PLAIN BULGUR
Bulgur is a light whole wheat grain that is a good substitute for rice. It can be cooked or soaked. *I prefer cooked but am posting direction to both here. Have a friend that is new to whole grain cooking and has asked if I would post some basic cooking directions.

PLAIN BULGUR PILAF
Steps:
- Bring the water or stock to the boil in a large pan and pour in the bulgur. Add salt and pepper (taking into account the saltiness of the stock) and cook, covered, over low heat for 10-15 minutes, until it is tender and all the liquid is absorbed, adding a little water if it becomes too dry.
- Stir in the butter or oil and leave off heat, covered, for 15 minutes, to allow the wheat to swell and become tender before serving.
- Variations
- For a grand and delicious pilaf, stir in 2-3 tablespoons toasted pine nuts or slivered almonds and 2 tablespoons raisins when you pour in the bulgur.
- For burghul bil shaghria, use half the amount of bulgur with 1/2 pound dry vermicelli broken into small pieces in your hands and toasted in a dry frying pan or under the broiler, stirring often, until browned.
HOW TO COOK BULGUR
While we love bulgur in a traditional tabbouleh, this high-fiber, quick-cooking grain can do so much more. Try it in our California-Style Veggie Burgers or serve it as a tasty, healthy side dish with dinner tonight.

BASIC BULGUR
Bulgur comes in different sizes and textures, but for the basic kind they sell in the bulk aisle where I shop, this cooking technique works perfectly. This can be dressed up in all kinds of different ways -- buy making it with stock instead of water, by adding sauteed onions, by throwing in chopped veggies and dressing at the end and making a salad; whatever. This is just the basic technique. You can change the amounts to whatever you want -- the important thing is just that you have twice as much water as bulgur.
