hi I am Turkish , Bulgur is our main staple food , more popular than rice .You can find lots of recipes made of bulgur ( mercimek köfesi -lentil meatballs , içli köfte , kısır are most famous of them. .It was interesting to see it as breakfast cereal - we don't eat this way usually our breakfast is cheese tea olives etc , cereals are not popular .We cook it as rice (bulgur pilavı ) with meat in broth and have yogurt ayran onions with it. loved your gorgonzola bulgur salad thank you
Bulgur makes the best fried rice!!! If you are ever too lazy to wait for rice, just fry cooked bulgur up with veggies, egg, and soy sauce and voila! Instant fried rice.
Thanks for the great info on bulgar!! I will try both recipes soon. I just started eating buckwheat and absolutely love it. Bulgar is next on the list. Maybe it's just me, but I'm eating these simple vitamin rich foods and can tell I'm doing my body good. It's such an impact that there is no way I could go back in eating the junk I use to consume. Thanks for sharing.
dee doc I agree... one of the biggest shifts I noticed in my health was when I decided to upgrade my food choices - I thin once we shift to real whole food, our bodies become very happy and its hard to ever go back!
Lebanese dish called pumpkin Kibbeh which is so yummy. Uses bulgar and pumpkin to make a dough and is stuffed with spinach spices and nuts and deep fried. It's so yummy
You are a very smart and kind woman Dani, because you showed me close to what the bulgur is. I've never known how did it look, or what it was. Thank you.
This was the only thing available at my local grocery store. The shoppers ran on everything else. I was actually there for barley. But ended up picking up bulgur. It's a new world we're living in. I'm excited to make it after watching your video!
Love the fact that the recipes are vegan!i absolutely love bulgur,where i come from we boil it add pomegranate,parsley,nuts,raisins,a little bit of powdered sugar and its delicious!
I'm Lebanese, I just subscribed and I have been binging your videos!!! I'm so glad you shone a spotlight on burgul 💌 tabboule is by far my favorite salad and traditionally burgul was eaten with all the stews in the Lebanese cuisine (nowadays it's rice). It has a low GI index and is extremely filling and delicious and is a cousin of freekeh the green wheat which is also healthy I also love the straberry tabboule recipe idea!!! It sounds like a really yummy innovation 😍😍😍
Thx for this wonderful explanation on Bulgar - I see different videos and some were cooking it on the stove and others just adding hot water - Cheers 🍁
I'm a lazy single male, so love a single saucepan deal: bulgar + water, simmer covered till it just starts drying out, add chopped watercress or other leaf salad, chopped fresh tomatoes, bit of lemon juice & serve with smoked salmon or just about anything. For extra excitement stir in any other salady stuff you like - chopped beetroot, bell peppers... And just one pan to wash:)
Hope you are no longer single and maybe cooking for two people now since you posted this 7 years ago - if you are still single then I hope you're still cooking delicious easy meals with bulgar - Cheers from Canada 🍁
very well explained 👆🏻 i cooked it my indian way .. roast some dry fruits cardamom cinamon with butter add burgol roast it for few mnts..till u get a nice aroma add some salt stir add jaggery or sugar stir till it melts add hot boiling water mix well.keep it for simmer for few mnts .. and its ready...😁
Lebaneese cuisine has a few Recepie using Burgul is the Correct way to say famous Lebaneese Tabouli salad eaten with romaine lettuce leaves or fork lol lettuce tastes best as a child I loved this mom made strawberry salad sound interesting thanks Dani for all your dedication to nutrition and sharing it with us
First time I heard about cracked bulgar wheat was today. I picked it up by accident thinking it was while wheat flour. I put it back. Decided to do some research. Now am sorry I didn't pick it up as we on full lockdown as of 8pm tonight until April 14😭 Excited to start this new food journey. Thanks for the the recipes Dani.
HI Danny I have some organic red bulgur wheat and I wanted to know is it safe to eat if i don't cook it,is it ok to put into a bowl and pour hot water over it and let it soak for 20 minutes?
