Bulgur, Cooked

Bulgur, Cooked

EverydayCooked

Bulgur is a precooked whole wheat grain made by parboiling, drying, and cracking wheat kernels, resulting in a quick-cooking staple of Middle Eastern cuisine. This nutty-flavored grain provides more fiber than most refined grains while offering notable amounts of manganese and plant-based protein. The cooked grains maintain a light, chewy texture ideal for salads like tabbouleh, pilafs, and stuffed vegetables, retaining more nutrients than processed wheat alternatives due to its whole grain preparation.
