Do traditional grape leaves (dolmades) contain wheat or flour?
Is it safe to order dolmades at a Greek restaurant while following a gluten-free diet? I typically ask whether my dish contains wheat, but I often find that they only consider obvious sources like bread. I'm concerned about hidden gluten, such as small amounts of flour that may be present in rice pilafs or certain seasonings. Thanks!

None of the 6 recipes I just read contain any sort of wheat product, with the possible exception of the one that called for chicken broth that could contain some wheat product. So, no it isn’t likely that dolmades have gluten in them

gluten comes from the protein that is found in wheat, which is a grain. Its what makes breads chewy. Because grape leaves are neither a wheat or a grain, it will not have gluten.
