What Is Bulgur Wheat?
Bulgur is an edible cereal grain made from dried, cracked wheat — most commonly durum wheat but also other wheat species.
It is parboiled, or partially cooked, so that it can be prepared relatively quickly. When cooked, it has a similar consistency to couscous or quinoa.
Bulgur is considered a whole grain, meaning that the entire wheat kernel — including the germ, endosperm and bran — is eaten.
Bulgur originated in the Mediterranean and can be traced back thousands of years. To this day, it’s a staple ingredient in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes.
