Notes

  • The fine bulgur I used only needed to be soaked in the hot broth for 5 minutes. However, there are different sorts of bulgur, some finer, some coarser. Coarser kinds need to be cooked differently. Please make sure you read the packet's instructions as well. Prepare the bulgur as indicated on the box and proceed with the recipe.
