The world is finally catching on to all the wonderful variety of grains available. Bulgar wheat is a particularly versatile one. Use it to thicken up soups and stews, turn salads into satisfying meals, or top it with veggies for a healthy grain bowl.
3 1/2 cups medium-grind bulghur wheat
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
7 cups water
Place bulghur in medium-size bowl. Bring salt and water to a boil, then pour it over the bulghur and stir briefly. Let stand until grains are swollen, chewy and almost all the water is absorbed, about 30 minutes.
Transfer to a fine-meshed sieve or a colander lined with cheesecloth and let drain for 10 minutes. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator.
Prepare this cauldron-size batch of bulghur on the weekend and use it in various recipes throughout the week for casseroles, salads and soups.
