Description:
Bulgur is made from the most nutritious type of wheat – durum. The grains are first cooked, then dried, and finally crushed to remove wheat bran and germ.
This grain enjoys widespread popularity in Middle Eastern countries, where it is a staple ingredient that often replaces potatoes or pasta in meals.
Bulgur contains more protein than fat and has a low glycemic index of 46, helping to prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar levels. It provides a lasting feeling of fullness and energy, making it a favorite among physically active individuals and those watching their weight.
Pregnant women and individuals with anemia are encouraged to include bulgur in their diet, as it helps replenish folic acid deficiencies.
The dietary fiber in bulgur plays a key role in supporting cardiovascular health by reducing LDL cholesterol levels.
Bulgur is a versatile ingredient featured in many oriental dishes and is the base for Turkey’s popular Tabbouleh salad. It can also be used in preparing snacks, desserts, stuffed vegetables, and main dishes. It pairs perfectly as a side for fish or meat.
