Bulgur
Bulgur is a cereal made from processed hard wheat varieties. It is cleaned, parboiled, dried, and divided into small particles. This processing gives the cereal a unique taste and aroma that sets it apart from other grains.
Bulgur has a light, neutral flavor that easily takes on seasonings and pairs well with various ingredients.
Moreover, it cooks quickly as it is pre-processed. This cereal can be stored for an extended period without losing its nutritional properties, making it a convenient pantry staple.
Bulgur is a high-quality, nutritious food product that is easily digested and beneficial for the cardiovascular and digestive systems.
It contains essential minerals such as magnesium, iron, B vitamins, vitamin E, and complex carbohydrates. Its glycemic index is optimal for maintaining a healthy body or shedding excess fat if needed.
To prepare bulgur porridge, start by rinsing the cereal under cold water.
Then, bring water to a boil in a saucepan.
Add the rinsed bulgur to the boiling water, reduce the heat, and cover with a lid.
Cook for 10-15 minutes until the bulgur absorbs the water and becomes tender. You can season it with salt and spices to taste and add vegetables or herbs for flavor variety.
