Bulghur / Bulgur

Burghul, widely recognised as bulgur wheat, is a nutritious, high-fiber whole grain that is a cornerstone of Middle Eastern cuisine. Renowned for its versatility, it can seamlessly integrate into a variety of dishes.

Whether tossed in refreshing salads, served as a hearty side, or used as a base in pilafs, burghul offers a delightful texture and nutty flavor. Easy to prepare, it cooks in just 10 minutes or can be soaked for a firmer texture.