Bulgur wheat is very common in the middle east especially Lebanon we make kebbeh with it and bulgur with tomatoes ( bourghoul a banadora ) just to name few
Thanks, Dani, for the info and the recipes. I'm have to say that you sound different, and I don't know if it's my settings, or if you changed something on your end. Please understand I'm not trying to be rude. It's just that you sound a bit staticy, almost as if you had to amp up your volume setting in post while editing. Maybe it's just my settings.
I take Bulgar Wheat and Hulled Barley and grind them together 50/50 by weight and use it as a base to make cookies. I use eggs, apple sauce and almond milk, no oil; then I add whatever I want depending on the kind of cookie I want. They come out amazing! Soft and tender! I never actually ate Bulgar Wheat any other way.
I like cook bulgur wheat the simple way that you showed by adding the hot water to the wheat and then when it's done I add a tablespoon of butter mix it in and there you go it is delicious
Hey dani! I really love your 101 videos, they're very informative and helpful. I was wondering if you could do a video on Tempeh / ways to prepare Tempeh. I've always used Tofu so i'm new to using Tempeh. I wanted to know if you had any tips on using Tempeh because it would be very useful. Thanks again and great video!
How do you use plain bulgur wheat, not ground into 1, 2, or 3? I have a big sack of cracked bulgur 🌾 wheat, but want to make tabouleh and falafel. Do I grind it into 1, or 2 before cooking it? This vid doesn’t really explain what to do with a 25 lb sack of it. Help!
You should do 101 video about millet (I believe thats the proper word for that ingredient on english) . Its similar to rice or quinoa,but not so present (on videos of this kind) . Maybe even something about barley or rye -those ingredients (like the first one) were here in these areas even before wheat...
My favorite way to eat bulgur is mixed with rice and eat it warm with some homemade greek yogurt. It's simple and delicious. And sometimes when we have some of the bulgur/rice mix leftover we warm it up in the microwave put a fried egg on top and eat it. Another simply delicious way to eat bulgur!
carulc You know I have ever actually worked with bitter melon but learned about it on the food network watching Chopped on night. If I ever see it at the store I will experiment with it and maybe do a 101 video for it!!
+rikki za It sure is! As long as you are not following a gluten free diet, bulgur is fine to consume daily. Checkout my Bulgur 101 video to learn more :) cleananddelicious.com/2015/06/30/bulgur-wheat-101-2-new-recipes/
I love bulgur wheat, in the turkish culture we use it to make bulgur rice - absolutely delicious , also to make salad , it's called kisir- so light and fluffy
could you please explain wheat to me? I'm confused. I've started baking whole-wheat bread instead of white bread thinking I was making a healthier choice for my family. now I'm told that it's just as bad as white and I should cut wheat out completely because it causes visceral fat. I'm feeling overwhelmed 😣
+Agatha Fehr Whole wheat flour is absolutely better then white flour simply because it is less processed and more intact. For some people wheat work just fine for their bodies, others not at all. And for the may in between, the poison is in the dose;). You just have to practice listening to your body and noticing what fEELS good for you. Hope that helps a bit!
I happened to stumble upon bulgur wheat one day when we decided to make tabouli. Now I eat it regularly because it’s so easy to make and nutritious!

Hi..i have coarse burghul but can i grind it to make it a fine burghul?thx
İ love bulgur!!!
How do you make it a last longer
The bulgur that we get looks much different. It's more circular and it has a darker brown color. Does that make a difference?
WereRhino The only thing I can think is if one is ground courser than the other, in which case it would take longer to cook!
How long will the last Last
Or How many years How many years
Hi Dani. Please consider featuring recipes using bitter melon.

And fiber
Is there a difference between the red kind and white, taste wise? thx

Can I use this like "overnight oatmeal"?
annette rumley I have never tried, but my guess is yes. Although it would probably be done a lot faster than oats.
The one I bought from Tesco doesn't look authentic like this one,mhhmm 🤔
