Do traditional grape leaves (dolmades) contain wheat or flour?

Is it safe to order Dolmades in a Greek restaurant on a gluten free diet?I usually ask if my order contains wheat, but often they only consider “bread” wheat and don’t take into account small amounts of flour (as found in rice pilafs and 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... Show More

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.... Show More
