Dolmades (Stuffed Grape Leaves) for Greek Easter

If you thought that the Easter fun was over far too soon, not to fear! Greek Easter is this coming Sunday, awash with delicious traditions all its own. Not to be missed are these tasty little pockets of meat, rice, and nuts, expertly seasoned with our savory and tangy El Greco blend. They're called "dolmas" in the singular, and "dolmades" when referring to the scores of them you'll eat once you've had a taste of their perfect balance of Mediterranean flavors, all wrapped in a convenient little two-bite nosh.All of the ingredients ought to be readily available in most markets, including grape leaves, which often come in cans or jars. If you've got a grape vine over an arbor, fresh work wonderfully, too; just poach them a bit of salted water with a half a lemon thrown in. Admittedly a little time-consuming, the dolmades can be prepared 2 to 3 days before serving, and refrigerated or frozen until you're ready to use them. If you do freeze them, they can be thawed overnight in the refrigerator, and gently heated with a little broth or water before serving. You'll find them more than worth the effort! Kalo Pascha!
