grape leaves
Sarma's edible casing
Grape leaves are the broad, lobed leaves of the grapevine, used in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cooking.
They're typically stuffed with rice, meat, or herbs and rolled into packets called dolmas or dolmades: We ordered grape leaves as an appetizer.
Fresh leaves are blanched before use; preserved leaves come packed in brine.
