Bulgur (Bourgal) is a versatile, whole grain that is made from cracked wheat, known for its quick cooking time and nutty flavor. It is a staple in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and North African cuisines, commonly used in salads like tabbouleh, pilafs, soups, or as a side dish. Bulgur is rich in fiber, protein, and essential nutrients, making it a healthy, hearty alternative to rice or couscous. Available in different grades (fine, medium, coarse), it is a perfect ingredient for both savory and sweet dishes.
