bulgur

A whole grain made from cracked parboiled groats of several different wheat species, most often durum wheat. Because it has been parboiled, it cooks very quickly and offers a deeply nutty flavor and a satisfying, chewy texture, serving as the foundational ingredient in Middle Eastern tabbouleh. **Selection & Storage:** Available in different grinds (fine for salads, coarse for pilafs). Store in an airtight container in the pantry, or in the refrigerator to prolong its shelf life.
