Dolmades

Recipes for stuffed grape leaves vary from region to region, but these Dolmades from Marianna’s are firmly planted in the Greek tradition. Each dolma is carefully hand-wrapped in Sultana grape vine leaves harvested from the Kazakis family farm in Halkidiki, and stuffed with a bright, herbaceous blend of rice, onions, mint, dill and lemon juice.

These dolmades add a fresh quality to any mezze spread. Do as the Greeks do and arrange the dolmades on a platter and finish them off with a drizzle of delicate extra virgin olive oil, like Biancolilla Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Titone, and a squeeze of lemon.
