It’s so beautiful to see that despite our diversity we have so much in common even if it's in the form of an ancient food recipe. You did very well as your first making dolma although I would have added more rice to the felling, used broth or stock instead of water and add a squeeze of lemon to finish up the dish.

Greetings from Armenia First of all, thank you for preparing our Armenian dish and introducing it to your compatriots nice to see you make it, you can also try our other type of tolma called summer tolma. We wrap it in cabbage, arrange it in the pot, and at the end I fill it with tomatoes, eggplant, and sweet pepper. and put it in the same pot, it also turns out very tasty.look it up on youtube and see how they make it Enjoyed watching and thanks again♥️♥️♥️

Thank you for covering Armenian food, very grateful. You did a beautiful job, your technique is fabulous. I’ve never done parsley, I am going to try that. The word “dolma” is ottoman-ized word for this Armenian food. Yes, it is an Armenian food, you can get on it, because of the Armenians cultivation of wine and grape leaves. The oldest winery is found in Armenia. The proper word for “dolma” is “leetzk,” although no one understands or uses this word any longer. Another sad example of their genocide.

My great-grandmother called those sarma. Dolma was stuffed veggies (like peppers, zucchini).

This is the recipe my family in Egypt makes. You should use medium grain rice. I learned a technique to roll these in one hand and do the final tuck with the other hand. This method helps you not overstuff. Love this series, new sub

That looks like fun!

😍Dolmades are one of my favourite foods, I really should try making them myself, they are quite difficult to find in Northern Ireland. Thanks for the inspo!

Dolmas are definitely one of my favorite foods. I have two cans left of them in my kitchen! I've tried many different countries' versions, and each of them says theirs is the best... but Greek is my favorite. Some call them dolmatas (dolmadas?)... I've wanted to make these for years. Assyrian ladies at my church make them and they also do the same with stuffed small peppers. They're amazing. You've given me the encouragement I need! I'm doing it. :)

It depends on the density of the ingredient. Fir example, molasses is more dense than water, so it sinks. 1g of water is equivalent to 1 ml of water. I think the metric system was designed that way.

Small bit of advice, kilograms to liter for most liquid foods is reasonably close to 1 to 1. This is because 1 kg of water takes up one liter. Tomatoes are mostly water so it will likely be very close.

They make a similar thing in Egypt with cabbage leaves called Kromp.

Dolma is not just stuffed grape leaves, you can stuff zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, cabbage leaves even potatoes. Traditionally meat is not used in grape leaves for armenian dolma (Tolma) Yelanchi. Grape leaves use rice, pine nuts, onions, and parsley. You want to pick and use grape leaves before June 15th when they are new grown and most tender. You want to blanche them in hot water to sofren them for rolling same for the cabbage leaves. For the other stuffing for the cabbage leaves, and other vegetables you want 1 pound of ground beef or lamb, 1 large onion,2 cloves garlic both chopped, some parsley chopped, 1 cup of rice some chopped mint (spearmint not peppermint) salt and black pepper to taste. and 1 cup pinnuts. steam the grape leaves, while you boil the other stuffed veggies in chicken broth cook for 1/2 hour. for the veggies serve in a soup bowl top with yogurt and sumac.

Blanching them won't help, if they are tough it's because they were picked too late in the season and they've become fiberous Spring grape leaves are very tender

Just so you know 100 grams of water is equal to 100 ml of water, so whilst they are not directly the same for any liquid that isn't water, it's generally good enough for cooking to consider them equivalent

I hope you are having a wonderful day.

Tried making dolmas once when I got my first job and apartment. Didn't realize I should rinse the leaves or that the rice needed to be uncooked so it would expand inside the roll to make them plump. It was... not good.

usually we only use sour cream

Yeah you said it yourself it’s not just an armenian dish but part of their food culture, however the origins of the dish are in modern day Turkey, and the name literally means “stuffed” in Turkish, so it’s rather redundant to associate a clear Turkish dish with other countries. The whole world cooks pizza and pasta, but nobody says “Peruvian Pasta” do they.

You don’t have to cook the rice you can just mix it with meat then cook it

Its Turkish food. Dolma’s meaning is “filled” it comes from dolmak word which is fill.

you are so wrong. stuffed grape leaves is totally Armenian. ground lamb with tomato paste, rice, salt and pepper is called sarma. I have no idea what you are making. Dolma is the same mixture and one stuffs dried small eggplant, bell peppers, or hollowed out tomatoes and zucchini. fill the pot with either the stuffed grape leaves or the dolmas and sarma on top, fill up to about an inch below the top layer of sarma, let boil, and simmer until water is almost gone. We always had a side of madzoon (plain homemade yogurt) to dip in and eat away. Armenian civilization is the oldest on earth and we have been copied, but, this is ours and only ours. whatever it is you are making is an altered dish whose origin is our original sarma and dolma. One can also make yelanchi which is grape leaves stuffed with rice, onions and certain spices plus lemon and cooked once again like sarma. my mom's cooking was the best.
