BRIGITTE'S TABBOULEH SALAD
Brigitte Bardot (for those of you who don't know she was an old French actress who was a vegetarian) loved this tabbouleh salad which is closer to a couscous dish. You can try it if you liked her, or you can try it because it tastes awesome! Minty, lemony and absolutely refreshing. Good for picnics. Refrigeration time is not included in prep time. From today's Sunday NY Times.

TABBOULEH SALAD
Steps:
- Cover by 1 inch with cold water: 1/2 cup bulgur wheat.
- Soak for 20 minutes to plump the grains, then drain in a sieve. While the bulgur is soaking, prepare the other ingredients. Chop: 1 1/2 large bunches of parsley (about 1 1/2 cups, chopped), 1 bunch of mint (about 1/3 cup, chopped), 1 bunch of scallions, white and green parts (about 1 cup, chopped).
- Mix the herbs in a large bowl with: 2 ripe medium tomatoes, cored and diced small.
- With your hands, squeeze the soaked bulgur to remove as much water as possible and mix it into the chopped herbs and tomatoes, along with: Juice of 1 lemon, Salt, 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil.
- Mix well. Taste and add more salt, lemon juice, or oil if needed. Let rest for about 1 hour before serving to allow the bulgur to absorb the flavors. If you like, serve garnished with romaine leaves to use as scoops for eating the salad.

- Place bulgur in a small bowl and cover with boiling water by 1". Let sit until bulgur is soft and tender, 20–30 minutes.
- Finely chop tomatoes and transfer to a large bowl (juices and all). Add lemon juice and bulgur to bowl; season with salt, then toss to combine.
- Rinse parsley under cold water and shake to get rid of excess water. Working in batches and starting at stem end, finely slice stems and leaves with your sharpest knife, making one even pass. This is so the parsley doesn’t get bruised or wilt and stays light in the salad (you should have about 4 cups).

- Cook or soak the bulgur until tender according to package directions. Drain off any excess water, and set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, combine the diced cucumber and tomato in a medium bowl with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Stir, and let the mixture rest for at least 10 minutes, or until you’re ready to mix the salad.
- To prepare the parsley, cut off the thick stems. Then, finely chop the parsley and remaining stems—you can do this by hand, but it’s much easier in a food processor with the standard “S” blade. Process 1 bunch at a time (it should yield about 1 cup chopped), transferring the chopped parsley to a large serving bowl before proceeding with the next.
- Add the cooled bulgur, chopped fresh mint (if using) and green onion to the bowl of parsley. Strain off and discard the cucumber and tomato juice that has accumulated in the bottom of the bowl (this ensures that your tabbouleh isn’t too watery). Add the strained cucumber and tomato to the bowl.
